Westfield Doncaster

Decided to take an afternoon stroll at Westfield in Doncaster today.
Half-hour drive from the city.
So far, it's one of the biggest and fab shopping centres I've ever seen.

I like the interior of the mall. It has some resemblance with Powerplant (Rockwell) mall in the Philippines. The structure is also neat and has touch of affluence.
Westfield houses the two popular retailers, Myer and David Jones and other typical Australian stores. They also have wide choice of cafes and restaurants.

In fact, we had yummy snack at T.G.I. Friday's. It was the first time I've seen their resto chain here in Australia. Made me miss my Accenture days.

Then, passed by Toys R Us store where we purchased a little pram for Lori's doll.
Lori enjoyed pushing it around and learning to have sense of direction.

Shoe Shopping

The city stocktake sale is not over yet. There are still some items in the mall that were further reduced, like children's footwear. So we grabbed the chance to check out a pair of walking shoes for our tot.

We had a bit of trouble choosing a nice and comfy pair 'cause Lori's feet grow so fast. Thanks to the Myer shoe assistant who gave helpful tips.

Lori's first pair of Clarks summer sandals :)

Boxing Day '08

It's the time of the year again where everybody is out to join the last installment of the annual stocktake sale.
I went to Myer this morning to grab a set of Mini-Jumbuk quilts, Sheridan bedsheets and towels on sale. I'm happy with my purchase as most of them are 40% off which is I think did not happen last year.
Plus, we were able to buy a nice car seat for Lori.

Anyhow, the Recession might be one of the issues that would stop people from spending money nowadays. But we're still grateful that somehow we still manage to buy what we want once in a while.
