It's a winlose situation

Here's the deal. Whenever Ayman wants to go out for his Winning Eleven Tournament, I get to shop. yes, i get to shop.

Weekend is the only time we get to spend time together as a family. To me, its very important to have a family time as often as possible because in this fast phase of environment, our child needs to learn the importance of having a family time. If us as parents cant spend time with our kids, dont be surprise 20 years to come these kids will definitely have the same idea about us. We will be left alone to die. thats a bit exaggerated. but you know what I mean. So, as berat hatinya nak bagi duit to shop, it is the price to pay for the for that time not spent with the family. hehe.

Ayman is really into this gaming thing, all I can say is, its boys and their toys. This is the modern world. We grew up with computer games and nitendos. I'm sure a lot of wives out there dont find it fancy that their husbands are playing console games but I learn to give some time for him to enjoy his free time. And I also make some effort to like games as well. I guess having been brought up in the land of the rising sun, these things are just something really common. I read manga, watch anime and play games occasionally. So yeah, gaming is no biggie for me. Ayman said I'm a game freak, I just hate to admit it >_<

So here is what happened yesterday. My shopping spree was FABULOUS. I love Times Square. Its the new Sg Wang. I mean, where else on earth you can shop for like RM5 for a top? Seriously, its heaven. Tho there are a lot of jinjang clothes, you have to be very selective about what youre buying.

The thing about shopping in all these shops is you have to have cash. I hate carrying a lot of cash with me so thats a set back. If youre on a budget, I guess its best for you to browse around the 10 floors of shops to look for the best price and the things that you really want to buy before actually paying for them. Its a lot of work. But if your on unlimited budget, feel free to just grab any of them cos they are so freaking CHEAP!!

My fav shop would be PS boutique on level 5 and here is what I bought
The khakis pants only cost me RM39.90 and it comes with the belt. You may get it for RM30-35 from other boutiques but I dont think it comes with the belt. Most probably the belt is worth RM7 but I dont have the time to buy them separately. Also I love the pleats on the pants. The material doesnt look too cheap so I guess its worth the price. The only thing about the pants is that the sewing doesnt look too good from the inside but hopefully tak koyak T_T. most probably it wont be happening cos the fabric is quite good.

I got this for only RM24.90 and I find that its the cheapest compared to other boutiques. Its really kinda out dated to be wearing this cos its so 2009! Anyway, I bought it anyway cos I figure I might use it when I start working tomorrow. yikes!

Guess how much this worth? I got it for RM16.90 I saw something similar in Forever 21 but it was so expensive I dont think I'd spend that much of money for it.

A set of bangles cost me only RM5.90 All this while shopping in PRIMARK was really cheap but I guessed wrong.

I bought these for RM7.90 each. You can find something similar in Forever21 and it costs about RM15 or more.

My maid bought herself a really blingbling belt and a dress and everything comes to a total of RM 163.20 T_T

Move on to another shop, it was really hard for me to really shop cos Amyra was running everywhere and my maid wanted to shop as well. So, I just grab from another boutique which I find quite cheap and also lets you try on their clothes. Usually, these boutiques wont allow you to try on their clothes so basically its buy or not. The boutique is called Fortune boutique and its on the 2nd level.

This top is only RM12.90 I thought it fit me well but it turned out to be just right. If i were to put on weight, this is definitely to be donated.

My white top similar to this got stains on it. I love the top so badly I have to have another one to replace it. I got that one previously from AceWin in Jusco AU3 for RM25. This only cos me 13.90 but the sleeves are shorter.

RM18.90 for this sleeveless top. I didnt know it was 19bucks til i got home and realized that I spent that much for this top. I thought it was only 15bucks. >_< thats the thing about shopping in TS, you see too many things your brains get so confused!! Anyway, I think the top is cute but it didnt look really good on me.

I cant remember where I got this lace top. It was only RM15 and I figure I have nothing to lose if I buy it. Turned out, I lose every single cent of that 15 bucks I spent cos it was too SMALL for me. Definitely belong to my DONATION box. If I was a petite, it would totally be WORTH it.

In total, I spent RM164.1 for a pair of khakis pants, 4 tops, a cardigan and few accessories. It was definitely a WIN for me cos I spent so little for a lot of things. Too bad Ayman came home with a sad face cos he lost.
