Sales galore

I love coming home to Malaysia for several reasons, chief of which is food, family and the ever-present sales. However, now that I've been home for some time and have been lounging around not doing anything much except going for the occasional interview, the allure of food and the embraces of family has gotten a little, if not stale, then definitely not as attractive as they once were. Not that I'm complaining, mind you. I love both equally as much :) Even my sales fervour has died down, since all the stock seems to be the same. 

However, I'm particularly happy this week because there are two huge warehouse sales in town! 

MPH Distributors Warehouse Sale
When : 22-27 October, 9am-7pm
Where : Ground Floor Warehouse, Bangunan TH, No. 5, Jln. Bersatu, Section 13/4, PJ
If you're travelling along jalan semangat off the Rothman's roundabout, turn left after Colgate Palmolive and if you're travelling along Jalan Kemajuan, turn in to the street in between F&N and Nissan 

You HAVE to check this out if you're a booklover. They have stacks and stacks of books at high markdowns. They have little "happy hour promotions" throughout the day and if you're one of the first ten people to bring along the article in Wednesday's Sun newspaper, you'll get a free book. No idea what it is, since I don't leave the house that early. Also, if you bring along the article in Tuesday's Star newspaper (Section 2), you'll get to puchase certain books at even greater prices. Can't remember which ones, exactly, but you'll definitely be able to get Terry Pratchett's Making Money for RM15. And it's the hardcover edition too!



Zara, Massimo Dutti, Pull and Bear Warehouse Sale
When: 24-27 October, 10am-7pm
Where: Dataran Hamodal, No. 4, Jln 13/4
Basically in the same location as the MPH warehouse sale, but a few meters up/down the road depending on which direction you're coming from.

If you're a clothes lover, need I say more? Zara! Massimo! Pull and Bear! Ok I really don't know much about the last two brands, but ZARA! No idea if it's worth going to, really, since I've been to more than a few warehouse sales where the clothes are one step away from the donation bin. But I guess we'll find out tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
