14 Dec 2009Did you join the crazy frenzy?

We did on Saturday at noon. By then the queue to enter the compound was insane! Thankfully a staff spotted my baby bump and let us through — already queued for 30 minutes no less — else it would have been another 20 minutes waiting in line, just to come back out empty handed in 25 minutes! *boohoo* *my poor tired feet*
Yup, we left empty handed after an hour of sweats. Because my swollen feet now fits a size 6-7, and the designs that I wanted were all sold out. There were plenty of size 4-5, which I would have been in Crocs Heaven if it was during my non swollen feet days. So it was indeed a waste of time going, and the husband has now banned me from warehouse sales altogether.
Although I was unlucky, we saw a lot of very happy Crocs faithfuls that walked away with plastic bags and plastic bags filled with Crocs of all colours *humph*
The rule of the thumb when going for warehouse sales is: 1) To always be super “Kiasu” and 2) Go super early before the crowd pours in if you to maximise your Bargain
For a very pregnant me, both rules present a bit of a problem. So I guess I’ll just have to go to Crocs Concept Store instead where there’s no elbowing required. And we did just that on Sunday
