A Mind of My Own

DD and I went to Takashimaya to pick up the mooncakes that we ordered. 9 in all. We were supposed to be given one free mini durian mooncakes for every 3 boxes bought even with staff discounts. The lady issuing us said “But you got discount lei.” Seeing our disappointed faces, she gave us one box free. Not satisfied, I couldn’t seem to find the price list. DD decided to ask the lady boss who said, “Yes, have.” Exclamation marks were popping up on our faces.

Moral of the story, ask the boss, whoever that is to verify. We ended up trying to decide where to get a taxi without waiting in the long queue, anyone who had tried to wait for a taxi at Ngee Ann City knows its notorious for long wait, more than 20 minutes. Try waiting in line while carrying 9 metal boxes of mooncakes.

Lucky Plaza has uninterrupted line of taxis waiting for you. Go there if you need one fast. So, we carried all 12 boxes of mooncakes this year. I left out the photography sessio. ARGH!
