Bargain Hunters

Bargain hunters, that's what we were yesterday.We finally bought our furnitures from a Flea Market yesterday.Yes, we got all our furnitures from there after all those mall trips.The furnitures are not high end, but I don't mind.Anyway , we are not furnishing our own home.If we decide to leave, we will be leaving the furnitures behind anyhow.

We're moving to a cheaper flat in a couple of days.But we would have to give up these luxuries; a lift, swimming pool and a gym.The flat is on the first floor, so we really don't need to have a lift.Baby G loves to have a dip in the pool often, but with the scorching heat, it is not a good idea, even at nightime.We might just as well go to an indoor pool.And the gym, as much as I want to go there everyday, I can't, not with the little boy.And hubby wouldn't allow me to go on my own, fearing that I would get dizzy and pass out.

The flat is semi furnished.It is budget friendly compared with all the others that we've seen with all the house hunting we've done.And it is conveniently located near all the 3 major malls here and near hubby's workplace.He could go home for lunch now.
We got these extra furnitures from our original mall budget: TV stand, book shelf, dresser and a cupboard.Not bad at all.And the sofa is custome made, I chose the fabric myself, with the approval of hubby of course.

My son was bathing in his own sweat when we went to the Flea Market but it was worth it with the bargains that we got.My haggling skills were put to a good use.LOL.

After our flea market trip, we went to the mall and dined. Afterwards, Baby G had his first full lenght picture from the big screen.It 's none other than, Shrek.He enjoyed it well, the first half, that is.He got bored with the other half and decided to have a snooze. I was worried that he would make noise like he might cry, luckily he did not.But he made some other type of noise.He was naming everything that he saw from the screen, out loud.
