Baskin Robbins - Pink Wednesdays

OK,
So since I have some time on my hands:

  1.  after finishing my assignments
  2. While waiting for TM to finish Kumon
  3. Before going to church for Burn because Ryan needs to practice with Jared
I decided to post another something. I heard this over the radio, and I am pretty sure it is Legit. 



Thats right. Read the banner. Wear pink on a Wednesday and a double Junior scoop for the price of One Single scoop. If you look carefully at the small print, the price states that a Single scoop costs RM7.50

Might be a good deal.. Unless you do not have anything pink to wear and end up buying a pink shirt for anything more than RM 5.--

Papa Johns All you can eat

Thats right,
Papa Johns, the pizza place has an all you can eat offer at their IOI mall outlet. And, yes, I took the picture off another blog.

What and When?
They serve 3 or four different types of pizza for you to gulf down from 12pm -3pm every Tuesday. 
The meal comes with some pretty cool sauces to dip you pizza in, and a bottomless drink, usually coke. 


How much?
The Price: RM 9.90 + tax = RM 11+ or so.

Sounds like a dream come true? Well, not really.


The bad
First of all, unlike most all you can eat things, there is not buffet style eating where you can pile your plate up and eat as much as you can. You have to sit down at your place and wait for the waiter/waitress to come to your table and give you a small slice of pizza. With such a long waiting time before your next pizza, you tend to lose your appetite. You also tend to drink your coke, and fill your stomach with it.

As mentioned there are 3 or 4 different types of pizza. Unfortunately you do not get to choose what exactly goes on your plate. You see, there are many people all sitting down. If you turn down your chance to eat you small slice of pizza because you're picky, someone else is gonna eat it. You'll then have to wait till more stock comes in. =p

It takes quite a while before the next slice comes around. So suppose you're free and have all the time in the world to just sit there  from 12pm - 3pm?

We still have a problems. Lets say you reach there at 12pm. You eat with everyone else till about 1pm. Then people start to leave, and more people come in, who have not eaten. Well, obviously all the waiters will serve the new people first. By the time, they finish serving the newcomers, the pizza is finished without you having your small slice! You then have to wait for the next round.

My advice.
Go there at 12pm. Sit somewhere near the kitchen so that you get to be the first served as soon as the pizza comes out.

Speaking from experience,
Bryan

Carl's Junior


If you ever find yourself bored, really thirsty, tired of standing or walking around in a shopping centre, then Carl's Junior is the place to go.

Why do I say that?
Isn't it kinda expensive?

Well, yes, it is kinda expensive. BUT, I did not say you had to go there to eat anything.
Yesterday I found myself at 1utama ( again). There were no good movies, thus I was walking along the long stretches of 1utama, wearing my legs out.

I decided to go into Carl's Junior. And it was a very very good decision.




Reasons?
  1. I was thirsty
  2. I was tired
  3. I wanted to sit
At Carl's Jr, much like McDonalds, they allow to refill you drinks.

One small cup cost about RM 3.00, before tax.

Is Rm 3.00 worth a drink?
NO! Do not waste your time buying a drink anywhere for Rm3 - unless its Carl's Jr.
I refilled my ice lemon tea drink 4 times yesterday! less than 1 ringgit a drink.

So... is Rm 1.00 worth a cup of iced lemon tea?
YES!!!

Another plus point was there the environment in Carl's Jr is pretty good. Clean, aircon, nice seats, and a pencil in the middle of the table

Movie prices at GSC






Everyone loves to go to the mall for one of three reasons.
  1. shopping
  2. waiting for someone else ( killing time)
  3. movies
So, today Ill be talking about watching movies. Watching is like the ultimate pastime for me ( and i sure I;m not alone in that)

Ofcourse it can get a little over the necessary budget. RM10 on average per show.

That is why, whenever I can, I do try to go to the cheaper cinemas. With the high competition between the three leading cinemas ( gsc, tgv adn cineplex), there are loads of offers available. In my opinion tgv is ultimately the cheapest. But not necessarily the best.

Anyway, we are talking about GSC. Take a look at the GSC pricing at different locations. No consistency at all. Which means some places are CHEAPER than others :)

click here for real comparison

GSC Midvalley, weekend, normal seat = RM 11
GSC Pavillion KL, weekend, normal seat = RM12
GSC 1utama, weekend, normal seat = RM 11
GSC Alamanda putrajaya, weekend, normal seat = RM 10
GSC summit USJ, weekend, normal seat = RM 9
GSC ioi Puchong, weekend, normal seat = RM 9
GSC Sentral square, Sungai petani, weekend, normal seat = RM 7

I do suppose location and comfort play a large role. But for a guy like me, living in Puchong. I certainly prefer to go to ioi mall.

The cheapest deal is of course to watch a movie, on a weekday, before 6pm, with a student card. ps, the EON bank credit card deal with GSC seems pretty good.
-Priority ticketing lane
-50% off ticket purchase up to RM100

Pizza Milano


Ever feel like having some nice Italian food but find it just a little bit ( or quite a bit) over the budget? Good news for you! A few friends of mine introduced me to this great new place some months back - Pizza Milano


If you feel like having some Italian food, with a budget of no more than RM 10 + some 5% tax. Then Pizza Milano is the place to go. I am unsure if they have other branches elsewhere, but there is one located in 1utama.

Location: Right outside Secret Recipe or McDonalds at the 2nd Floor (Old Wing) of 1Utama Shopping Complex.

Price: Depending on what you order, you can get a decent meal w/o drink for RM10 or so. The small personal pizza is about Rm9.99, 7inch diameter. But I usually go for the cheaper and more filling pasta!





I never carry my camera, so i Googled pizza milano for some pics. Found some nice ones on this guys site. Check it out.
