Dont have one yet, still lurking. Once we get our new home, should also start a blog there. I loved what you've done to your home though and all DIY!!

preciousjam:

hehehe.....what a small world!!! yah!!! same nick on RT... what's your nick on RT?

thanks!!! i love it too...hope to see your blog soon...let me know k? will you be getting all the books and uniform on that day?i'm still waiting for the book list...do you think getting at the school will be cheaper than outside or its the same?

I'll def let you know once I start it. I really have no idea about the books and uniforms. My friends say to buy the text books and uniform from the school and the others from Popular. What do you think? I think I'll go on 24 (?) the saturday and then buy the uniforms and books. Do you want to go at the same time, so we know how we look like?

What are the \"others\"? is it the book covers etc? think easier to get books and uniforms there too...I'm just wondering if the Popular membership discount applies to textbooks...thought of going on the friday to avoid the crowd though it will be great if i can meet you on sat....guess we'll arrange nearer to the date..
are you still in the PV?

I believe so. Better still, normally in June and in December, they have this discount voucher of 20% in their store magazine which can be applied to most items they sell.

which means its actually cheaper to get it in Popular? In that case, I should just get the books from Popular when i received the booklist...
Thanks Chief!!!

Yeah, lets discss this later - closer to the date. Yup, I'm still doing the PV, thot I'll finish up this year and then see about next year.

That's a good idea then! Maybe we should go to Popular and check out the prices before going to the school. Then we should have an idea of which is cheaper. Also in my case, I have to buy 2 sets of everything, so with discount, should have some substantial savings.

I thought it's only 5% discount on textbooks.

i know what you mean...any saving is definitely welcome.....let's compare notes when we got the booklists and done checking....another good thing about buying at popular, can use credit card so earn some points as well....;)
