thrifting: beaton 05/23/2015

oh boy, we were having erratic weather for the past few weeks!  one day it's scorching hot, the next day it's raining like crazy.  i hope the weather in your place is not as bad as mine.

the heavy rain didn't stop me from going to beaton ukay-ukay though.  and, thankfully i did, because i picked this vintage coach briefcase bag for only 1200 pesos.  i spent more than i intended for a leather bag.  however, the original new arrival price was at 4800 pesos, which i couldn't stomach by the way.

i luckily got it down to 1200 pesos because i'm one of their regular customers, and it had been weeks since the recent arrival of wares.  it's really a hit-or-miss shopping at beaton's near sm bacoor, therefore the trick is to visit often.  i would suggest twice or thrice a month.  lastly, never forget to haggle politely because a discount is a discount.
