Not about sales but about shopping



Warehouse Sale – Gap, Banana Republic, Guess, La Senza MORE!

Yes folks! Its that time again for the FJ Benjamin warehouse clearance sale. The last time I was there, I was one of the early birds and I only picked up 1 Banana Republic Dress at RM200. Not cheap.

However, I like going to this sale to pick up nice cheap(ish) La Senza underwear and pyjamas. I wonder if La Senza have wondered why their stores never seem to have people walking in to buy products. Its because everyone is waiting for the warehouse sale to stock up!! Haha…

I offered some tips for those planning to go shopping at clothes warehouse sales before but here’s another:-

  • Try to wear contact lenses instead of glasses. In the process of pulling on clothes over your head in public and in the rush of trying on clothes so you can do some serious damage to your glasses. In the last sale I saw a girl’s glasses drop off her face while she pulled off the top she was trying on. Lucky for her it fell onto a soft pile of clothes or it would have been an expensive shopping trip!

This latest FJ Benjamin sale comes at a good time – just before Christmas so now’s a great time to pick up Christmas presents at discounted prices! Great especially for kids wear and watches and underwear.

The presale for HSBC credit card holders is on 28 November 2008 (additional 10% discount when paying with HSBC credit card) and the sale is open to the public on 29 and 30 November 2008.

Venue: Orchid Ballroom, Level 2 Parkroyal Hotel, Kuala Lumpur

Time: 10am-7pm

This time, I’m not queueing in the morning. I’ll just try my luck later in the day and maybe take the Monorail instead of driving because I can just imagine the traffic and the jams!

Good luck everyone who’s going!
