Part III

Third day (3/4/09)
We spent the whole day to factory outlets on our last day at BDO.
Diaz, Toko 3, Bale Anak, Grande, Jetset, Episode, Heritage and Cascade. By the way, Heritage and Cascade are connected to each other. Don’t miss to go to Heritage and Cascade ok if you at BDO. It’s happening here.

If you don’t mind about ori things, go to Diaz. Here, there’s a lot of leather handbags and shoes as well. A lot of branded imitation handbags and shoes here. They are mostly first class replica. Some people said that Diaz is the handbags heaven..pure nirvana. But by all mean, they are not cheap, but the bags look so real, it will pass as the real thing.
We cannot bargain here. In my opinion, if one wants to buy this kind of stuff, better go to PBTC as we can ask for lower prices but the choices there are not as many as here. There’s a good and contra anyway. I didn’t buy anything here (still looking for ori things *ngee*)

This year I could say that the children clothes at Bale Anak were not happening compared to last year. There were so many brands that were not evident. I was so disappointed coming here (but grabbed some for Hannah, Ammar & Aqil :D). I would say that Heritage & Cascade is better in term of children variety design and brand clothes.

Grande, Jetset & Episode are near to each other. So just make one stop i.e at Grande, then we just can cross the road to go to the other FO. BTW, House of Donatello (sell shoes) is just around the corner but we didn’t have a chance to go there as we just down to the wire short of time.
I aimed to come again to Grande as I wanted to grab the G2000 shirts and slacks for office work but couldn't find any this time. Last year there's a bundle of that type selling here. The stock must be different every year, so don't expect much. What you got last year, didn't mean you could get this year and vice versa.

Our supir told us that Toko Tiga is the best shop to buy jeans. Toko Tiga sells original jeans with the lowest price compared to other outlets as it acts as an agent/distributor. But not all brands of jeans are here. There’s a Levi’s, Lee Copper, Piere Cardin, Diesel and some other that I forgot already. I’m looking for LV or Guess jeans. Sorry, that type of brands haven’t had here.

We were so frustrated when we realized that there’s a lot of things that were happening at Heritage and Cascade when only we had only 30 minutes before the FO would be closed for the day. Sue & I would like to come back the next day if we could but we already scheduled to leave for Jakata at 9 am (on the next day). Huhuhu…huwaa….

All the pics still not uploaded yet.. later kay!
