HAUL: Fashion, Jewelries and more!

Me and my friend Mia, went on an early Holiday shopping for gifts and little trinkets that we need for the upcoming Christmas. However, we could not resist buying things for ourselves. So here are the things that I got from various shopping trips this October 2012.

Skirt Jumper - P240

Bag - P350

We liked the jumper and bag so much that we both bought it, but in different colors. 

 As you can see, I went spike and studs crazy with my jewelry purchases. They were really inexpensive. It was no more than 200 pesos per item.

 I also bought a pack of these Velcro hair grips. The whole pack was for 30 pesos and it is really useful in keeping hair off your face when putting on makeup in the mornings. It doesn't leave dents on the hair unlike hair ties.

 I have also re-stocked my toiletries essentials because they were on a buy one take one offer.

Pinkie Swear BB foundation in 02 -  P299 

 Nivea Anti-Perspirant - P179

Watson's Warm Vanilla Sugar body lotion - P109

I'm definitely happy about my purchases and I'm excited to try the Pinkie Swear BB foundation. Expect  a review on the foundation soon. 

Rant: Bad Customer Service

Bad services makes this kitty very grumpy!!!

The other day I went to one of the oldest shopping stores we have in my city to purchase an outfit for our office celebration and OMG I just experienced the worst customer service in my life. I observed that the sales person assisting me was slow to pick-up on instructions and almost hesitant to accommodate customers. Well I don't know if she was having a bad day, or if she was distracted or if she was just plain lazy so i decided to keep my cool and patiently waited for her. But after a while, I thought to myself that how an earth can this store hire someone as incompetent as this girl so I decided to look around for another girl to help me with my purchase but I found out almost all of the store's employees were like her, so unmotivated. 

As I was paying at the cashier, there were three girls handling the cash register and the first girl was checking the merchandise against the slip issued by the previous sales girl and it took her 10 minutes to check all of the merchandise because she was busy chatting with the other girls at the counter. Not only that, she had also trouble checking the prices against the slip so I had to dictate to her the prices just to speed things up. The two other girls did nothing to help her and just waited for her to finish while chatting before the second girl could enter it to the store's system and the last girl could put in a bag.  I mean one girl could surely do all of their functions if she was motivated enough but I just don't know what going on with that store.

I'm sure that no employer would hire slow and incompetent person but from what I had observed its as if those girls have no motivation to work. They did not show any interest in assisting customers and the customers had to call them out just to get help. I was really annoyed and I swore never again to return to that store. Its too bad because they really sell inexpensive products, but customer service was really horrible.

Bangkok Travel Part 4: Food and Shopping

Thai street food... Had this for lunch when we went to Chatuchak weekend market. I would suggest that before you buy street food, do observe how the food was prepared.

Breakfast buffet at our hotel had a vast variety of food choices. My favorite were the scrambled egg and the french toast with sausage and fruits. Yum!

We had a really hard time finding fast food in Bangkok because most of the fast food are only available at malls like Central World and Siam, so for the most part we had to dine in local restaurants. The food was okay but they have those spicy sauce that doesn't suite my taste. 

Ice cream feast! Super sweet desserts.

Great for Fashion Shopping. Spent one whole day perusing the stores and haggling for wholesale price. You can get cute and fashionable clothes at very cheap price if you know how to haggle. One down side is you cannot try on the clothes but the store attendants are very good at recommending sizes for you body type.

This mall is famous for their gadgets.

Was so tired after shopping but it was worth-it. If I ever go back to Bangkok I would definitely shop again at Platinum mall.
