SALE SALE SALE!!!

On Saturday, Db and me were walking down the brigade road. I was craving to do some good shopping, since I have been missing this action since a real long time. He finally gave up, and we started looking around all shops for something that might catch my attention.

Suddenly we saw some people making kinda announcements for some BLOCKBUSTER SALE...where in they were selling garments on weight...50 grams for 40 rupees I believe. Db wanted me to check out there...he believed, we might get good offers there. But I wasn't convinced...I maintained that it must be something like a cotton sale that we find every nook and corner of the city. But Db delivered his haloed logic...

'For sure the cost of storing these garments would be much higher than the loss if they sold it such dirt cheap. Say these guys produced these garments to export it to Walmart...which Walmart in turn is not buying due to the recession...then the producer has to arrange for storing these garments. Due to constant accumulation, storage starts becoming costlier or him. So he decides to sell the stuff at cheaper price to minimize his losses'

Hmm...It made sense though, as always.

So we went in with zero expectations. I couldn't believe myself on the kind of stuff they had. Each top which would have easily cost me 400-500 rupees at Westside or Shopper's Stop, came for some handy 40-50 rupees. I dumped most of them, since I believed I wouldn't fit into them. I just got one of them to used as a daily wear, mostly I picked up a skirt and a few short trousers for daily use.
When I started trying them one by one at home later in the night, I could clearly see that I had underestimated myself. The only Tee I had picked up, fitted me so well and looked nothing worse than the ones picked up from any of the renowned stores. I was all so excited, but disappointed too, I could have picked up more.
Db gives me that oh-you-are-incorrigible look and gets busy with his laptop.

The next day is Sunday, but Db is working today...he's got some urgent project delivery I believe. I didn't bother him in the morning, but all day all I have been thinking about is the BLOCKBUSTER SALE. I wanted to pick all Tees that I dumped the other day since now I know they would fit. Db comes back early in the evening, the sale is written all over my face and not to be forgotten, he can read some minds too...so we head to the sale again.

But to my utter frustration, the crowd is four times what it was the other day and I don't find any of my favorite garments any more. Arghhhh!!!

But I have my knight in shining armour by my side, he plunges into the crowd, and like a skillful diver comes out with all the collections I had missed out on.

And that makes me a proud owner of some 3 shorts, 1 skirt and 7 tees, which cost me all for just a thousand bucks, which could have easily cost me more than a 3-4 thousand at any branded showroom. Yipeeeee!!!
As much as I pat my back for being an intelligent shopper, Db deserves more than a mention for the hunt.

Thanks Love.
