Went shopping at Low Yat for new SD memory card today and was I in for a shock?  Sorry ah… have to sound like a jakun a bit here…

1. Minimum size for SD card is now 2GB and it’s only RM18!  Cost me RM130 for 1GB not so long ago *$#%@!!!!
2. They have 32GB thumb drive now????  And it’s only RM170????  My first thumb drive bought in 2005 cost RM125 for 256MB!!!!  More *%$#@#$%%*&
3. And what is this Class 2, Class 4, Class 6 SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity)??? *scratch head*

Storage media has come a long, long way.  My first PC bought in 1991 came with 30MB hard drive!  Can you imagine that???

While we are on the subject of old technology here, the old PC also came with an Intel processor with 8MHz clock speed.  And there’s a “Turbo” button which will push it to 12MHz …. 50% improvement !!!  And if you still don’t get it, today’s PC runs at clock speed in excess of 3GHz … that’s 3,000MHz as compared to the 8MHz! Like comparing to someone on a bicycle and a supersonic jet.

when i saw this picture at stickgal, i really felt it, cos the reason why i’m doing this post is because i’m all dressed up to go shopping then it rained! darn… quickly finish raining laa…

eeeyyyeeerrr so geram.. there goes my weekend!

just in case you didn’t know, Coach is having a sale now… so quickly go grab your bags!

here’s my loot… thank you baby!!

oh by the way… i took leave and went to Lewre Warehouse sale last wed… and these are what i managed to pick up from the sale wahahahah….

Today is the first day of the Giordano warehouse sale in Segambut, Kuala Lumpur. As today is a working day, most of the shoppers are housewives, aunties and …hmm.. quite a number of factory workers and despatch boys. Taking the usual longer lunch hours to shop I guess.

This time, the selection is mainly casual tops for ladies. Hardly any men’s clothes on the rack.

1. Look for this sign to locate the warehouse sale
2. Giordano Warehouse Sale is located on the first floor of Complex Central
3. Some eager buyers “digging” and “burrowing” into the pile of clothes
4. Nearly 2pm and the crowd is starting to disperse
5. A whole selection on RM5. Some nice stuff here but majority are extra old stocks
6. Grab on to your bunch … many items get discarded on the way to the cashier
7. The damage today. 1 khaki pants, 1 drytech sweater and 15 tops = RM143

To sum it up:

What?

Giordano Warehouse / Stock Clearance Sale

Where?

First Floor, Block C, Complex Sentral, Jalan Segambut Atas, KL

When?

10.30am - 7.00pm 21st - 25th May 2008 (Best time after 2.30pm)

Why?

Old Giordano stock going cheap. Tops RM5 - RM15, Pants RM15 - RM19

How?

How to get there? From KL, take Jalan Kuching and head towards the Jalan Duta Roundabout. Follow the signboard towards Jalan Segambut. You will soon come to a traffic light just after GBH Warehouse and before Tan Chong Motor (Nissan). Turn right at this junction and drive straight until you see Maybank on your left. Turn left and Complex Sentral is just ahead. You can park on the rooftop of Complex Sentral for RM2 per entry. Take the elevator towards first floor and follow the Giordano signs.
