the $3.90 value meal

we went to Garden City after churh today cause PS started work at 12. so we thought we'd go have some lunch, and richard was talking about his secret value meal from KFC which would only cost $4... no, wait, only $3.90!!!

wow

anyway, we went there.. guess what? KFC snacker burger $1.90 and Wicked Wings @2.00.. yup, value meal alright. and cause there were four of us [me, sam, PS, rick] we ordered four snacker burgers and four wicked wings [one Wicked Wing has three pieces].. and the guy behind the counter was like "You want 12 chicken wings?" and rick said "YEAH."

so we ate and PS had to go to work before she'd finished her share of the wings.. she left us with espress instructions to leave them and bring them back for her. "you don't eat my chicken, ah." *looks at richard*

after i'd finished my meal [they had to wait for me cause i was the slowest] we stood up to go home. none of us could really stomach the idea of shopping for four hours until PS finished her shift. but then rick said he needed to buy vitamins - vitamins at the cheapest price. so our goal was to visit every pharmacy in Garden City to check out the prices. and if we had to go back to the first one - well, tough luck!

guess what? we did end up having to go back to the first pharmacy we visited. just so you know, Centrum multivitamin tablets are best value Pharmacy Plus.. save you the trouble of having to go through what we did.

we went into a few clothing stores.. most of which had large multi-coloured signs proclaiming things like "$10 only" or "2 for $25". cause we're cheap. in the end, Rick bought a shirt from erm.. either JeansWest or Westco.. one of the two.. always getting them confused. quite a nice shirt..

he and sam did the most random thing while we were walking in the shopping centre. i was walking a little ahead of them so i could hear them talking but i had no idea what about. suddenly, i sensed something was up and i turned around. the two of them came up beside me - sam on the right, rick on the left - and sandwiched me. "just trying to make you feel small," they said. well, i showed them!! i elbowed them a little and tried to take up as muh space as i could. not a good idea in a crowded place.

and then.. just as we were about to take the escalators to the underground carpark, rick caught sight of bright fluorescent coloured-paper stuck outside Kmart. it was too colourful for him to resist a look.. we went in looking for zinc pots and came out with a bottle opener.
