Lunch time was spent at Laneige Private Sales @ Raffles City. Thebuys were much better than expected. I am not a huge fan of this Korean skincare brand but bought a couple of their stuff when i visited Korea. The tiny room was packed and the crowd was in a frenzy. Understandly, coz the skincare was going at $10/bottle while makeup items are priced at 2 for $10. Yours truly is a fan of whitening & premature aging pdts now so bought essences, eye creams all at $10 each! My bottle of liquid foundation only cost $5 (UP $45!). Imagine the amt of profit FMCG companies make... Prices are rock bottom & they still accept payment by VISA (which they have to pay 2% transfer fee for every transaction!) Woohoo!!! Good buys galore!
Speaking of V-day, i was reading an article in "My Paper" this morning praising Singaporean men for being generous on such commercial occasions. They are willing to spend $500 - $1000 to pamper their loved ones with pricy candlelight dinners or gifts of love. Hmm, this brings me back to my 1st & most memorable V-day with KL. That fella brought me to Equinox many yrs back when we were still studying. Haha, i didn't know where he got the funds from but though the food sucked & the experience just affirmed that we aren't cut out for fine dining, i still look back at the experience with a smirk on my face. Well, needless to say, V-days after that just went downhill & guess what, our friend totally forgot abt it & after some prompting, finally dropped a quick greeting of V-day. Men... they are like the hairs on their head - quality goes DOWNHILL as the yrs go by.
