As there were so many of us decided to draw up a bit of a plan so we could organise the drivers plus make sure everyone was ready to go at the set times. Today had decided to hit the shops once again picked up by Made in the car and Nemo with the van and decided the first stop would be the shoe warehouse called R2U Ready to Use. Its not a huge shop and would be easy to miss but is literally wall to ceiling shoes.
Its set price so all you have to do is find a pair you like and ask for the size and the staff will try and find what youre after. this is a much safer option than trying to pull a pr from the middle of the stack near the front of the shop as did one of the girls and then watched as shoe after hundred shoe comes sliding down. The shop looked like a disaster site after 11 shopaholics had destroyed their neat displays. The shop assistants there definately need work insurance with the heights they have to climb 6 ft up to look for that elusive shoe you just have to have. So no doubt another good shopping spot to add to the list,about 60+ prs between us and off we go to the next stop. Animale Factory Outlet.
This time i was much more restrained than in March didnt buy anything from here although most of ther others flexed their credit cards again. They now also sell bags, shoes and some jewellry.
Nemo had taken the others onto The Surf factory outlet where i think some bathers etc were purchased. They tend to have different things at different times so you really need to know the prices. In march when iwas there bought Mambo ts for men approx $10A rather than $40 and italian made Mossimo sunnies for $12A so you just have to have a look.
Made no doubt was having a ball as usual shopping with us females all day. My husband says no moneys worth the pain. Hes got the esky stocked with cold bottled water all the time now so never short of the drinks to keep the shopping levels going or beer in the esky which a couple of the girls had just because they could. anyway most had gone back to the hotel and Made was lucky enough to extend his shopping day to a stop at a supermarket with a couple of us to stock up on the cartons of dietcokes and juices for the cocktails etc which is much easier to buy all together especially easy when Made helps carry it to our room which we were more than grateful for..
Then all stocked up, well for a few days anyway, back to the hotel for a short rest. tried to book La Lucciolas going by our plan for dinner but booked out so off to Jimbaran Bay for the sunset after a quick swim.. Cont..
