Wouldn't be called a convenience store for nothing! It's like my SM for all things fun and cheap (boohoo, ya cheapskate am I)! I remember as a kid, my dad would bring us cookies, gum, candies & chocolates every night from 711 since this is the only store open by the time he comes home from work. Imagine I would chew on my favorite Bubbly Yum, (watermelon flavor, hehe) in the middle of the night and end up with gum all over my hair when I wake up!
This store is also our refuge whenever we travel abroad. I remember spending New Year's somewhere and guess what's for New Year's Eve dinner, 711 microwavables (ooh the yang chow rice is tdf) since we didn't want to go out, scared that we might be caught up dead in fireworks. And recently, P and I hoarded their bottled drinks (cute small Pepsi and Mirinda bottles) and the free mineral water that goes with every boxed meal!
Everyday at work as soon as I've settled in, right after checking my email, I instantly hit the store for my breakfast (yes i know not a healthy choice) and of course for my daily dose of treasure hunting. Going to 711 is like going over a store full of discoveries. Supermarkets are nothing, compared to this! Some items that I recently got are not even carried by big supermarkets!
That's why I decided to come up with a post on my "discoveries" in this treasure trove called 711!
P.S I am in no way connected with 711, haha!
