Tuesday, January 24

I went to tesco Shah Alam with mama and lieawulf yesterday. I really had a great time looking at how the malaysians do their shopping. How silly, selfish, stingy, and etc. Tesco has a promotion on certain items, seems Chinese new year is around the corner. Let me share a few acts that caught by me :

Scene 1 : Orange oh orange


As u guys know when chinese new year aapproaches there will be plenty of oranges (limau mandarine) will be sell everywhere. It is wrapped in the box nicely. There is this one aunty who would like to buy the the full box of oranges. She open the box and try one to makesure it is sweet. It seems that the orange is not as that tasty, so she open another one to get a better taste, still not as she wanted. She open the 3rd box and taste the orange, I can see the smile on her face, I guess she's happy with it. So she took the whole box and grab a few from the other two box and fit into the 3rd box.
*sukahati die je..


Scene 2: Grape oh grape


I went to the fresh fruits section to grab a few fruits for myself. Grapes have different kind of types and prices, u pay more for a better grapes and it taste good as well. It doesnt mean if its cheap its not good. It depends. One chinese lady turn up beside me and she is buzy choosing the grapes while pushing me a side. She stroke me twice, I glanced at her and watch what is she doing. "Am I too big to be here until she din't see me" I asked myself. The best part I saw her putting together the different kind of grapes into one bag, in a way to get a cheaper price for a better grape. She put the lower grade of grape on top. She walked away as if nothing wrong.
* that is consider cheating


Scene 3: Prawn fighting



The next mission is to get some fish and prawn. All three of us walked to the fish section. Tesco has a promotion for medium size prawn that cost only Rm7.50 per kg. Normally it will cost up to RM17.00 per kg. No wonder I can see crowd from far. As soon as I get to the prawn area, there are few left, lieawulf manage to grab some. On the other hand, I can see a few people with 3 to 4 full plastic of prawn in their trolley. I laughed and show it to my Mama . My mama told me maybe they have a restaurant or a stall, it is for selling purposes. A few minutes later, the staff put a few more box of prawns into the container that filled with crush ice, and once again I saw similar faces that already took 3 full bag of prawn come and grab a lot more. I manage to grab some for me as well. It is not the end yet, I need to weight the prawns. There are few makcik's who peel off the head of the prawn to make it lighter.
* tipu lagi...

I enjoyed myself though... Peace to all. :)
