To the 'Jamuna Future Park' and some Market Friday stories.
I wasted a whole day there.
Or should I call it a waste?
Maybe not.
Because I bought something but not what I was looking for. So the fulfilling feeling was absent but the day was not that bad.
We did some shopping, had our lunch on the food court, my son had playtime, what else do I need?
It felt unfulfilling, maybe, because I was looking for something special; shoes or a wristwatch for my husband. His birthday is coming. But no, nothing seems perfect. Either I didn't like it or the price was too high. Maybe I need to take another round to the mall to find a perfect gift.
Anyway...
Let me share my day.
We went there around 11.00 am and came back home in the afternoon. Nope, not what you are thinking. In the meantime, there was almost two hours play break for my son.
We found an amazing restaurant with a gorgeous play zone, they had many rides and toys there, so it was an enjoyable time out there. We also took our lunch there.
Before that, we bought two pairs of shoes from Apex, up to 50% sale is going on. So we grabbed the opportunity.
We were waiting at the restaurant for our food with our shopping bag.
I had to buy a mobile cover for my new handset. But unfortunately, I didn't find what I was looking for and ended up deciding to buy something online.
My husband and my son were at the restaurant and I was roaming around to browse some more products. Also, I went to the TimeZone to see some watch collections. One watch costs around $500 grabbed my attention. But that's too much.
Also, no shoes around under $100 seemed nice, maybe I was too choosy. But I know I had to choose something before 26th!
Fortunately, we found a clothing store and there my husband choose a jeans pant. I paid for it, but it doesn't seem like a birthday gift though.
The shop name is Range, it's newly opened, here's their FB page link
This catches my attention. Loved this wall of quotes in the shop.
And guess what!
The Christmas decoration is still on and I loved it.
So that was the day.
It took me almost three hours on the street to go and come back from the mall because of the traffic. So I wish I could buy something more of my desired products so the day doesn't feel wasted.
I hate being in traffic.
Anyway, maybe I have to take another round there. Will see you in next Market Friday!
Hope that you will get the perfect gift before the deadline.

Nice photography and I go to Jamuna Future Park several times for shopping.
That's great. Thanks for your appreciation.
Though i haven't never been in jamuna future park yet,but i will go there soon.
Maybe in all shopping malls there is a Christmas tree nowadays
Yes, the trees are not down yet.
Good to hear that you have a plan to shop there. :)
It is obvious that you love your husband very much, and sometimes a traditional gift isn't needed. Making a special dinner, serving it first class, dessert and so many other little fun things you could do.
I no longer buy gifts for people that don't really need something. It is too difficult, banging my head. :) I have started buying things that I see that are just perfect! instead of waiting.
In saying all this, I had such a fun day with you and you did get two pairs of shoes! it was a total win! And three hours of time. Thank you for being part of #MarketFriday!
#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through by their markets, especially local markets and farmers markets and eventually branching out and evolving over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact of what is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience. I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.

As always, please remember! #MarketFriday loves you!

That's what I ended up choosing. Today is his birthday and I'm making a special dinner and all. No special gift for now, maybe later. We celebrated with a cake last night (local time 😅) and it felt nice.
Yeah, traffic is really worse in Dhaka. That's why I prefer to stay in my locality rather going to the huge malls.
Thanks for market Friday. And sorry for the late reply, I was too busy at my kitchen preparing the birthday meal 😁😁
