The San Diego Zoo is similar to our Singapore Zoo, hence we decided that we should have gone to the wild zoo instead. We hurried off and dash to the San Diego Zoo’s Wild Animal Park.<\/p>\n

After dinner, we went shopping again! There was 40% off storewide at Brooks Brothers and the shirts that JR had bought 2 days earlier were even cheaper now! With the extra discount, JR bought a few other items. While paying for them, JR did some complaining about the price difference between the items and the shop assistant explained that the discount was only given for the weekend. She added that she could give us the 40% discount for the items that we bought earlier, provided that we could product the receipt. Luckily I had brought all my receipts along with me and we got out “refunds”!<\/p>\n
