Shopping, shopping, shopping !!!

Beginning of August '06 - 19th August '06
We hav been travelling and looking ard for furniture these 2-3 weeks,
From Cellini @ Loyang to OM @ Liang Court to other Showrooms @ Sungei Kadut, Defu lane, ...the list goes on ...

We kinda like the Bianca Sofa Set @ Cellini, but can't really decide on the colour...

my thots - Was wondering ... if we can convert these distances to air-millege, we may hav clocked enuff for a trip to Thailand???


......
19th August 2006 - tink my wife is already snoring in our cozy bed as I'm writing this :)

Lotsa stuff we committed today... i visualise a scene of $$$ depleting in my savings acct ... gulp ...

First Stop... Citygas
We went to Citygas to recce their dryer in the late morning...

Here's the gd news ...

1. Claimed drying time is shorter than electric dryer ... thus lesser running cost???
2. Looks nice & simple to operate to do the job rite
3. They have a rack to mount the dryer ...
suitable for the miserable space @ our CORIS svc balcony... (best news I heard)

The not so gd news...
1. Promo ended in July ... now price went up to $8xx.(w/gst) .... arrgggghhhhhh!!!!! :'(

We decided to put the purchase on hold and continue looking @ other brands...


2nd Stop... Sofa Set

Finally we made up our minds to purchase the Bianca Sofa from Cellini today. So brought our ID to help us select the colour.






(sigh~ long trip to Loyang again, my wife slept most of the way again :P).




Next Stop... Curtains/Blinds

We also got our ID to bring us to select curtains & blinds, after looking @ countless catalogues and sample, my wife finally got what she want... but did exceed my budget (she call the shots :S) ....

my thots - looks like gotta eat more bread for meals from now on leow :P

Last Stop for the day ... Lightings
By this time, my wife was complaining abt the trip, how tired she was (she slept most of the way) & hunger... Luckily, we are able to make this a fast one with the help of our ID ... total procurement (a total of 23 downlights & a couple of normal ceiling lights for toilet, storeroom, ...etc.)

They gimme with a F.O.C. door-bell - nothing fanciful here... normal ding dong dong dong onli - i did play wif it... quite funz... my wife was giving mi the kinda look.

Nxt on our agenda, sourcing for electrical appliances & starting our reno...

Dryer of course it's expensive and it will cost a bomb to your electricity. Advise will be use your dryer during rainy days otherwise use bamboo poles unless of course you don't mind paying $200/month for SP.
