yay, new PC

due to the cui-ness of my home desktop.... my dad has decided to get a new PC before the GST hike next month.

1st stop: Harvey Norman, Hougang Mall, 2nd Floor
salesman: oh this is acer's latest bla bla bla bla bla bla..... (most explanation on the PC done)
dad: bla bla bla bla bla bla.... got any other free gifts?
salesman: oh becos this is a new model, we don't have free gifts for it at this promotional price
dad: oh.... really ar?
salesman: actually got lah, the keyboard and the mouse lor...
dad & i: -__-" (like what the hell, who the hell buys a PC w/o the keyboard and mouse)

2nd stop: Challenger, Hougang Mall, 4th Floor
dad: so this is the latest model bla bla bla bla...
salesman: yup (and so he started with some simple explanation on the model wic we alr knew)
dad: okay i want this one.... any free gifts?
salesman: yup we'll give u this, this, this, this.........
dad: ok deal.

Moral of the story: don't try to cheat your customers, especially when the customers are tech-savvy....

and the best thing is that the PC was $100 cheaper in Challenger and we got so much free stuffs... i guess we won't be stepping into Harvey Norman ever again.
