Marks & Spencer Shopping Bag

Dhahran Mall is the most luxurious Mall in Khobar area. The mall looks very gorgeous and has so many world brands outlets there. Even so, I never managed to visit all of them one by one in a visit because it has too many stores and it will be exhaustive.
Some days ago, I decided to visit the mall from the first gate to see if there is something new because I always went in from gate 3 or so. I get out from taxi and enter the mall. I see a new big store with Marks & Spencer brand on its label. My spouse told me that there are nothing to buy inside and it will be embarrassing to get out without buying anything. But I kept going in considering it is a really big store so nobody will notice I get inside. We found so many clothes but my eyes spot something irrelevant for a clothing store. There is a cafe and food section inside the store. I went there and I found some food stuff to buy with lower price compared  to clothes price, to get the shopping bag from brand. I got it.

The clothing price itself is very high but I can find some shirt with reasonable price. I wonder if I come to visit within last 2 months, can I found 60% sale? Since last two months, most clothing store in Dhahran mall made promotion up to 60%.

Actually the shopping bag design is not that exclusive since it is made of plastic not paper like other clothing package. I don't know if I got this plastic shopping bag because I buy only food stuff. I should try to buy some clothes there to get other version, but I think this is satisfying.

Mothercare Shopping Bag

I think that there is a trick from several branded clothing store to avoid 'cheap' label. One of the trick is by collecting and selling some damaged items to isolated store. In KSA, you can find multiple store from the same brand within a city. For instance, in Khobar, you can find Mothercare stores in Rashid Mall, Khobar Mall, and Corniche. Some times ago, I visited Othaim Mall in Dammam, and there are promotion and sales on some stores. One of them is Mothercare. fortunately, there are some crazy prices that you can find for some unsold items like baby drink bottle and leggings for baby. Those items are still goods. Things that make the price very low is the damaged package and price tags. For those items, I got special shopping bag. here it is.

We also took picture for the arabic side.

I also visited the other branch but I can not find the same promotion. I conclude that for Khobar area, to avoid getting cheap label, mothercare stores put their damaged items on Othaim Mall as promotion.
I ,somehow , bought other promotion stuff from Rashid Mall branch and got low prices even though not as low as on Othaim Mall branch. I got also the regular shopping bag.

There is a label saying that the plastic bag is bio-degradable. It means that the bag will decay within short period. Here is the Arabic side.

The design is simple and I think it is not that exclusive considering the regular item prices.

IKEA Shopping Bag

One thing that I love from IKEA is the feeling of living in a luxury of modern life. Even though i can not say that IKEA is a luxury items, it seems like I live in a modern city apartment. Well, the property that I bought from IKEA for my rent are only a simple white table and bed including its frame. The bed and the frame are as-is items but it still looks cool. The remaining items are only cheap stuffs like water sprayer, slippers, glasses, and photo frame. even so, at least I visit IKEA Dhahran branch KSA, at least once in a month. Most of them are only taking breakfast and taking simple modern-life-like food like steak. The food are relatively cheap and some menus inspire us to make our own meals. Of course, I kept the shopping bag for collection.

Simple yet iconic shopping bag, the bag has yellow-and-blue IKEA logo and its creed. I will show you the arabic side.

Actually, I don't know what it means. But I think, it is simply the translation of the English side. Well, nice collection though.

Basicxx Shopping Bag

One of the low price clothing brand in Middle East is Basicxx. They provide high quality fashion with low price. Some promotion also give you crazy low price. One of the branch is on Dhahran Mall, Eastern Province KSA.
We , actually visit the shop very often. But here is one of the shopping bag that we got.

Othaim Markets Shopping Bag

Last month, we visited Othaim Mall in Dammam, KSA. Actually I just want to see H&M store over there. There is promotion on H&M store, but in the end, we bought nothing on H&M. We visited Mothercare store which provided better promotion. After some sightseeing, we went to Othaim Markets and we got some good promotions on many items. As always, I take the bag as collection. Here is the picture of the English side.

and here is the Arabic side.

Centrepoint Shopping Bag

My spouse asked me to change the way my attire. I always wear black semi-suite jacket. Even though its brand is Pierre-Cardin, it has been 3 years old and its color starting to fade away. We decide to check the sale at Centrepoint Dhahran Mall KSA. We got relatively good price for the item. and.. i decide to collect the large size shopping bag. Here is the picture.
