Confessions of a Shopaholic

Tuesday after shift, Bena, Diva and I decided to watch Confessions of a Shopaholic. Having read the book I was a bit disappointed at how different the movie was from the book. Seems like they need to cram a lot of things into the movie. The movie didn’t show how Tarquin used to have the hots for Becky and how he ended up marrying Suze instead who was a second cousin of some sort. Strange how in the movie Luke Brandon was working as editor for Successful Savings when in the book he was already head of Brandon Communications. Strange how they ended the movie with Luke and Becky back together with Luke giving the green scarf to Becky on the sidewalk when in the book it was given in the airport when Becky was about to leave for New York. In the book they got back together when Luke visited Barney’s where Becky worked as a shopping assistant.

They crammed so much in one movie both book 1 and book 2 (Shopaholic Takes Manhattan). But all in all we had a good laugh, I find the movie hilarious and romantic, Hugh Dancy is certainly one cute guy … weeeeeee.  A must see … its a feel good movie :)

Wii

The way overdue internal debate has finally come to an end when Chris (a friend of mine) decided to subscribe to an email subscription notifying him of  Wii fit in stock on various stores in his area, including but not limited to Amazon, Costco, Next Tag and a lot more. He finally decided after reading countless professional reviews from websites and from various blogs to go with Wii instead of Xbox. This item seems to be selling like pancakes despite the fact that its been in the market for quite sometime now. The problem right now is that during the interim where he is still battling over which one to buy, he somehow managed to spent quite an amount of his savings intended for the product. Hopefully in the next month or so he’ll be able to replenish what he has taken and buy the console once and for all.
