Picture-less Update

Hey guys... sorry bout being away for so long...

Yes, as the title suggests, this post is merely going to be a rather short picture-less update...

However, it may not be as dull as it sounds ( or so i hope) >.<

Anyway, i paid a visit to a nearby Guardian Pharmacy recently and noticed a rather strange promotion sign...

Amidst the bustling people, i caught sight of a sign promoting Guardian's home-brand bottled Handwash. Although i cannot recall the exact price, i'm sure it was somewhere between 3 - 4 bucks.

Anyhow, what really caught my eye was the HUGE BLACK print which screamed
"GUARDIAN HANDWASH!! PROMOTION!! NOW... BUY 4 FREE 2!!"

Well, that had me thinking that it was a rather good deal and i promptly approached the promotion shelf for a better look... which was about when i noticed... in fine print ( or rather tiny print), partially obscured by the Guardian's bright theme colours of orange and blue, a small sentence that read...

"...limited to 3 bottles per customer..."

Apart from making me raise an eyebrow about who would actually get the '2 free bottles' as stated in the promotion, it got me wondering if anyone had even seen the fine print in the first place... and perhaps what the cashier's reaction would have been had i taken 4 bottles of the aforementioned handwash to the check out counter....

Sadly, however, while i was busy wondering whether she would tell me that i was limited to only three bottles per transaction or whether she would give me an additional two bottles, it was time for me to leave. Ah well...

However, if anyone of you guys do actually get a chance to see the outcome, do let me know k? ^^

sorry guys

Hey ppl
apologies for being gone for so long.
My laptop isn't functioning at the moment, so i've kinda stopped blogging for now.
I'm hoping it's temporary, but anyway there hasn't really been anything worth blogging about recently.
Anyway, i'll keep you guys posted if anything interesting comes up.
