The Branded Shoes.

One day I visited a friend and he just kept a box infront of me. It was plain white box and I could guess the inside stuff. A pair of shoes, Yes, thats correct. It was a nice pair, not superb though. My friend was quite excited about them as they were BRANDED ones. The first question that came to my mind was "How much did they cost?" and my friend replied "Rs 2900/-". 'What the crap, 2900 for a pair that is not even seen any advertisements' was my initial reaction. I understood my friends brand consciousness but the idea of spending 2900 bucks on such a thing was something I could not get. Anyways he was happy and that was worth.

A few days later we were just strolling around at Linking Road, Bandra and I found a Pair of Crocs really interesting. I got them for 250 bucks after much bargaining. Just as we walked away from the store, my friend says,"You people dont know how to Bargain, you could have got them for 200." Now look who's talking, a guy who picks a branded pair for 2900 without even uttering a single word at a uptown store thinking it as an embarassment.
