Winter Clothing

Today, I took half day leave to do some banking stuff and shop for winter clothing. Of coz I did some paktoring (dating) with my hubby without the children. 😀 I will be going to US for business trip and that place is having winter now, I heard below 0°C. A month ago, I heard some snow storm over there. I am a bit worried.

Anyway, we went to a few shops in Queensbay Mall to survey. One of the shops did sell close to what we wanted. Others have limited choices. The shop is called Universal Traveler, take note. It looked to me all the sales assistant there are new. One of them keep following my hubby closely, he was a bit annoyed. New SA always does that, not sure to scare away their customer or what.

I am trying my luck to ask them to give discount. He replied no discount. Another shop, as I was browsing, the SA came and said this have 10% discount. This is what I called “good customer service”. Never mind, we took the one we wanted and asked him for a new piece. He went to the store and came out with another color. He said the color we chose is the last piece. I attempt again and said “Since it is the last piece, you should give me a discount, it has been displayed. Furthermore, lots of people have tried it.” He replied “No, not many people come in here”. Opps, indirectly telling me business is not that good. :giggles: I asked for the manager but he was no where to be found.

My hubby couldn’t wait anymore, we decided to pay. As the new SA cashier was punching the machine, I kepoh their catalogue. Wow, I think God was helping me. I flipped to the last page and saw a promotion on the one I have selected. It has an offer saying I get a free long john with that piece I am purchasing. I questioned the SA, he kept quiet, as if he didn’t know what I was talking about. I didn’t make a scene, just went and tried out the long john. :snooty: I know what you are thinking off, I could have just walked out. I didn’t want to waste time and petrol mah.
