My shopping adventures continue. Went to the KTM and it was impressive. Better bring a thick wallet, didn't see any of the infamous "Wal-Mart" shoppers. Stopped in the CD store to check on the Katy Perry CD. They had one but it must have been a greatest hits thing because I have 13 of her songs on my Ipod and I had everyone song on the CD already. So I didn't fork out the 55 SR. I strolled through the Arabic section but didn't buy anything cuz I couldn't find the "gangsta rap" section (darn). Was looking forward to pumping the car sterio w/ the windows down and tunes blazing.

They also have a Planet Hollywood. I didn't go in but been to ones in Hollywood, Orlando, and Guam. I would have gone in and bought a shot glass (do that everywhere I go), but for some reason didn't think they would have them.

Shot glass might be used for arabic coffee instead, you never know!

Yeah, that place had some pretty steep prices. Then again, pretty steep priced products.

Purses. Don't get me started on those damn purses! What kind of R&D goes into developing a purse that makes it cost so damn much? Did a guy that found a cure for AIDS, and has a PhD, as well as a Nobel Prize stitch that thing together? Or was it some uneducated worker who's getting paid $20/mo.?

Justify that price for me. At least in a car, I can justify it (some of the time). But a purse?! WTF!

Well I wasn't looking at purses (didn't have a specific outfit in mind), but w/ SAKS and Cartier one immediately knows your in the upper price range. But they did not have a Needless MArk-up (Neiman-Marcus for those who are in the know or from Texas).
