We went down to Expo again for the Courts Expo Fair, hoping to chance upon a good price for any home appliances that we may require. Well, in particular the Dyson fan. It was only after we gotten our house that we realised that there are so many fairs in Expo, and one could always get a better price there during such fairs, as compared with the sales in the big stores at the shopping malls. There may be times where we could get a better price online too, but some products just require us to have a hands-on on the physical item because we invest in the buy, and the fairs are definitely the best place to be. It does not have to be just home appliances too. Even stationeries, pet foods, soaps etc could be found at a steal price there, if you could wait for it that is. It would defeat the purpose if you ran out of soap and choose to wait 2 months for the Body Shop Expo Fair wouldnt it?
Back to the fan. Had wanted to get it ever since we saw the advertisement in the cinemas, and we fell in love with the sleek and sci-fi design of the fan. However, we had then not invested in this because well, the price is too premium-ish. So it had always been in our to-have-list but never in the to-buy-list.
It was only when our house was in the making then we realised we needed a tower fan in the living room because a ceiling fan would not be effective because of the positioning of our sofa, and the hubby thinks that the wall fan is just fugly. So we had to get a standing fan, and although it was often debated to be a bad idea because it takes up estate space, and could be troublesome during house cleaning because it would be in the way, we had to get one because it was the only option. But most standing fans ain't exactly aesthetically pleasing, except our dream fan. And so, it was purchased.
