Pointing to Toyland
The word ‘Mattel’ brings
me two mental images; Barbie dolls, and Hot Wheels. Plus a vague image of
Superman’s red cape (Although that is called ‘Mantle’).
Mattel has been busy this
year. Instead of 1, we had 2 warehouse sales for year 2012. I’m not complaining…hopefully
d next one would be a few days before my next birthday (Imagining big, collector
items with wings / wheels….*drool).
…Hmm…who am I kidding…any
toy of mine will end up being Irtiza’s….
The conniving ad
Anyway, there was a
Mattel warehouse clearance sale at SSTwo Mall from the 27th till 29th
December. This was actually my 2nd Mattel warehouse sale visit (The 1st one was the one at Atria Shopping Centre back in 2011). As wifey was away at work, Irtiza and I went to the sale last
Saturday.
An extremely happy kid at the entrance
Parents were the most excited bunch of people here
"Train-ing dey!" - Denzel Washington with an Indian accent
Crossed upon some zebras for pre-schoolers here (RM50-80)
Barbie girls...in a Barbie world (RM10-15 I think...)
The DC characters were a bit limited in number
A Pixar Cars lover
Seriously...would you buy this for your kids?
More Cars characters...with price ranging between RM50 - RM130
Queuing up to pay for the toys
No, this is not boxing day
What we plundered for the day (RM75 in total...arr!) :)
It was worth it. The selections were a little bit limited though...but perhaps I shouldn't have come on the 3rd day (The first rule for warehouse sale shoppers: You should always come in the first day). I'm anticipating the next warehouse sale to be sometime around the 3rd - 6th month for next year. So, keep your eyes open for the ad :)
