I follow my heart vs my head most of the time. In other words, ang dali kong ma-BI! Jacqui easily convinced me to get also the same bag as hers, but in different color. Actually, she hasn’t seen the bag, I just described it to her! And after all the talks on the phone and text messages, I went and bought this…(cause baka maunahan pa nya ako!hehehe)

So who is in purse ban? I bet you all not gonna believe me next time! lol!

By the way, we are both looking for red and black ones of this epi noe.  So comfy and easy to just dump all your stuff inside!  

I just heart this bag!

I just came from the Richwell Sale.  I so love all stuff I bought.  There were a lot of people so expect to line-up for 3 hours just to pay.  Better bring a companion to help you in lining up while you shop around and a driver to just drop you off because parking spaces inside the warehouse are very limited. You would have to risk not to be towed when you parked along the road outside the gate.

Good thing there was Apple who was there early as well. Thanks for lining up girl! She already started lining up at 2pm and I was still able to move around while we put all our finds in one corner. She was quick in buying her toys. Apparently, I noticed a lot of barbie items which I went ga-ga over! The sales assistants are saying they are bringing out more items in the succeeding days. Gee, I want to go back tomorrow!!!

I almost bought all barbie dollhouse I could see, (hehehe). And you literally have to get the first find and then don’t let it slip your hand anymore. Otherwise, you can’t find it again. Apple and Toni helped me decide which among the dollhouses and other accessories should I get. I would have bought both if I didn’t see the barbie vanity table and chair. I was so happy when I learned that it was priced 50% off. Then I saw the chicco vanity table and chair also. I asked for the price, it was just Php300 more expensive that the barbie set. I can’t decide. I want the chicco cause I know its durability but I want the barbie because of its color pink! Ok, no more thinking, I got both so my two girls would have their own each. (ang gastos ng anak na babae, grabe!)

I still want to get the step 2 slide which was Php2,800 only. The pony carousel which was at Php2,400 and the dora bike which was at Php1,200 only. But I decided to get the barbie dollhouse and accessories first. I plan to go back again to the warehouse and convince the husband to buy the outdoor play activities so we can have something to put for the garden at the back of the dreamhouse. I was looking for a big playhouse but they don’t have it yet as the sales girl said. There would be more “boys” items by tomorrow according to her.

For the meantime, these are all items I got:

Barbie Vanity Table Set - Php1500

Chicco Vanity Table Set - Php 1800

Barbie Playhouse (new-20% off) - Php 2000

Barbie Laptop - Php 1000

Barbie Living Room Set - Php 500

Barbie Pool Set - Php 300

Now, Santa Claus is ready for christmas gift-giving! lol!

Jody’s Christmas Gift Suggestion

So who would say that you can only give flowers during valentine’s day? Well, not anymore this time. I myself, would like to receive beautiful floral centerpieces during the holidays. This is the time when you really have to decorate your home since a number of guests can come by. During christmas, we really intend to design our place appropriately for the occasion because my god daughters and sons are really passing by to collect their gifts. It’s also the time when I get to meet my friends again whom only see during this time of the year. Last year, I got compliments with the dining table arrangement I made. I had to make it really festive using colors red and green. I partnered it with a floral arrangement in the middle of the dining table with something like this:

It was actually a wreath. This year, I want to use the colors orange and yellow for the dining centerpieces. I actually haven’t bought anything yet so far. I plan to buy all christmas decors by next weekend since I have started to buy christmas gifts as well. Apprently, the christmas tree is not yet up. I hope to do it soon as well.

I saw nice christmas floral centerpieces in the Rockwell Mall last weekend. There are actually a lot nowadays. When giving our any christmas decors, you may send it to the recepient in advance so it would really be a great gift idea!

I missed the Toy Kingdom Sale.  Gosh, I’m a bummer.  I even posted it here.  Too bad wasn’t able to make it since I had a wedding last Friday and two parties to attend to last weekend.  I heard there were lots of nice toys at great prices but I also heard a number of people who just went home empty handed because of the tremendous cashier line-up.  Anyway, I’d rather prepare myself instead for this friday.  Note:  I have blocked off my whole afternoon so I can go there early.  We are just 5 minutes away from this warehouse and I’ll truly be a big bummer if I don’t get there first and be among the first to see the great selections.  I hope it would be as good as 2years ago.  Last year was ok, but 2006 was better.  

I bet I’ll see some of you there!  (wink, wink)

We are really getting excited about the construction of the dream house and now even excited to check out items to furnish it. Even the in-laws based abroad are happy for us. In fact, they do understand our reason for not being able to visit them this holiday season. They were very supportive of our decision. They were offering to get us some nice pieces of decorations for the house. I’m also starting to buy some items online like new casseroles, new coffeemaker, new kitchen knives, new juicer and a very nice fruits and vegatables chopper. And with the black friday sale coming up, I’m sure I’ll go crazy again with all the items I have been watching to go on sale. Now my concern is to just get an international shipping quote to box all this items and be sent to me. My inlaws have been relying to International Movers whenever they need to send something for us because of their very competitive rates and reliable service. So I guess, will just use their service as well.
