CROCS Mega Sale at Mega Tent

This is my entry for this week's Photohunt. Four pairs of Crocs I got from the Mega Sale.

4 pairs of crocs

I passed by the huge SALE sign the other day and I decided to visit today. The sign says it opens at 10am up to 8pm, we were there at 10:15 and boy! I was so surprised to see a long line. Good thing I am a morning person and decided to be there very early. We were in by 10:30 am and was out at 12:30nn.

Nope, I didn't splurge! I just got four pairs, one for each member of my family. The 2 hours were dedicated to haggling for the design and size. I am telling you, you have to be ready for battle when you go there especially in the women's section. At about 11am, the organizers thought of a way for the ladies to get their pairs easily, by themselves and not through the 5 or so personnel assigned in the women's section. Hopefully the following days would be better, learning from day 1.

As we were about to exit the Mega Tent, I can still see the long line of people cueing to get inside, despite the scorching heat.
Crocs Mega Sale

Well, I guess you'll do anything for a good bargain. For those of you who are interested, the sale will run up to Sunday. So you can still grab those fabulous, comfortable Crocs. Entrance is free for BPI cardholders and PhP50 for non-cardholders.

zeal4adventure said...

Good for you! I get turned off with long queues and tend to forgo the sale. :-( My cousin though was there yesterday and today! And I think she's a happier person now haha!

Mojo said...

I didn't know crocs came in any style other than the one at right. Guess I learned a couple of things from this theme eh?
1) The Chinese hava a phobia for the number 4, and
2) Crocs come in more than one style.

For me? The first lesson is much more useful.

Very nice shot! They all look nice & comfy too :)

You did well! My favourites are the pair right at the back.

EastCoastLife said...

Interesting! You have to haggle for a good price?

feefifoto said...

Those are all Crocs? I thought all they made was the ugly clogs.

I posted a FOUR also. Please take a look: http://blog.feefifoto.com. Thanks.

Excellent photo for this week. :) I didn't know they made such a variety of shoes. :)

stan said...

how much did u spend in all? I remb being in greenhills last yr and I bought like 6-7 pairs of flipflops like I did 2-3 years ago - enough to last me in the meantime before I get a chance to head to Manila again. Haha.

Nice pairs you got there. My SIL was there too. We just asked her to buy for us. Sadly she couldn't find the style I like but she was able to buy a pair for hubby. Sayang nga kasi kabibili lang namin ng new Crocs for Yohan.

I had a hard time at the tent. But yeah, it was kinda worth it for the price.

Here's another great find. Branded bags @ 50% off mall prices (e.g. Lacoste, RL, etc.)

I hope you'll find time to check it out. Thanks!
