IT'S A SCAM!


I believe many of you have seen this picture on Facebook.
For those who didn't, you should BE GLAD

Firstly, what's a warehouse sale?

A major warehouse sale is when a designer/store sells its Overstock and/or leftovers from previous seasons. In the case of a major sale event, 
merchandise is priced to move, with 50%-80% off retail prices. Major sale events have a bigger selection of merchandise and sizes.
 Fashion Advice: Sample Sales vs. Warehouse Sales

After looking at this ad, Rachel, Karen and I decided to go to this One Metro Pudu and check out the warehouse sale. With a really excited and happy mood.

We decided to take the LRT there cause we don't know the exact location of the place.
*I couldn't even find it on my map app!*
So after parking our car at the nearest LRT station, 
We took the LRT to Pudu station.
And that when the bad day begins...

We assumed it wouldn't be that far from the LRT station cause the address stated Pudu so we decided to walk our way there.
Since we don't really know the place 
We used the old-school method.
Which is to ask the people around the place
Nobody could really tell us the right directions like the building does not exist...

After walking and struggling for an hour,
We gave up.
Asked a few cab and 4/4 have no idea where's One Metro Pudu
After asking directions from the concierge in Kenanga City Mall,
The lady searched the web and told us it was around F&N Point
With the help of a cab, we finally reached the place.
After that much of walking, we expected it all to be worth it in the warehouse sale.
But we were wrong.
LEVEL 999 WRONGThe entire building is empty.
I REALLY DO MEAN EMPTY
All the shop-lots are closed!

The warehouse sale was in the middle of the building.
And it not even a warehouse sale!
Yes. They have discount for the items
BUT. There's only max 15 types of different clothing.
 IT WAS SO SMALL 
You could glance through everything within 30 seconds
YES IT WAS THAT BAD.

And the worst part is,
THE MATERIAL OF THE CLOTHES IS BADDD.
So we didn't get to buy anything there.
And walked all the way back to the LRT station.

Even the day was bad enough,
We decided to not let the day end and continue our shopping at KLCC instead
With all the discounts like 50% or 70% in KLCC now, 
There's no need to go for other sales.
Or you might end up like us.

Turns out when your day is bad enough,
Something good will happen.
You know how the Chilli restaurant in KLCC is always full?
When we were there we didn't have to queue
And the food changed our entire mood.

That's the sizzling ribeye!
Classic Nacho's

The food was super awesome!
Especially their Nacho's. It's like eating a super crispy pizza.
Totally turn our frown upside down.
WE GOT CONNED!
TO.. I'M A HAPPY KID

So our day rotated 180 degrees and became a good one.
Karen couldn't join us for dinner so it's me and Rachel enjoying the best food in town
In a really good environment! :D

We didn't get to finish the food
But from the picture you can tell how happy we are! :D

Lesson learnt: 1. Don't believe in warehouse sale
2. When your day is so bad, bet on it and it might surprise you :)
