Crocs for sales!

Where : Spore Expo - Hall 4
When : 14-16 Nov 2008
Event : Crocs Sales

As usual, its nearing the end of the year. That means there will be so many year-end sales. I'm not a person who likes shopping at all unless shopping for gifts or my basic necessities. But this sales is something that i will wanna go and i went. I don't regret going cos i had lotsa fun looking for my items, queuing and paying for the merchandise despite the crowds.

Its the crocs sales! Held over the weekends starting from yesterday, Friday the 14th till tomorrow Sunday the 16th, i went today. Sales started from 10am till 8pm. Heard from colleagues and friends that went yesterday; its already jam packed when they reached the event hall at 11am despite being a weekday.

I was reluctant to go cos i really hate crowds but heard that the sales was up to 80% discount, i was so tempted. Finally, last minute at 5.30pm my sis said "Let's go kak. I will queue up and you go look for your items". Cos she knows that i liked crocs merchandise so much.

When i reached Expo it was already 6.30pm. OMG! It was such a long queue inside the event hall with people queuing to make payment. Since i'm already there, i went in and started to look for the four items that i have in mind - "Off-road", jibbitz, "Malindi" and "Islander". There wasn't any "Malindi" and "Islander" for sales. Found my "Off-road" shoes with the colour that i liked. There, i fell in love with "Scutes" but it ran out of stock for my size and the colour that i liked. Tried to look around but couldn't find my jibbitz.

Scutes - Fell in love with this design when i was there

There's so many other items on sales...apparels, caps, socks, T-shirts, bags, shoes, sandals and jibbitz. All you have to do is find a spot near the display set and start looking for your model of shoes/sandals that you fancy, choose the colour and ask the salesperson for your size. As i came late, i see that the sizes thats available are 4,5,10,11,12 for most of the shoes/sandals.

I was disappointed cos i only have one pair of shoes and having to queue such a long queue, i sms my sis who was in the queue to abandon the mission and go home. But she said "Its ok. You stand in the queue and i go look for any items that I might like". She found two long sleeved shirts which cost 2 pieces for $16. What a great deal!

The best part i must say is queuing to make payment. Along the queue lines, i saw so many merchandised being abandoned. So many patrons in the queue lines keep trying out all the abandoned shoes and get hold of those that they fancy and of their size. Guez what? i found a shoe that interests me - "Hydro"! It was my luck that the abandoned pair is my size and its black in colour. I quickly grab it and placed it in my shopping bag. Gee...its my day!

Along the queue lines i keep a look out for any other sandals that could interest me, and was also looking for the jibbitz. I couldn't find any jibbitz when i did my rounding earlier. Then...THE JIBBITZ! There on the floor were three packets of jibbitz, with 5 jibbitz in each packets. 2 of the packets i liked the design and grab it! Usual price $3-$7 per jibbitz, now $1 per jibbitz! But the design are pre-pack so you just chose any packs with the most design that you liked best.

Hate late-comers. I dunt hv high patience level u know.

One thing that i always hold onto; wenever sometg bad happen to me, i'll nvr ask God "Why me?" Cos in times of goodness and happiness i nvr ask God "Why me?" Cos everything that happened, happens for a reason.
