    8.23.2008

    I decided to be adventurous and go to Loreal Sales.

    I hereby name this land - Miusia!

    Crowd Time Line

    ---------------------------------------------
    note that although I was first to arrive, Loreal Management for crowd control is still a failure as they had 4 waiting line, 1 door = 4 lines rushing into 1 door which made me not first anymore!
    Btw there's VIP Line as well (they get to go in at 9am) n a lot of people complain about the "VIP abusing their privileges to bring guests". Some of their complains:
    1. wasn't it max 1 guest? why some people bring up to 5?
    2. y vip able to bring in guest inside, n then come out again to bring more guest?
    3. y vip able to come out and bring in guest from queuing line?
    4. y already close vip time, still let vip in? (witness this in front of me)
    well u know it doesn't really matter as the sales was expensive and crampy.

    ---------------------------------------------

    Finally inside at 10am

    Going Home

    7am - 1pm I think I must be out of my mind but you know what, I had an enjoyable time taking pics and price listing! it was such an adrenaline rush to beat the crowd and thanks to Brenda (a new friend I met from sns's site) we chatted until 10am and tried to help each other to scout for our must-buy list. After we came out at 11am, it didn't take us long to go back in to scout around again for deals. We finally came out at 1pm and say our goodbyes, but i think Brenda is going back again to see if they price slash before closing time! lol.

    All in all having to wake up at 6am, take taxi to Park Royal Hotel and park myself on the carpet at 7am to just realize again that Loreal sales are still pricey as compare to other perfume warehouse sales. It's just averagely 30-40% off and this sale was much smaller compare to their previous sales. Crowd Control still needs improving and they need to train their Bouncers to be more strict than to be push around by VIPS (who kept coming out to bring in more of their friends). The VIPS also got to enter early at 9am while all of us waited for our turn. I would like to be a VIP too! how do I apply Loreal? haha.

    {tubbies}

    OH and not to forget a few girls who had asked me to help them get stuffs were all disappointed as I couldn't get them anything they wanted. Well all except for tubbies whom I manage to get:
    1. Armani Code Set (75ml+lotion+shower) rm200 (it was the LAST one)
    2. Ralph Lauren Turquoise 100ml - rm150 (not too bad it's 100ml)
    3. Ralph Lauren Hot 100ml - rm50 <-- this one cheap
    4. Lancome Juicy Set of 4 lippies for rm50!

      (tubs turn down Ralph Lauren Romance as it was too pricey)
    I bought Juicy Bar Dessert Set x 2 for myself as I couldn't find any perfume to my liking, they're dam adorable as a gift set ^_^

    4. i nearly fainted! i am taking note, must refer you to pyschologist. hahaha

      but nice, it's unfortunate they don't have safari, i would love to get that at a discount, some other days perhaps. oh, thanks for the look out.

      if got CK, then, any one also i would ask you to buy D, hahaha. can nvr go wrong with ck fragrance but not confident on polo range, twice D the edt not up to expectation (romance for men and double black - don't whether it's pirated or original, though bought in departmental store...)
