After having a scrumptious meal at The Manhattan Fish Market, I went to survey what other items that are also offered at marked down prices. Along the way, I stopped by to watch the exhibition for the new release of Iphone 3GS that are being held. They are offering passer-bys to try out the new iphones. Looking at all those Iphones, I was so tempted to try one myself. Being a person with an average income of less than RM 1K however, it feels as though I'm not qualified to even see the Iphones. ~sigh~... Moving on.
Well, my main intention was not to look at the Iphones. I was planning to visit the store that is near the Iphone exhibition which is this:
Apart from food, I'm also a fan of watches. I have been aspiring to get my hands on a swatch for a long time. Here are some of the watches I have want so badly all this while.
Heracles
Cold Hour
Quaterman
After scouting the price of the watches and asking the promoter on duty, I was quite disappointed as there were no discounts offered for the watches. Looks like I have to delay my intention of buying a watch for a while. So, I walked away and continued my shopping spree for clothes.
After further scouting, I decided to shop at ISETAN as they have more choices and discount on clothes. Here are some of the clothes I bought.
A Croc Creek T-shirt
Original Price:
After discount only RM35.70
A black Emillio Valentino T-Shirt
Original Price:
After discount only RM49.50
A white slack
Original Price:
After discount only RM38.97
After shopping for the clothes, I still RM34.80 left in my budget. I still feel something is missing from this trip. Hmm... what is it?

Well, of course. Books!!! How can I go home without visiting Kinokuniya? After looking around trying to find the book I wanted, I was stopped by a title that felt so nostalgic.
Slumdog Millionaire
What is the price?
RM34.80!!! Just the amount of budget I have left!!!! LOL So coincidence!
After flipping through a few pages, I decided to buy it. I knew that the Popular Book Festival is coming soon but I just can't resist to buy this book. It was love at first read. The book has a twist that is completely different from the movie.
At the payment counter, I decided to try something bold. For the first time, I paid via Visa using my new debit card and it worked! I was so excited in trying out my new visa debit card that I almost left without taking my book after paying. The cashier hasto remind me to my book along with me. Another customer who was at the scene also laughed when she saw the incident. Alamak, so embarassing.....
At the end of my shopping spree, this is all I had left.
Initial Budget........... RM200
- Lunch......................RM41.05
-Clothes.....................RM124.15
-Book.........................RM34.80

Remaining budget....RM0

LOL!!! I really used up all my budget!!!! No more. No less.
Well, that's my shopping experience during my semester break. Time to earn back the money I used.
See you next time.

I'm not going to talk about iPhone here, all I can tell is that iPhone 3GS is so limited in Malaysia that you have to wait for 30 days to get one.
Well, I don't care much about watches. Still wearing the same casio digital watch bought 6 years ago (Battery depleted today, have to recharge under the sunlight).
The clothes looks fine to me, nothing I can comment about. (The clothes I usually wear is a plain colored Giordano, bought 3 for S$15)
The book, nothing to say.
Can you pay online using the debit card, like a normal credit card? One thing, you didn't reveal how much credit is inside the debit card.
