another week of excitement!!!

hi there!

this is the second part of my holiday chapter...

a week before going back to inti, i was assigned by my mother to decide on things to buy as present for some activities held by her school. she said that a team that participated in the activities were about 10 people and therefore 10 item for each winner places. my mother and i started to plan the things to buy and how many of them...
then we went for a survey to some places in kuantan to search for the item...
it's hard to choose a perfect item for a present...
but finally after three days we manage to decide and bought many present...
my brother's room that had just emptied (since he had gone to uitm) had been fulled with presents~
we bought flushy toys like bears and pillow, tupperwares, bottles, towels, mugs, files, bags, stationeries, etc.

talk about the files~_~
it was only a plastic file, we bought them from the Maidin store by bulk...
it stated that 1 file was for rm2.50, my mom said that we need about 60files so i counted and then i said 'mom, why not we buy 80 of them?? it only cost rm152 rather than buying 60 = rm150....as my mom agrees i told to the sales assitant to bring 80 of the files down to the counter and she said not worry there are in the box downstairs...so we went down to the bulk counter to pay for them. i saw a man was bringing down 2 big box of the files, i told my mom 'can it fit the car???' we only smiled to each other...
my mom hand over the money to me and when i was paying for the files, the cashier check the cash machine, it shows 1 box...she was surprised and asked the one who bring the box down to check how many of the files in one box, in a glance he said the two box is a total of 80 in it....i don't like to wait so i just ask him to bring the box to the car.....
several days later, for precisely 3 days i think...
when i was wraping up the files, i found out that i didn't open the other box yet but i had finish with all the quantity of present that i wanted....so i think back and count the box....surprisingly we had 160 files!!!
so i told my mom, panicking, 'mom we stole some files...haha~_~', my mom didn't understand at first, so i explained to her slowly and clearly...thank god my father was around so he help us to send back the box to the Maidin store......that was funny, didn't the one who bring the box down count the quantity before giving it to us???? didn't the machine detector rings when the box pass through it as the cash machine only detects 1 box???

haha~_~ i don't know what really happen but my mom said that this maybe a lesson to us...maybe God was testing either we are honest or not....either we sent back the box or not....

end of chapter two....

yeah, a lesson indeed....
i was thinking if there's any stock loss due to consumer taking away their stocks accidently...hehe~_~
i don't know who to blame for this problem...but it's better not to blame anyone as anyone can make mistake and someone have to correct the mistake back...
