The 'Rents came home from a 10-day trip to Perth, Australia last night. Today we went to the Duty Free Shopping Center. (I hesitate to call it a mall.) The drab lighting in the place makes me wonder how balikbayans get enthused about coming here, not to mention a floor layout that gives you only way out if you want to see everything. Tax-free is tax free, I guess.
We managed to come out w/ a lot stuff, mostly edible. Milk and Spam were cheaper, and I got a set of Phillips headphones for 300 bucks less than local retail price. If that wasn't enough, I had a nice surprise of running into my old friend CR, now a practicing attorney. Hopefully we'll run into each other again over the weekend.
