Today, I plan to go shopping! I'm buying a gift fir a friend and hopefully, a pair of pants for me. I'd also like to chek out some flats, perhaps I can buy a pair too.hihihi.. It's Mother's day on Friday here in Thailand because it's the birthday of the queen. So that goes without saying (but I'll say it anyway hihi) that there's discounts in every mall here. Yay! I'm going to my happy place in just a little while!hahahah! Hiw about you guys? What's the last item you bought for yourself?

Hi my dear! I gotta say, I enjoyed myself very much this afternoon. Even if it rained when I went home, I didn't care since I was able to buy a new flats. I think I went a bit over-bored though because Now I don't have the budget for a new pair of pants! Nyahaha! Oh well, i'll hust enjoy my flats with my shorts,hihihi..

Flats and shorts is really comfy..I prefer that suit! I'm not really into pants, if it's not required at work I wont bother to buy pants..... Oxygen ayala malls got sale on their pants,it cost around 1,199php and on sale for 199php only so I grabbed one..

pants plus flats is a good combination for me, very comfy plus having this feeling of always "on the go". i wear those during shopping days, meetings friends even when dating =)

Oh hold on i'll get my passport ready and i'll fly to Thailand now, it's Friday! Oh i envy you. My friend works in Thailand and she told me how cheap everything is there and she could practically hoard! I envy her. The last item i bought for myself was a pair of Fitflop. It cost me $90 for a pair of flipflop only it's much better than just an ordinary flipflop since it's brand is Fitflop and they say it helps you get that toned legs and bum.

It's a costly brand. It's expensive because they paid Kris Aquino a good deal for wearing their brand.hahaha! That's just what I think, hihihi... So what does your friend do here? She's right it's always on sale here. I'm guessing there are big sales every quarter. That's one of the reasons why I love staying in this country hahahaha!

Kris Aquino has nothing to do with it lol! It was already expensive when it came out here in the Phil. I think it's 60-90 euro even before. Haven't heard of Kris endorsing it either but Oprah Winfrey swore by it in her show and I saw the very preggy Alyssa Milano in her twitter account using the same. My friend is a teacher there!

Good Buys - Shopping Spree
I do understand your excitement. Shopping is what we women do love and enjoy. I love to shop especially during SALE days. I can spend the whole day shopping without getting tired at all. I think most women are with me in this kind of feelings. I don't know why shopping makes me really alive and happy! Maybe because it gives me the opportunity to buy new things for myself and for my family after a week of hard work. I think I deserve some break after all and a good break for me is a whole day of shopping!

I did forget to bring along the flipper and scuba diving mask so while out in Arkansas I went shopping for a new set. There was no way I was going to forgo it so ended up picking up a new set. While there I did pick up some water shoes for our little one too. lol

I bought some hair items last week. I have bought some new outfits this summer. I would really rather lose weight and fit my old ones. I hope you had a wonderful time shopping. Isn't it great how the stores always find a reason for a sale.

Hahahah! How right you are GG! It's usually sale season here though. Perhaps it's because of the foreigners coming in this country. Well, it's all good for me...hihihiih I love sale so much!hahah! By the way, good luck with your weight loss!

Today I made my boyfriend go to the thrift store with me. I know, most people think it's gross to thrift shop, but I LOVE it! And I never buy anything unless it's in good condition and I know that the deal I'm getting is worth it. Like I don't go to the thrift store and buy something I know is used from Walmart. What's the point? I could have bought it brand new for not much more and got more cost per wear out of it! But, today I got some GOOD finds. I found two Old Navy long sleeved men's shirts. The one is a dressy type brown with white pin striped on it and the other is a flannel light brown and cream one. My boyfriend looked them over and informed me he would NOT wear brown. I smiled and told him they weren't for him, they are for me. When it get's cold in the winter and I want to just throw something on I like to wear a man's button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up. It's comfy, but it can look pulled together if I have a nice stock of bright girlie tank tops to go underneath and unbutton to show the contrast. Then accessorize away! While I was at it I found an adorable Old Navy bag that is brown with little white polka dots on it. It's really cute and I needed something a bit bigger than the purse I have been carrying because stuff starts piling up and spilling out. As it get's colder and starts to rain and snow more I will need to purchase another bag that I don't have to worry about getting wet and ruining the stuff inside. But, for now this will handle nicely. I got all this for $11.00 which I think it a very good deal since the two shirts would have been at least $20.00 each brand new and the purse would probably be about $10.00 or $15.00 brand new.

That's a very nice deal dismal! Looks like you came in the right time. I also go to thrift shops here, but I seldom get anything good. Oh well! At least, you got lucky!

Hi! :) You're a Thai? Amazing.. I like Thai people cuz they're awesome. I have lots of thai friends. (Just so you know!) I don't literally go shopping outside. But I always do online shopping and the last item I did bought online is my digital camera! So far so good! Happy Birthday to your Queen!

It's their queen, edss..hihihi I'm Filipino, I just live here in Thailand. Anyway, I'm curious where you shop. I'd like to shop online as well so I can use my paypal money direct. I don't like to buy from ebay, though. Do you know a trusted website?

Gotta love shopping! Especially with your girlfriends out in the big shopping centers and browsing your favorite brands. Because of school and prices just endlessly rising. I have decided to shop online on Ebay! The stuff there is cheap and I don't even need to leave the confines of my house. I recently brought a razor comb to cut and layer my hair. I was looking for that everywhere in the shopping centers until I came across a super cheap one online.

I don't trust ebay sellers. How would you know that they're really shipping your orders Triple0? That's why I go to malls to shop. Yeap, I do enjoy shopping even if its just window shopping!hahah! However, I hardly get to shop with friends since all of them are in the Philippines. When I shop, it's usually my hubby that I'm with.hehehe.. He's not really that fun to be wheb we're in a mall. Hahahah!
