Random Encounters: Toy Hunt in Greenhills

I hardly got out alive.  I'm not exaggerating.  I'm so tired when I came home.  After toy hopping from several toy shops my last destination is Greenhills.  Sinuyod ko ang buong Greenhills, Viramall, Shopesville.  Isa lang ang tindahang nakita ko na nagbebenta ng hinahanap ko.  But the item is priced at php2,000.  What!!!  That item is suppose to be php1,500 only.  I guess I just found the lair of the hoarders I hate.  So I gave up.  And instead of buying Grimlock Animated, I bought other items equivalent to my budget.  I bought a Prowl Classic 2.0 deluxe and a Snarl Animated Deluxe.  Earlier I also purchased Soundwave in TK Podium.  Not bad at all.  But I'm still craving for Grimlock.  Better luck next time na lang.

    tapos pagpasok ko pa dun sa isang place dun yung parang dome. Bilog yung lugar. Ang naglalapitan sa akin nagbebenta ng DIBIDI na pirata. Para akong naglalaro ng dodgeball.

    Parang wala naman akong nakitang Zagu. Pero grabe, tapos yun nga, muntik na akong magfreak out nung sabihin ng tindera na 2000 ang grimlock. buset talaga. Kung alam ko lang sana di ko na binili muna yung Soundwave. E di sana may budget pa ako sa Grimlock.

    Its obvious right? Some people just don't know strategy. Well for the reason I don't ride the tide or the the trend. Look at TF Classics Grimlock... He's all over the place when he was fetching for PhP 1,700.00 pesos, when he was sold out on retail before. Now he's not only accessible all over the place he's on sale for PhP 500.00 pesos. All these hoarders there just like those people we know who gets first dibs on the news. Good thing we are not all about just the toys or living in that realm. ^_^

    Greenhills is your best bet. Just be vigilant, maraming overpriced.

    Basta mahuli ka lang nang isang oras sa bukas ng toys shop sa araw ng release ng toy, dumiretso ka na sa GreenHills.
