Ok let's have a quick update... (before I sleep and my lao po continue nagging me at not blogging)

- Happy Birthday APGC! Today we celebrated the 2nd Anniversary at the F1 Pit, next to the Singapore Flyer. The good thing about it... I have the afternoon off!

- 2nd Visit to Flyer! Went with Mrs Chua to the Flyer again today. This time we only shared the capsule with 2 tourists, and we spent our time on the flyer happily snapping photos away! (u can access Mrs Chua's blog or her facebook to view the photos, I'm sure she will upload) We brought a camera stand alone, so we manage to take quite a number of couple photos.

- Bought a air cooler! What's with the weather this days? It has been very hot. Thankfully I'm in the air con room almost the whole day so wasn't so affected by the weather. Anyway I bath cold water. But Mrs Chua is different, every night she has been "reminding" me to install an air con in our new home. Her room, unfortunately, had too many built in stuctures that prevents an air con from being install without removing quite a bit of things. So we bought an air cooler instead. The air cooler works by evaporating water, so just need to add ice and water before sleep in order to have a good night's sleep.

- Carrefour! A bit out of pt but I feel cheated by the staff in Carrefour. We were waiting for our movie to start so shopped around Carrefour. We walked past the air cooler section and felt that the price were still reasonable. 4 or 5 (bad memory) were placed side by side ranging from $88 to $149. A saleslady introduced us to the $149 product immediately and assured us that it is the best and most popular of the selection. She also showed us how to maintain the air cooler by washing and rinsing the filter. We were impressed and Mrs Chua wanted to buy, but I insisted on my usual tactic of "cooling period" for making high value purchases. So after the movie, Mrs Chua still felt that she wanted it, so we went back to Carrefour again. This time a male salesperson served us. He introduced us to another product, $117, and again assured us that it is the best and most popular of the selection. I queried him about the difference between this item and the $149 item, and he immediately took out the filters and showed us how the paper filter of the $149 item needs to be replaced periodically as it is paper (he even demonstrated by chipping of a portion with fingers), while the $117 item's filter can be washed as it is cloth. He even mentioned that he asked the management to keep it at $117 over the weekend as they just brought in a large number of stocks, and it will be back to it's original price of $148 on Mon. Although we did buy the $117 product in the end, I was still kept puzzled by how the 2 salesperson's statements didn't match. So as Mr and Mrs Chua was visiting the Flyer on Mon (which is today) we sneakily went back to Carrefour to check the price of the item. It was still at $117! Haiz... If I'm free enough I might wanna drop an email to Carrefour... I dislike dishonest sales tactics...
