I was in Greenhills last Friday. I went inside this camera shop looking for the affordable Canon lens. I was informed that it is out of stock. No surprise there because aside from that lens being as the most inexpensive type, this particular store offers it at a lower price.

I went to our department offsite cum coffeetalk at Valle Verde clubhouse. Afterwhich, I headed to Megamall to visit the Canon store. I was informed that they ran out of the lens too. Again, no surprise there. I checked another store, and again, same results.

I panicked. I asked my sister to google the contact number of this Canon store in Trinoma. I called the store and told them to reserve me one lens till 10pm that day.

I went back to Greenhills to meet with friends. I just thought I could buy a remote control for the camera so we went back in to the camera shop, the first that I visited that day. While asking the saleslady, she gave me this I-have-seen-you-before look, so I sort of explained to her that “Oh, I went in here earlier looking for a lens”.

She told me “Ma’am, we now have 2 of that lens just delivered to us, are you still interested to buy one?”

Enough said. Well, let’s just say, I bought something from that store, and it isn’t the remote control.
