korea 0 Report post Posted August 8, 2008 hmm.. pooh biscuits? neber tried before.. haha.. but i don like the crackers(those like wang wang type) i go there buy Addias product beta.. haha gt anyplace sell deco stuff? interested.. we went to some of the sport shops and nothing much. my hb wanted to buy basketball shorts but nothing much leh. deco stuff? erm, didnt really notice. Hi all, i was thinking of going hokkiado ...and oso buying burberry....is there oso burberry shops over at hokkiado?? initially, we wanted to go hokkaido but only tokyo has disneyland so eventually we dropped the idea of going to hokkaido. hokkaido should have burberry blue label boutique. if you miss the chance of buying burberry blue label in japan dont worry bcos you also can manage to buy in spore. there's a shop (located @ the arcade) in spore imported burberry blue label goods but slightly expensive lor. i'm not really into burberry blue label therefore i only bought a bag.
