Time of the Year!

Fact 1: It is recession time, hence we should be saving.
Fact 2: Because we need to save, we should be "bargain hunting"
Fact 3: Sales are perfect for said "bargain hunting"

so ladies, put on your armour!
practice your arm and wrist manouvers (for elbowing people out of the way and swiftly picking up all those beautiful (cheap-er) items!)

and because i am quite gracious when it comes to supporting my fellow shopaholics...here are some MAJOR tips for you to avoid the massive queues at sale time.

1. scout before a sale. KNOW the size you want.
2. if that is not possible, wear something layered (spaghetti strap and cardigan). this is to avoid queuing up at the changing rooms! just pick your items, go to the nearest mirror (any reflective surface will do)...and try them on while keeping your spaghetti strap on. Note: A whole lot of imagination is required here.
3. when all else fails...make the best guess-timate and take a gamble. if it doesn't fit...sell it to a friend...or make it as a gift ;)
   

and so, my bevy beauties...here are THE sales to go to...

MNG SALE

it was just wondering when the mng sale was going to happen. simply because they have not had one at all this year!

then, as i was walking in the curve with the husband last night, my jaw practically dropped when i saw the sale sign at MNG - 'Up to 50% Off!'.

so ladies, what are you waiting for! go go go!

La Senza sale

I also received this SMS last night...

Tod's Sale

i have always been a fan of this designer. never could afford it, until my mama-in-law helped me purchase the mary janes RM800 cheaper!

and now, they are ALSO having their end-of-season sale!

i have no idea the extent of their sales (hoping that it is 70% :p). so, i WILL check them out when i can. today is a bit tight (MNG sale, La Senza Sale and get stuff for Krabi trip tomorrow...all in one hour).

but, i think i still have time next week. i would really love to get these...

though...this is really low priority at the moment.
oh yes, another tip during this recession period...prioritise, prioritise, prioritise...

in my personal opinion...it is better to buy MORE stuff with RMx than...ONE item with the same amount of RMx. :D
