Bloom
There was mini
Carrefour sale at Downtown over the weekend. The area was quite small and they sold quite a few stuff like toys, dvds, bags..etc.
They had a corner that sold books too!! [at an affordable price]
But the problem is that there were mini mountains and finding the book you want is quite annoying and troublesome.
Lucky for me
i was able to help
MC find the 1st and last book of the shopaholic series. [Made popular again by the movie release]
The books went for $6 each so i guess that was a good buy.

For today, met Kenneth and
MC in the morning for
UniQlo shopping. Managed to reach Tampines 1 when it opened and headed to
UniQlo when it was opening its doors.
Initially there weren't that many people inside but after 30mins it was starting to swarm like ants on a picnic mat.
We stuck there from 10am to 12++, escaping the horde, and went to eat a
Carl's Jr.
Went to walk the rest of the mall after lunch and
UniQlo had the queue thing again to regulate the flow of customers going in. Phew us.
I got 1 UT 1 Polo
MC got 3 tops [all UT]
Kenneth got 1 pants 1 UT 3 pairs of socks 3 simple tops
I spent $49.80
MC spent $64.70
Kenneth spent near $110 [can't recall]

Overall my verdict is...
UniQlo is new in Singapore. It does have some new and vibrant clothing design. The cheap pricing as a sales tactic worked wonders.
But the shopping experience falled short as there were too many people and waiting became its bane.
So just wait maybe 1-2 weeks down the road to visit the Mall. It would be alot more pleasing with less people bumping into you. But if you haven't go and can't wait, then you should more or less know what to expect.

Note:
1. I'm sure people took leave today as i somewhat predicted. Screw you all!!
2. I hereby give Tampines 1 the new Nick-Mall-Name of TOne. Not T1 but Tone!! XD
