Kaki Shopping

Yesterday, I had to get some craft material for my latest project (to be revealed soon), and the only place I know that sells a good variety of fabric is Kamdar at Bukit Jambul. It has been ages since I stepped into this shopping complex, and where once it was a center full with the hustle and bustle of activity, now it looked really dead and eeriely seedy. There were still some tiny shops open, but most of the sales promoters were yawning away, whiling their time away possibly not getting many customers. In places like these, I clutch my handbag a little more tightly than usual and quickened my pace.

As I entered Kamdar, I started looking for the fabric I wanted, and I was glad that I had a very helpful sales promoter to help me. This Indian gentleman was very patient and took the time to explain everything to me in detail, showing me exactly where to find the fabric I wanted and even suggested where I could possibly check to broaden my choices. I walked out, confident that I had made the right selection based on my preferences, and knowing fully well, that every cent I had spent was worth it. It goes to show that no matter what you are purchasing, be it food items, craft material or even something specific like a picnic blanket, you need to be absolutely sure that you go to the right place for the right shopping experience.
