A busy Saturday


The main event on Saturday was to buy a double bunk bed for Kristine and Kimberley. We took a bus with a change between home and this monster shopping place, more a market than a mall. The section we were advised to visit carried upmarket brands and thus upmarket prices. A pine wood bunk bed can go from Y4000 to Y10,000. For a fleeting moment, I wanted to just pay for one and go home. We walked round and round but we were not comfortable with the price. We discussed crossing the city to IKEA but we didnt have enough time that afternoon. Then Grace asked a receptionist if there were other bedding furniture sections around. Yes there was one within walking distance. We found our bunk beds there. Solid pine with equally nice finishing and design, all for Y1150. Paid a deposit. Beds will be delivered on Monday (versus 20 days for the branded equivalents). Photo taken in a bus.
