Memorial sales in forever 21 (XXI)

Memorial sales is going on around US. I had lunch at the food court just opposite forever 21. After noticing many people purchasing from the store, I hesitate but decided to take a look at the sales items. I hesitated because it is all female store :)

The sales is pretty good but I just buy some tops because I afraid may not get the right size for V for bottoms. This forever 21 store is 2 storey but size wise, I think it is comparable to Queenbay's.

Above is the black turtle-neck short sleeve knit blouse.

Teal color three quarter sleeve blouse with flare and back ribbon

White-beige long sleeve thermal clothes with turtle-neck top

Black turtle-neck long sleeve top. I think the sleeve is a little long for V. But the sleeve can be pulled-up so it looks like short sleeve.

"Train" style Guess bag from Woodburn

"Train" style Guess bag. Feminine look. Available in two colors, white and black. I personally think the while looks nicer hence I bought this. I suspect the diamonds can be easily dropped because in the bag, it comes with 5 pieces of spares.

Memorial weekend shopping

Did not purchase a lot this round due to I believe 4th July will have more sales. Just obtained some that I think worth to buy. I guess I improved in controlling the spending :) 

This pic is from last year's purchase. Much more compared to my trunk load in above pic.
I will snap a similar pic before I leave for home.

Jacket from Columbia Sportwear

It is still pretty cold during the morning and evening in Oregon although now already close to June. It is cold especially during rainy days. I would say 4 of out 5 days in Oregon it rains.

The jacket I get is with titanium insulation which suppose to reflect back the body heat to the wearer. I also like its light weight design and waterproof material. Waterproof is pretty important in Oregon as I mentioned above :)

Lunch at Russel Street Bar-B-Que

Their logo is pig head with star around it. The glass at the right is actually a bottle.

Since their logo is pig head, so I decided to order half rack of baby pork ribs with 2 sides. The sides I chosen is french fries and baked beans. It comes with 2 slices of toast.

Overall experience is good. Still miss the Reo's Ribs though. This shop is much further away compared to where I am staying now.

Shopping at Coach during memorial weekend

I bought one wristlet and one small handbag today. Since it is sales today, the shop offer additional 30% discounts. The deal is pretty good. I also buy the cleaning solution too because I remember one of V's coach wallet already stained.

New prepaid phone -- Samsung Gusto

 Just obtained the cheapest prepaid phone for the use while I am in the states. It cost USD30 with USD10 preloaded airtime. Valid for 2 months. I got it from Best Buy.

It cost 25 cents to call per minute and 20 cents to send or receive text messages. I expect this to be claimable since my boss recommend me to get it. :)

Expect nothing great out of this phone compared to my HTC HD2 :) 

Clam shell phone which is useful for basic usages. Best of all, it is cheap. Comes with micro-USB charger so my HTC can charge using this charger too...
