Honestly, Australia is my first non-Asian destination and I was really hoping not to shop much. My post birthday trip was to Sydney and then crashed Hakimbo's birthday trip to Melbourne.
I had the intention to get the Apple Watch in Australia since it's unavailable in Singapore till later release. I saw it and fiddle around with it but held back the purchase due to whether I really
NEED it. I came to a conclusion that I'll get it if I don't find other things.
Not really sure whether I'm holding back on the watch or there wasn't anything to get in Sydney. I only managed to get a present for the birthday boy in Sydney and some impulses.

Even though this wasn't anything fanciful but I was a saviour. It enabled me to venture in the rain rather than bumming around in Sydney. |
|
This may cost a little more or unavailable in Singapore. |
|
How could I not love it? |
So Sydney purchase were sort of a maintained impulse but there wasn't really anything that caught my attention even after endless browsing around the stores. So I had the possibility of getting the watch in Melbourne. Or so I thought.
|
There were only 1 H&M store in major cities and the one in Melbourne is the most accessible and grand store. I didn't know that they had a home section. These duvet covers were gorgeous and cheap. At least I got something cheap for HRP rather than the common Ikea ones. |
I had a soft orgasm when I went to browse in Target at Sydney. I had a mental note of the things I would possibly want and will get it in Melbourne instead, hoping not to blow my baggage allowance. Once in Melbourne, I went crazy!!!
|
So nice. Got to have it... |
|
Something for work. |
|
I contemplated to get this and finally succumbed to get it and kind of went overboard with the figures. Now I really wish I gotten more as Singapore doesn't have a lot of it and the price is torturous. |
|
Just had a sample and I bought the whole carton for HRP. Luggage almost overload because of these scrumptious delights. |

My usual travel mementos |
My stint in Target caused me not to get the Apple Watch which I didn't really regret. Somehow I'm still not confident in the newly launch watch which is overpriced too. Knowing Apple, they will release a newer version every year. With that, I'm actually pleased and grateful for my purchases especially the Disney Infinity 2.0 game set and figures.
