My sis saw this place selling the chopstick + spoon and she went in, then we begin to bargain and stuff and left the shop with 10 sets of chopstick + spoon wrapped in newspaper and stuff bur i cant rili remember the price now. Then 30mins later, we came across another shop selling 10 sets of chopstick + spoon at a CHEAPER price and WRAPPED NICELY in a box. so at first my sister say nvm lo, buy le jiu suan le. But she kept harping on it, like

Sis: Wah, just now we buy one more expensive hor. somemore is wrap in newspaper one leh. this one, inside the gift box, wrapped nicely and cheaper leh! i think mummy will like the wrapped one more leh. How ar?
