GST credits and the hike...
Got the GST credits banked into my account like on friday and it was a pleasant surprise considering the official date was 1st July. It then struck me that 1st July was a Sunday so of course the credits will come in early... So not much of a surprise anyway...
Was out in town on Sat doing a spot of shopping with the BF. He is in need of new working shirts, pants, socks, tees and jeans (not me k...am not always in shoppaholic-mode :p) so we took to Orchard to see if there are any he can amass.
The crowd was a KILLER. People packed like sardines in a can!
Was it because:
1) Everyone raring to beat the GST hike on the following day
2) Everyone raring to spend their GST credit $$ which was supposed to be used to offset the hike (-_-III)
3) It was a saturday
4) Or, a combination of the above reasons.
I could not breathe and was in a dizzy state of conscious for the rest of the day. Fighting with the over-enthusiastic crowd.
I will probably use my (not much) credits to pay for my (alot) insurances. :P
