Borders Malaysia RM200 Book Voucher

today i woke up at 11.40am.
after that, my ex-housemate phoned me to have lunch together since he had "put an aeroplane" yesterday night.
while walking to have our lunch at the nearby shop, he shared quite a "scary+pervert" incident appear in TBR about a "underwear thief".
the "scary" things i feel was about the thief "cut few stripe" on the underwear and put it back on the same place after found out that it was a men underwear.
seriously what kind of "weird" story also can happen in this world.
anyways, i went back home after that while waiting my friend to came for using the RM200 book voucher given by the government.

around 1.30pm he came and we went to the Mc Donalds at Melati Utama to have lunch.
actually i had eat my lunch but i still ate for the second time since there is still a promotion for the McD lunch hour.
somehow i just shared some story and having great conversation at there with my friend.
after that, we went to the Borders Malaysia at Berjaya Time Square for spending the book voucher and reached at 3.20pm.
the first thing that i saw at the counter was about the small sign board showing benefits of spending RM50 BBIM book voucher as below.drop by any Borders store and spend a minimum of RM100 (2x RM50 BB1M vouchers) to receive a Free Borders Rewards Card membership and Free Starbucks Tall-sized beverage.

then i just look on the book i interested which about computer stuff.
besides, the Borders staff was quite polite and can unwrap the wrapped book when i having few book choices to select.
on the other hand, i did have the feeling of like "buy things without looking price" during my moment at there because the voucher seems like "unlimited money".
anyways, i just used RM127 to buy the iPhone application development programming book in hope i can learn something new and the rest of the money to buy stationery.
actually there is some rules need to follow when using the BB1M voucher where you can only spend RM10 on each RM50 voucher for stationery. (not sure other bookstore is same or not)
moreover, it require the owner of the voucher to use it which is not transferable .

during my checkout, i just need to verify the voucher by providing my Identity card.
after paying at Borders bookstore, you can eventually get the FREE Any Starbucks Beverage (12oz, Tall Size valid till 31 December 2012) as picture below.furthermore, you can also get the Borders rewards card membership as picture below.one thing i feel that their "Marketing Strategy" was quite good when the membership come with two small card to be share with your friend.
well, the benefits of the using the membership card was getting 5% discount on all magazines and 10% of different type of category books.
the great things was i feel they seems to have "partnering" with Starbucks because you can have 10% discount on Starbucks food and beverage on selected outlets.

after that, we went to walk around the shopping mall.
it seems that there was an anniversary warehouse sales for Subzero clothes and pants.
i was quite happy when bought a jeans that cost only RM39 instead of RM189 for normal price.
although i not sure whether it really cost that expensive on the normal day but i just feel so happy when gained a great discount.
maybe the reason they give out such discount was due to the limited size of the jeans because at first i plan to buy a more beautiful design but don't have the size i want.
around 7.20pm we went to the Lot 10 to have our dinner but feel just enough full.
besides, i also tried the "Tan Tart" (egg tart) and the salmon sushi nearby there.
around 9.30pm we make a move from there.

during the moment at car, i just have some great conversation with my friend.
i seems to be more positive thinking although the "negative" one keep coming in.
perhaps i start to understand the keys to happiness was to be satisfy with what you have.
on the other hand, it seems that positive thoughts can lead to positive actions and feeling whereby if your first thought was it will be going a great day, eventually it will be.
finally i arrived back home around 11pm.
overall today i feel that i had spend a lot of money but quite happy with it.
guess that's all for my voucher usage as picture below.after this, i think will be no more spending for my "entertainment fee".
later on, i just continue play a while of the game with my friend.
at last, just hope can "faster" find a job to work.
