I Shop, I lose money! I was warned!

Just reading through the title makes it clear, am probably the dumbest person on Earth! No problemo, you live n’ learn – the hard way.

After I got the USWS account, went online and did my first online purchase; I waited anxiously for the stuff to arrive (putting in mind that this will open new shopping worlds to me and my sisters were pretty psyched up about the same), regardless the fact that everything’s available in the local market, well, almost everything… So, the first week was over, dakhalna the second and then yesterday and I went to myself: “Girl, you gotta pick the phone up and give’m a piece of your mind”. I sent an email instead and the stuff were in Kuwait and stupid me didn’t pay for the shipment!!! I  daily check my mail but I didn’t see any reminders from them nor a phone call, which was odd since the lady goes like: “your phone goes like, cannot reach subscriber every time I call!” and I went like: “!!! WTH!?” Mo moshkela, I want the stuff and I explained that ama first timer and blhblah blah and she was helpful and seriously, I don’t think ana kafo online shopping!

TODAY, I got the boxes (I was surprised that they came in two packs) and I snapped elsoura and I know this will sound stuuuuuuuuupid but the order was for Lint Rollers (Yup and  I received like 20 something of those thingies!!!!!), I seriously don’t know if they sell’em here wala bothered to look and my mom loves them so I said what the heck!  At least I got to try the account!

    what’s a lint roller?!

  2. chikapappi Says:

    :) Cuz we have the cats at home o their hair (fur) is annoying, we have to use like a brush to remove it, especially if we wear dark colors; It’s a plastic thingy, with a roll of sticky paper (nafs tape) that you can rip cut each time the patch of sticky paper is full of hair.. very handy invention .. better than a regular brush

    you can find lint rollers here. Me and Nat get them because of our dog. In sultan center you can find them upstairs near the camping gear. You can also find them in Ace Hardware.

    I made my first online purchase when I got the Box moved to a new server, but I don’t feel it really counts because A- I wasn’t using my own credit card and B- I didn’t buy anything tangible. I am still waiting for that day to come!

  11. Chikapappi Says:

    Sknk, what camping gear?! That’s my desk at work :[

    Judy, That’s the thing! I didn’t know, didn’t bother askin’ anyone, wouldn’ get my lazy behind to move and search… hehehe! I deserve it, but am happy that I got to “shop”

  12. Chikapappi Says:

    Heheee…. yeah Tololy this is what i wanted to do- feel the items in my hands… I was so worried when i had to use the cards for online payment bas now khalaaaaas, ain’t stoppin’ me any more…

    It is actually more fun buying online (not all items) bas it makes things much more easier, God I got so used to this laziness..
