If you’re a shopaholic like me, you’ll want to subscribe to my RSS feed to find out about the latest in shopping.Yesterday I went to a warehouse sale with high hopes of snagging some clothes for the New Year. In fact, I had my girls in tow so they can pick out their own stuff.
When [...]

Many stores have already started their year-end sales. This is the time of year when I usually shop for my New Year clothes for myself and my kids.
What I’ve noticed though is that on many items, they only have limited stock. The other day, I bought a pair of shoes each for my girls. We [...]

I guess, I’ve come to expect that renewing my car insurance always comes with a gift. Over the years, I’ve received umbrellas, bags and towels, amongst other things, at the end of my insurance transaction.
These gifts are okay except that they come branded with the name of the insurance company which pretty much renders them [...]

My friend was here last week visiting from the States. Of course, I had my big plans to take her shopping.
But her sister was also here from overseas and they hadn’t seen each other in years and obviously they had lots of catching up to do.
Besides my friend is not much of a shopaholic, unlike [...]

I went to the Jusco Member’s Day sale last Wednesday. How could I resist? It’s one of the best sales in town and it only comes around like maybe once or twice a year.

I’m looking in my crystal ball and I’m seeing some shopping sprees coming up… let’s see,.. in the near, yes, very near future.
Alas, I’m so going to hand on to my wallet and try not to overspend. Yep, times are bad but my friend will be visiting from the US so I’m expecting that we’ll [...]

Two years after the Playstation 3 was first launched in the US and Japan, it’s finally arrived at our shores. More surprisingly, they managed to build up a bit of hype surrounding the launch here at 1 Utama last Saturday.

Apparently some folks had been camping outside 1 Utama two nights ahead of the launch. I [...]

One of my pet peeves is the traffic. I hate being caught in traffic jams. But lately, I can’t help but notice how quiet the roads and malls are.
Am I missing something, or is it the effect of the weakening global economy? I’ve been reading that businesses are reporting a slowdown and consumers are keeping [...]

I haven’t been shopping much lately. Or rather I have not embarked on my year-end shopping yet.
Yes, I know that sales are over but I’m expecting that it will be a matter of time before stores will start marking down their prices even further to compete for the limited consumer cash.
So I’m kinda holding out [...]
