discount card problem

while waiting for joelle at the bhg entrance at bugis, i saw this bush of 天堂鸟that had the leaves all blown to one direction... and stay that direction even when the wind is not blowing...

today we are supposed to go ikea to shop for a wardrobe for little megan, as joelle's due date is near, and the most important reason is my guest room (megan's room) is in a terrible state...

and so, this afternoon browse the web and saw quite a few wardrobes to consider. and when i met joelle, the first thing she asked was "got bring your friends of ikea card?"... damn it, its that discount card problem again... i always have problem with discount cards. do you ever come across something, which at that moment, it was like love at first sight and there is practically nothing to stop you from buying it, even thou you haven't look at the price tag? if yes? you're halfway there to understand my agony... now you grab that thingy, go over to the cashier, 5 steps left to cashier, you took out your wallet... 2 more steps left, and suddenly, a figure stood between you and the counter, and she asked you "got bring your discount card?".... ahhhhhhh!!!

to think i kanna this a few times le... that pair of sandals from OP, that leather bag from Esprit... i'm very very close to buy them, and all i get was "WAIT, my sis got OP/Esprit card"... and when that 'feeling to buy' dies down... when that item became sales item... when that item became obsolete... when the salesperson even forgotten they ever sold that item... that discount card still haven't come lor... so whenever i go OP or Esprit with joelle, and she said i should try this shirt or that shoe, i'll say "还是等你姐的discount card bah", just to spike joelle... keke, i'm so bad... :P

hey, thats not the end of the story, i intended to bluff my way out by saying "that ikea card? throw it away lor". and joelle didn't buy it lor... wow, she getting smarter wor, must be the fish pills i forced her to take (the DHA pills are for megan's brain development, and it helps joelle also wor...). then comes my second bluff, i said "but i misplaced it already lah". joelle countered it, saying its in my drawer...

win liao lor, i LL go back home lor... after shower, i looked high and low in my drawers and couldn't find that bloody ikea card lor... and in the end, it was inside joelle's old wallet in joelle's drawer lor... what the... checked the web, i can redempt a $5 voucher... all these shit for a $5... i better go for my run bah...
