NSW: Jamberoo Adventure!


Jamberoo is a Water theme park located in “1215 Jamberoo Road, Jamberoo NSW 2533”. For more information about the park you can visit their website (http://www.jamberoo.net). This action park was my first tourist destination here in Sydney. My cousin, with her friends, had planned to go here as an end of summer outing. Since I’ve just arrived in Sydney at that time, they decided to take me with them. The only thing that I can remember is that “It’s really cold!” (Even thought they said that its still summer). Hey! I grew up in a country where 20 degree is considered cold. I experience all the rides except the “Giant Mammoth River” and “Tantrum Alley” because the queue is really long and the park closes at 5:30 in the afternoon. If you want to ride them all, be sure to come at opening time! ^_^

Clothescheap.com Review

NOTE: I’m not new with this entire online shopping thing. I’ve had various transactions purchasing things like clothes, accessories, toys, collectibles and etc. However, for my transaction on this site, I needed to spend a few days to think things out. (this is not a sponsored post, I just decided to do one for this site) =D

Whenever I search for online shops who sells Asian Clothes, the website clothescheap.com always comes out as the number one result from the search engines. Being the ever-curious girl that I am, I decided to browse their site and see what they offer. Some of their clothes got my attention and I must admit that their price is really cheap. So after days of contemplating about it, I decided to order a few things to see how this site performs.

Price is a big factor for my decision. clothescheap.com offer their products at a very cheap price (as in REALLY CHEAP). You can buy dresses for as low as $4.50 and jackets at around $9.00.
Another thing that I like is that they offer LOTS of design for their clothes. These are the type of clothes that I always see whenever I watch Asian Shows. Cute dresses, comfortable T’s, Jeggings (Jeans+ Leggings) and really eye catching accessories.

The quality of the clothes is ok. I think it depends on what product you bought. It just so happens that so far, the things that I ordered really looked like what was on the pictures and description (I’ve watched some reviews in YouTube and read some online and was some kind of a mixed reaction. Some say their clothes is not that good and some says that they are great.).
Size was a little tricky. I understand that Asian were in a much smaller body structure that others. So I guest this is where the comments about “clothes being too small” came from? In my case, I needed to look at the measurement chart for every clothes that I wanted to buy because I didn’t want the trouble of experiencing “clothes too small or too big”. 

Shipping fee was a little expensive. I really don’t understand their computation but I think it cost around $39 for a 3kg parcel (Oh! And I don’t know why but for some reason normal shipping is much more expensive than the Express Shipping one. Weird!). Because I opted for express shipping, shipping time is really short. It took around 4 working days for the parcel to be delivered at our doorstep.  Another thing that I experience was stock run out. I wanted a shirt and when I ordered and paid for it, it was still available, but the following day they sent me a message stating that that shirt is “out of stock” and that I should update my purchase list. They offered two choices, (1) choose another item or (2) have the money credited to my clothescheap account; which I can use for my next transaction (No Refund choice?). So I opted for the first choice.


So yah! That’s my over-all experience for ordering on clothescheap.com. I’ll be posting some pictures to show some of the things that I ordered. Till next time! Ciou! ^_^
