Yesterday Jenine and I went to the Mega Tent in Ortigas where there's a mega sale going on.... it's the CROCS Mega Sale of the year. They're giving out up to 80% off on selected styles. For the Men and Women styles they only gave 50% off but for Kids' styles it's 80% off.
It was my first time to go on a big sale like this so I was so shocked to see that the line going to the entrance of the tent was so long! As early as 3 pm the traffic was already horrible, the security guards of the place already closed the gates because there was no parking available. All the parking slots along St. Paul College, Pasig was already occupied down till the parking slot along Brent International School on both sides of the streets. I arrived at my daughter's school after one hour of being stuck in traffic. Lucky for us when we got there, there's a car vacating a slot just beside our car so we were able to park.
My daughter and I just walked from our parking slot up to the Mega Tent because it was just located beside DECS in Ortigas. When we got there, luck was on our side. A friend and classmate of my daughter approached us when we were lining to get inside and told us that her father was one of the organizers of the said event. She just pulled us out of the line and told us to proceed to the exit door and we were ushered inside by her father. Now I can understand why in cases like this, connections are needed. Thank you very much to Gloria and her father for letting us in without having to fall in line!
Inside it was like "Ukay Ukay".... all the Crocs are scattered in boxes all over the place so you really have to find your own size and style. All the regular sizes are all gone so I didn't have enough choice but to get what is left of the lot. There are tons of boxes with all the styles and sizes all together so it's really hard to find what style and size you want. When we were finished, the cashier has also a very very long line. I lined up for an hour and a half before my turn to pay.
These are the styles we got. The only ones we got. Many bought boxes and boxes of different Crocs as if there's a hoarding of Crocs going on in there! I only got one for each of us. We don't really need two or three pairs each even if they're on a mega sale. I am happy and content with what we got.

Since the start of school vacation, our family spend more time in our province in Bulacan. We go there every Thursday then back to Paranaque again on Tuesday. So we get to spend the whole weekend there. Yesterday, my hubby asked me and the kids if we wanted to watch the movie "Knowing" staring Nicolas Cage in the theatre house of "The Cabanas" in Malolos, Bulacan. We were so surprised because very seldom that we would watch a movie with him. Usually it's just only me and the kids. So I really considered yesterday our 'Family Day'. We were so excited that as early as 10 am I already reserved our seats for the 5:30 pm screening time. The kids really enjoyed the day especially when we were complete. We just hope that we can watch again with my hubby. It really feels good when we were all together doing something that all of us really enjoy. Till next time!
