Lunch at Doncaster Westfield foodcourt. Moroccan burger from Grill’d.

A little common sense to share. When you are on your own at the foodcourt and there are not many seats available, never order your food to ‘have here/eat in’. Otherwise, you’ll be going around with your tray of food with the possibility of nowhere to sit. Always order as ‘take-away’. It’s a lot easier and if you really can’t find a seat, then at least you’re not stuck with the tray in your hand. There are many people out there without common sense.

Today’s purchases include -
Stainless steel pots

These pots were chosen because the inside is stainless steel and not non-stick material

While inspecting the pots in their boxes, I overheard a Malaysian or Singaporen woman (judging from her accent) in the next lane, telling her friend and two teenage children “Jamie Oliver also not bad…this one good.” Then they walk passed me and saw me selecting the pots. This is their conversation about the pots that i was selecting:

Woman – “Scanpan also not bad…see so cute.”
Her friend – “Which one you think nicer ah?”
Woman – ” This size is okay already. This one can cook soup. Enough already. How much?”
Her friend – “$149. The pans also quite nice.”
Woman – “Wait for sale…will be…$100.”
And they went on and on and on…that was only as far as I paid attention to.

She has sixth sense? She can tell how much exactly the discounted price will be prior to a Sale? If she had said “will be cheaper”, i wouldn’t be commenting on this sentence of hers. And followers don’t develop their own selective instinct or individual taste. They see someone else looking at a certain product and only then do they realise the beauty of that product.

Was looking for a bag for work but nothing caught the eye except this one, which isn’t that suitable for work. It also comes in black with white embroidery but this is obviously the better choice.
