Boxing Day in Melbourne (2008)

It was the day after christmas. Also known as boxing day here. Which equates to MAJOR SHOPPING DAY.. XD
The Myer sales apparently began as early as 5am (dad saw the tv and stated it). Not that crazy to buy things... however we did go to Myer to see around... But all the clothes were still very expensive
We also made our way to David Jones, (walked past Hugo Boss), JR Duty Free. There we bought 2 bottles of liqour; 4 boxes of hand cream. The condition of buying duty free stuff is that we had to show photo ID (passports) and the airline ticket to prove that we're going to take it out of the country and stuff.
Went to Swanston St (the photo above is not Swanston... Errr... it's either Lonsdale or Bourke) [snicker]
So far we bought... for mum; it was 1 pants, 1 dress, 1 pair of shoes + myself; 1 top, 1 skirt, 3 jeans
We did more or less window shopping otherwise. hahaha~! had to control the buying, if not too much to bring back home. fufufufu~!
It was still nice to see the Christmas decor in some places.
There were a lot of people out in the city to do their shopping and hanging out. ^_^
Dad went to the Crown casino halfway from our shopping. no surprise that we (mum and i) was to go and meet him at the casino later for dinner. [lol] I didn't play. Sensed that my luck was pretty bad so not playing for a while.



After dinner, we did some more super packing. [lol] 10% left.

Cheers~!

my goodness. hahaha~! I think that I already know where to find you in the casino man... you'd be at the casino wars tables.

buying a lot of stuff would equate to less money and heavier luggages. [lol]
