Crocs

Accidentally heard from the bimbos that Expo has Crocs sales. Wanted to go yesterday, but was traumatised by the LONG queue into the sales area.. Really LONG. They actually have an exhibition hall opened next door just for queuing!!

However, being a cheapo, Ling decided that by hook or by crook, she will wake up early in the morning and queue for the crocs sales, an hour before they open for sales.

Ling did try her best. Managed to reach the exhibition hall an hour after it started, at about 11am. And there's alway LONG LONG LONG queue!! Already 3 lines into the exhibition hall next door!
But luckily the queue moved very fast. Within half an hour, Ling is IN the crocs sales. Because it's the last day, Ling has difficulty getting the shoes for her foot which has a common size 7. Thus Ling only managed to get 2 pairs of Mary Jane and 2 pairs of Prima. All 4 at a total of $70!

4 pairs of shoes is already considered a harvest to Ling. But there are other shoppers who ma-chiam buying shoes and clothes for the whole kampong - dragging bags of bags of bags along the queue to cashier!! Talking about cashier, Ling spent about 2-3 hours just to queue to pay for the 4 pairs of shoes.

While queueing, Ling listened to MP3 (till no batt), read a book and observed people/ kids. She also heard one lady complained "this is crazy. nxt time even if they sell at $1, i will not come. it is a waste of time!"

Ling looked at the lady bags of things, and think that she will still come even if they sell at $2.
