Summer Shopping

Summer is official arrived in Doha and with that so as sales. Summer sales in Middle East are the biggest event because retailer will give offers in order to lure people to come out into the blazing sun. Typically such event doesn't impact me although I admit I get lure to nice thing all the time and always wanted to buy this and that when I see the price is cheap and this happen even I shop for grocery too :)

So this year summer sales what do I bought? I repeated things :( sadly is inevitable. Well back at Malaysia at last trip I bought a hydration bag to my jog during the summer time here in Doha and I was unlucky that the bladder leaks the first time I used it. So I decided to patch the leak myself by heat the bladder and the bag will melt and seal the leak which it works and I used for the next day but problem is when I drank from it the water taste funny, which I decided not to use it as worried about poisoned from dioxin and so I decided not to use it anymore.  I did contact the seller and he agree to change but I not sure if he change after seeing the patch that I did, if it doesn't then I will buy a hydrapak bladder and use in the Deuter bag. By the way, I bought an imitate Deuter bag. Lesson learn. buy ORIGINAL! The bag is still in good condition and it fits well.

While I can't wait for the exchange until I go back, there is sales at Go Sport Qatar and I found a reasonable hydration bag from Camelbak. Its original price was QR 550 and is on sale for QR290. Although it is not cheaper than Malaysia as is pretty much the same still I go and bought it. The model is Camelbak Mule with 3 liters Camelbak Antidote reservoir. The bags fits well and carrying a 3 liter water at my back help to increase the resistant for first 30 minutes of my run :). Overall I am happy with the bag. And for the imitate Deuter bag I will get a replacement bladder or Hydrapak bladder and use it at Malaysia then I don't have to carry it with me each time I go home. Buying a new hydration bag for Deuter bag will probably cost the same as original one. :)


  
 

actually the price is not cheap, after discount is the same price i could get in Malaysia. just I couldn't wait until i return home to buy one.
