  • La Sardina, Golden Half & A Pocket Hole

    4.24.2013

    La Sardina & Golden Half which is your poison?

    Just want to share an exciting haul today from Bargain Corner, One Utama. I was on my way back from the post office when I saw Rip Curl Sales banner. Though to check out the bikinis there, the moment I enter the shop I saw a rack full of accessories or stationary (so I thought). Upon further "inspection" my heart drop from heaven when I saw lomo cameras at the next rack! Next to it a big sign that says "50% OFF". I asked the promoter if this is for real and why it was being sold 1/2 off? was there something wrong with the cameras? She says it's a clearance and that they were not spoiled and even comes with warranty. On top of that as a One Card Member, I get 10% additional discount off! *omg screams* Finally I am about to realize my dreams of owning a lomo camera, something that I have always imagine having during my college days. Couldn't afford it then, couldn't afford it now but at this sale? come 'ere to mama my babies!

    I'll take you through what to expect in this sale but I can't tell you the prices! I can only give you the range which is after 50% off you can lomo cameras from RM80 onwards. There's also film packs, accessories, collectibles like badges, sampler books. I'll go check them out again tomorrow! Diana, Fish Eye cameras and limited edition cameras are all gone and this sale started last month and will be ending this month.

    Golden Half is fun to play with!

    See anything you like? drop me a pm to ask. I most probably could identify them for you coz I asked so many questions to the promoter. Hot items that you should get? the LC Wide, Spinner, Ring Flash, Diana 35mm Back and Lomokino according to promoter. If you're a beginner she says you can start with Holga or Pop 8 camera (which is under RM100 after discount). For professionals she highly recommend the LC Wide which comes in a black box. I was quite fascinated with that but urm I'm only a newbie so it won't do me good owning such an expensive lomo camera at the moment. Don't want it to be collecting dust after one time playing haha. I was really bummed that Diana was sold out and that I missed the Golden Half limited edition designs like Hello Kitty and Chelsea Maika. I finally decided to get a Golden Half original (dam good choice too because it's quite a popular design if you google Golden Half out!) after reading A Beautiful Mess's review on her Golden Half experience.

    Golden Half Designs

    really like the Chelsea Maika LE design

    but I'm also really happy I picked this design yay!

    Hope you enjoy my haul experience and sneak peek at this sale. Really recommend anyone who has been wanting to get a lomo camera to come here to start picking one out to bring back (like adoption haha). I really think Golden Half is a good camera to own mainly because it's a fun camera that takes 2 in 1 split pictures. For a roll of 36 films you can capture 72 pics. I "sapu" the last remaining sets of La Sardina, I don't know why I have this fixated lust for La Sardina. It's because of Caroline showing off her sardin camera last 2 years ago in office that got me hooked on sardin camera haha. Serious.

    19. Then, she would definitely currently have

      Web stores are a smart way to get these bags.

    20. I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the layout of your blog?
      Its very well written; I love what youve got to say.
      But maybe you could a little more in the way of
      content so people could connect with it better.
      Youve got an awful lot of text for only having one or 2 images.
      Maybe you could space it out better?

      buy. If people want to purchase nearly every product so all the detail is addressed
