Great Exploitations

Filed under: Humour, Parenting

I think everyparent knows this secret. Kids and babies can get you anywhere…real fast. Besides getting you more wrinkles and stress lines…they can also get you onto airplanes and errmmm…actually, that’s about all I can think of, much much faster. Always get priority on airplanes…and maybe seats in buses..but that may not be true in this country.

Yesterday, I struggled to bring my kids to do some banking. Mind you, it was just at the neighbourhood shops…but nevertheless, I still worried about getting good shady (so that car won’t be too hot when kids get back in) and very convenient (read: located close to bank) parking.

Wah..I was in real luck yesterday. Shady and just next to the bank, parking. So, pulled out the kids and threw one into the stroller. Asked No.1 to push No.2. Both had their thrills n spills.  In the bank, they were very well behaved because of pre-warnings of mama screaming and NO TV, if they bang into people, scream at the top of their lungs and being tantrum-y.

So banking only took less than 5 minutes. When we were out, No.1 refused to go home..so we went to the neighbourhood Chinese Medical Hall. I frequent that shop alot because Milk there is so cheap and everyone I’ve told, sends me orders to buy for them. So, I normally buy in bulk.

After getting what I want, at the cashier, I told the lady, "Enfagrow". "Oh…sudah beritau org ambil ah?", she asked. I said, "Yar!"…gesturing to my No.1 who was struggling to carry 1 box of milk. "Yar..itula dia", I said.

She giggled giggled. I plonked No.2 on the counter to take out money. No.1 demanded to be plonked on the counter with the brother. So…two of them having a good time on the counter..when the cashier tit-tit-tit the amount.

WAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GOT EVEN MORE DISCOUNT LEH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why? Because both No.1 and No.2 smile smile smile…flirt flirt flirt with the 2 Indon cashiers.

I was sooo happy! I didn’t think I get any discount for buying ONE box!!!!! Makes sense to bring them out more …. to save some sens, eh?

Turn up your magic boys!!!!!!!!!
