My work has these crazy sales every now and again. We hold the import and trading rights to a number of major foreign brands like J-Crew, Miss Sixty and many, many more. Anyway, they usually hold these sales in tiny little meeting rooms during our lunch break and after work. It's nuts - people get pushed over and once you are in the craziness, it's physically hard to get OUT of the room. Of course I can never resist the temptation to go and have a look - I've gotten some amazing bargains.
So yesterday I scored a lovely fleece jacket for 1000 yen (about $10), a dark navy/black (I still can't pinpoint the colour) trenchcoat for 2000 yen (about $20) - it was originally 20,000 yen and I also picked up some Ralph Lauren Polo shorts and a button up shirt for Jake - 500 yen ($5) a piece. I love me a bargain.
Here's a pic of the coat. Sorry for the dark and crappy keitai pic but that's all I can manage today. Oh and there's another ladieswear sale tomorrow and EVERYTHING is 500 yen. Think I'm going to skip it though and go to the gym.....probably.
That is a great coat. Score!
