EOFY Sales & Window Shopping..

Not a good combination! Window shopping should never mean anything but buying windows for your house of car.

Skipping the gym on a Thursday night to go window shopping with Little Sis was a bad idea since the recent recovery of my credit card. I ended up buying a viscose wrap from Portmans at 60% off, a very yellow umbrella from Esprit (not on sale), a split ticket for tomorrow’s $90 million lotto jackpot and a cute teapot from one of my favourite stores T2.

I love heading into T2, its always so inviting with tiny samples of their variety of teas that most of the time I end up buying something. Earlier this year, my KK bought me the loose leaf Chamomile tea in the tin canister, I must admit the quality is better than other brands I’ve tried as when it’s brewed it becomes slightly thicker than other Chamomile teas and goes well with honey.

T2 teas are admittedly a bit pricey, so if you know better places to go to get standard teas like Green Tea that’s good quality and cheaper, get it there. A specialty tea that I bought this month from T2 that is worth it is Very Berry Fruitea. My best bud EC introduced me to it and is a tea we always have when I visit her place. It’s made up of various dried fruit like strawberries, elderberries, black berries, raspberry with rosehip and hibiscus when brewed produces jelly pink coloured tea. It’s caffeine free and not overly sweet and is perfect for a cold winter night in front of the telly.

The cute hand painted tea pot I bought, brews enough for a large cup perfect if you don’t feel like sharing or having much tea. What’s great about it (there’s not usually much great about a tea pot) is the tea strainer inside the pot sits close to the well of the tea pot, so it continues to infuse up to the last drop which some other pots do not do.

Some of my other purchases this week having free entry to the Every Woman Expo, I bought a couple of bottles of award winning olive oil by Dash, heaps of snacks to take home and these fresh-water pearl stud earrings. It was great value at less than $20, mainly because the backings and pins aren’t silver or gold (it’s the same quality you’d expect from Sportsgirl). I love the colour!

Anyway gtg, lots of love Little J!
