to the main road to look for a taxi and head home, a woman came up to
us and showed us a paper with pictures of purses, watches, clothes,
etc and said in Chinese, "Do you want to buy?". I think we said no and
walked away but maybe I changed my mind or maybe my friend did because
suddenly we found ourselves following her as she led the way! My
friend says to me, "You know she's gonna take us down an alley...".
Naive me says, "No, I think she's taking us to one of these shops on
the street here". Next thing we know, she's leading us down an alley
and I'm quickly reviewing my kickboxing moves from class in my head.
This very non-assuming, unlabeled door opens and we walk into a very
small room filled with high-end brand purses. I think I heard harps
playing. We had no time to buy (remember we were on our way home) so
we just looked around and became friends with these three ladies - one
who actually spoke decent broken English. She gave us a business card
and said to call her next time we are here and she'll have someone
come find us on the street and lead us back because we are now
"old/long-time" customers (tho we bought nothing). This ain't your
ordinary TJ Maxx! Stay tuned to see when we go back and what we
get...
