Table hunting

Went table hunting with Diane before going home. She’s got a new Mac Book Pro and her old desk just won’t cut it. Earlier today, I searched the web for possible places where we could buy Diane’s desk because last month, when I was table hunting myself, the SM-Parksquare-Glorietta area proved to be poor hunting grounds. My search did not provide satisfactory results.

Three weeks ago, Diane saw cheap tables at the supermarket in SM Marikina, so we initally visited the SM Makati supermarket. After a brief survey of the area, we decided to ask a guard, who , eventually directed us to go to the 4th floor.

On to the furniture section.

After about 8 minutes of comparison, Diane decided to get a PVC-laminated desk (she calls it “faker kahoy”)  priced at P2,999.00. Remembering the difficulty I had last month when I discovered the the instructions included by the manufacturer in the table I bought was for an entirely different model, I asked Furnline (I swear, that’s how he introduced himself to us), the guy who assisted us, whether or not they could assemble the table already and whether it will fit the back area of Diane’s Montero.

Long story short, we got the table and I just learned that Parksquare 1 has 8 levels!
