And So the Auntie Goes Shopping
I was asked what I wanted for Christmas. It was a really hard choice to make between the two. Both are black. Both are useful. Both cost just about as much.
In the end, as I recalled Cabbycabcab gushing about how great the OSIM iEcology was, about a year back, I succumbed to the auntie in me.
AND the deal was made so much sweeter with the fact that I could trade in my old pinky vacuum cleaner! I would have loved to keep this petite one (as it takes up less storage space), but it had already died on me twice.
So now, we have Eckie in the house - it's an early Christmas pressie for both The Boy and me - meaning, if he has a share in this pressie, HE HAS A SHARE IN THE VACUUMING .....

Haha... I happen to own the other useful black gadget! Great minds, great taste hor? In case you still intend to get the other "blackie", it's cheaper at the airport without the GST :-)
no no, not auntie at all! eh ok, at least i would have chosen the same blackie too! :p let me know how it is yah? it looks big and powerful, haha!
pillo > Serious?! Haha, so it's good eh?!
At the airport, without GST? But that's only if you are flying what. by the way, when are we having lunch?
yuling > hoho, so i'm not alone! if we are not auntie, we must simply be practical people right? Although I'm still thinking about the OTHER blackie....
haha, yeah, will let you know how it works, when we clean the house this friday. ;)
the other black baby looks tempting! Maybe your hubs will surprise you with it on Xmas day!
That's a present for the home. Not counted, right? ;P
let me know if you wanna the other one. if it can be found at scotts' dfs, i might have a 15% for it. ;)
the vacumn cleaner looks fierce sia!!

Eh, no leh... I last checked my mail box on Wednesday. Lemme go check again.
ok, i can't believe you picked the vacuum cleaner ahead of the bag, though it looks really NICE. haha. maybe the bag can be your bonus/increment/treat for ending a busy period/celebration of your 1 yr + 1 mth anniversary present? :D (Yes, I actually do whip out those categories of gifts SOMETIMES when it's NECESSARY)
Haha, ok the way you put it babe, there's ALWAYS a way to rationalise every of our purchase decision, isn't it? ;)
by the way, the vacuum cleaner's REALLY cool. really. ;)
haha! the battle between practical and trendy. but it seems like your iecology is BOTH trendy AND practical. hahah!
