YESTERDAY
Time to go home. Some chitchats with a fellow demigoddess, Gracia, over a plate of pork inasal. Decided to head to one of the favorite places to hang out: a bookstore! Transformed yet to a bookworm again. Totally absorbed by the book that was being read : The Magician [2nd book, The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series]. Suddenly noticed the big red banner:
Eyes went wide open. Mind boggled. Closed the book and kept it in the bag. Toured around the bookstore. Picked up a book. Asked for its price.
WHOPPING PHP 598.00!!!
Checked wallet. No money [that much!]. Customer service approached, "Sir, it's 40% off!" Eyes went totally wide. Asked the cashier to compute.
NOW ONLY PHP 359.00!!!
Mouth gaped. Couldn't believe. Asked the customer service, "Until when?". Mr. Customer Service replied, "February 28, sir!". Decided to go home first and then go back and buy the book.
TODAY
Well, knowing that Gracia is a fellow book[shop]aholic, I immediately texted her about the promo. And we'll be checking some books later. Oooooh! I couldn't wait to get my hands to touch a new book that I would soon purchase.
**I will be blogging about THE book when I've already laid my hands upon it :)
