Justification for Being Cheap

Out of the blue, I just had the inclination to visit the local flea market today. I went to the one right in front of the City Stadium.

I really didnt expect to buy anything. But I was kinda hoping to stumble upon some real gems like maybe a vintage Leica camera or a Nikon S1. You know how those scavengers somehow manage to pick up the most unexpected things. I'll just end the suspense here by telling you that I didnt get anything of that sort. Not today.

Instead, I stumbled upon some stalls selling knock-off soccer jerseys. They were just as good as the ones in Batu Ferringhi (Grade A or Number One), but at RM20 cheaper! I ended up with a Zinedine Zidane Real Madrid (Home) jersey for RM30. :)

Justification for buying knock off jerseys:
- Spend RM250 for the real thing, are u kidding me?
- Looks and feels just like the original.
- You can sweat in it and not feel a thing.
- Dont feel the pinch when the player begins to suck.
- Helping the ringgit
- Assisting Malaysia's economic relationship with Thailand

Now I just have to hope that Zindane doesnt move to any other club. :P
