Brisbane City - ChristmasI went to City for Christmas Shopping tonight. I found there is full of people, this Sunday is Christmas.  That is still a few days away. I believe that is because there is night shopping every night until 23/12.  Most of shops will opens up to 9pm. On 23/12, they will open to Mid-night. Everyone needs to do Christmas Shopping!

$10 Quick Cut

$10 Quick Cut
I tried the new hair salon,F10 Quick Cut, in Sunnybank Plaza this Monday. They only provide haircut.  They are similar with QB House in Hong Kong. Firstly, there is a vendor machine. You put  a $10 note into this machine, and then you get a ticket.  Then sit and wait, when there is a hair dresser available, you give the ticket to him.  The 10 minutes hair cutting journey starts.  That is very similar with QB House way. But in Hong Kong, we can use our Octopus card to pay the fee. Well, they are similar, but they are not as good as QB House. I like my cut in QB House more. This is Australia, I cannot ask for too much. F10 Quick Cut can deliver what they say, that is $10 haircut.  I think that is reasonable. That is completed around 10 minutes. Now, my hair is cut shorter. That is what I want.

BananaEarly of this year, we had Cyclone Yasi hit Northern Queensland. It destroyed a lot of banana. As a result, Australia has experienced banana shortage. I saw there was  around $15 per kg in supermarket. Recently, the price becomes more reasonable. Last week, I bought some banana for around $3 per kg. Today, the price is lower! I saw 99 cents per kg in Woolworth.

 

Polo Ralph Lauren@Harbour TownYesterday, we went to Harbour Town Gold Coast. We found Polo Ralph Lauren outlet got  60%Off Storewide. That is a good deal.

Pure Color Polo T ShirtFor pure color polo t-shirt, that is only $35!

Printed Pattern Polo T-Shirt

If you need somethings more stylish, there are some polo t-shirt with printed pattern. Those are $45. That is still a good deal.

If you go to there, you can check them out to see whether the deal are still in there. I think there will still be.

 

The concept of 10 Minutes Hair Cut comes from Japan.   This targets the customers who do not want a fantasy hair style, just want a nice and clean hair cut. I tired this kind of hair salon in Hong Kong. I like it. I just want a quick hair cut.

Today, I found there is this kind of hair salon in Sunnybank Plaza. This opens at the opposite side of Post Office. I will try it later. Well, I wish to try it today, but my hair is still short. I will see whether that is as good as the one in Hong Kong.
