When Me and the Wifey first got married we got this amazing gift from our friend. She also gave us the M&Ms I once wrote about (she designed that box too). She’s always been very creative and good at designing stuff. And now, She decided to dedicate her time and her ability to create things into starting a business of her own.

One of her gifts to us.

She created her own business and called it Ibrah (means Needle). She parterned with a Kuwaiti online shopping site called PowderTalk. They agreed to sell her stuff to the public. You can find the site HERE.

Something worth noting is that she does these pillows on her own. She has no employees or other helpers. She designs them and makes them from a scratch. And from what I’ve noticed, her material and use of colors are quite unique and durable. 
 
Some of the Ibrah designs you can buy online.

A Few days ago I was talking to Labeba and she mentioned that our local banks don’t allow their employees to wear red ghetras “echmagh.” And today while I was talking with Ali He too confirmed this! My question now, is this for real? any one works in any of our local banks can confirm this? and if its true.. WHY?? What purpose does it serve?

UPDATE:

It seems the rule is applied in

  • Gulf Bank.
  • National Bank Of Kuwait.
  • Kuwait Financial House.

Thanks to Hamad & 5ermesS

 





Today me & Ali were coming back from work and Ali found a new type of petrol machines in the KNPC station. Its located between Mishref and Bayan. He was wondering about new colors so i left my car and went to the employees who were installing it and asked them a couple of questions. I found out that they are introducing 2 more types of fuel, dedicated to our SUPER RICH people for their Super cars.

They are defined as following:

  • Pink Color – Name: Ultra Euro – Cost: 120 Fils/Liter.
  • Orange Color – Name: Ultra Diesel – Cost: 100 Fils/Liter.
  • Green Color – Name: Ultra Super – Cost: 90 Fils/Liter.

Actually the employees there said that they are facing a lot of problems installing the machines & that this station will be the first petrol station to offer these fuel types. So it might takes some time to run them across Kuwait.

Thanks for the picture Ali.

Just found out that Boots will be opening soon in Mishref. Taking Bhs’ location Near Mango world.

Whats going to happen to Mishref’s pharmacy now? Now that they’re opening Boots just meters away from our 24 hours Pharmacy? Is it going to shut down just like Faiha’s pharmacy when Boots opened in Faiha’s Co-op?

Amazon today introduced TextBuyIt, a new service that lets you use text messages to find and buy products sold on Amazon.com. Simply send a text message to “AMAZON” (262966) with the name of the product, search term or a UPC or ISBN code, and Amazon replies with the product or products that match the search, along with prices. To buy an item, customers simply reply to the text message by entering the unique single digit number next to the item they want. Customers will then receive a short phone call from Amazon with the final details of their order and asking them to confirm or cancel the purchase.When customers choose to purchase something for the first time using TextBuyIt, they will be asked for their e-mail address and shipping ZIP code they use for their Amazon.com account. With this information, Amazon uses customers’ default settings for payment method, shipping address and shipping speed, including 2-Day shipping for Amazon Prime members. (I’m Still unsure whether international orders are accepted or not).

tester_1.jpg

A few days ago Me, Bashar and 9K2HN decided to go to Dalag Es’hail Restaurant/Cafe which is located in Souq Almubarkiya to have something to eat. They have amazing Grills by the way. Anyway, after we finished 9K2HN suggested to have a look at a shop that specialized in…? Guess what?! Tester Perfumes! 😀

tester_2.jpg

The shop offers two kinds of perfumes:

  • Knockoff Perfumes.
  • Authentic Tester Perfumes. (Just want to mention that the tester perfume will last much longer than the normal ones, Thats why I prefer them).

tester_5.jpg

The price range for the Knockoff Perfumes was about KD3 – KD6, However the testers were around KD7.5 – KD10.

tester_3.jpg

The only problem with these testers is that they do not come with their original box. For me thats not a big deal!

Thanks Bashar & 9K2HN for inviting me, I had a blast. 😛

time_capsule_1.jpg

A few days ago i received my Time Capsule, the 500GB version. it was supposed to be shipped at the end of Feb. but due to some version update Apple delayed it till the end of March.

time_capsule_2.jpg

time_capsule_3.jpg

Whats in the box:

  • Time Capsule.
  • Power Cable.
  • Manual.
  • Installation CD.

    time_capsule_4.jpg

    I thought it would fit nicely on top of my Mac Mini, but turned out its a lot wider & thinner. but it looks sexy! 😛

    Straight to the point

    Pros:

    • wireless access 24/7 to your storage people! this is soo cool! Im backing up my mac & vista wirelessly!
    • i connected it with my Zain router, so now it acts as my storage PLUS internet. The fact that its Wireless N is making it a very good access point.
    • Its Sexy! its an apple product! yes im considering apple a plus!

      Cons:

      • Syncing. It takes ages to sync wirelessly. backing up my MBP took around 8-10 Hours.

        The 500GB costs KD80 & the 1TB costs KD133.

        I give it a 4 Out of 5.

villa_moda_manshar.jpg

Today me & my wife decided to go to Villa Moda Al-Manshar which is located in Al-Manshar mall in Fahaheel.

villa_moda_manshar1.jpg

Its located at the end of the mall which is near Rotana Hotel.

villa_moda_manshar2.jpg

Once i got in i grabbed my camera and started taking pictures. But suddenly they came to me and asked me to turn it off! So, all the pics below are spy pics 😛 Sorry if they are not clear enough 😛

villa_moda_manshar4.jpg

There is a flower section for a shop called Cozy Corner at the entrance.

villa_moda_manshar5.jpg

If you can see above, basically the place consists of circles and each circle got its own brand. One of the circles is for DIGITS shop (its an apple computer shop).

villa_moda_manshar6.jpg

The shop also got a second floor which is also for ladies! 🙁

villa_moda_manshar7.jpg

There is a cafe too!

I just want to mention that this branch seems to be a little bit different from the other branches, it doesn’t have the major brands such as Gucci, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada or even Marni. But it’s worth going.

gulf_bank_knet.jpg

When I first got married, about a year ago, I went to the Gulf Bank and asked them about getting an extra card for my K-Net account so that i can give it to my wife just in case anything happens. Their answer was NO! its not possible. I even took it the to the branch manager there and asked him, his answer was “even if I accept ur request the system will auto refuse and cancel it!”

I went back home and forgot about it. After a few months i noticed that my Card’s letters & number were unidentifiable so i decided to go to the bank and ask them to get a new card. They wanted me to give them the old one so they can proceed with the request, I suggested that I keep mine until I get the new one.

Anyway, they agreed. After a few days they called and told me to come and collect my new card, so, I went there to get it…. they did NOT ask about my old one…. Aaaaaand Guess what!?!? BOTH cards now are working! So much for the system auto refusing my card!!!
