Mini Jewellery Shopping
I did a mini gold shopping today. Actually, my shopping for this month and many more months ends today. This past week has been a total bliss for me. I shopped each day of the week with my sister and my sister bought me all kinds of gifts I could get. She wanted to buy gold jewellery for me, but I refused. After she went back to her place, she called in to tell me that she had hidden money in my wardrobe for my jewellery and I could go shopping with that money. I was overjoyed and went straight to Joy Alukkas to buy a piece. I dumped “Malabar Gold” this time around, went to Joy Alukkas because they have a vast chain collection and I wanted a new chain badly. I went in to buy a chain, but got a bangle as well!
Bought a new chain to hang my mangalsutra in and a bangle for daily use.
Here’s the small loot :toothygrin:
A closer look at the chain, I wanted a wide one and this one seemed just fine, not too wide.
The bangle is a wide one as well, which I can wear as a single piece daily.
I joined the Easy Loan Scheme in Joy Alukkas as well. You have to pay a certain amount every month and at the end of the scheduled period, you can buy gold at the same rate when you joined the scheme, seemed quite cool to me.
Got these two purses as a gift, I was expecting more, but then, free pouches are welcome any day.
Hope you liked my small haul!!!

shows how happy ur holidays wer… :jalwa:
like the bangle.. ur hand seems to be small, the bangle looks small for my eyes..
Yes Akshatha…you are right, my hands are quite small…he he O:)
Everything glitters is Gold in this post.. :stars: Retail therapy can do miracles to us naa.. :pompom: Though am not Gold Person at all & now when its not safe to wear where I live..all I got in wedding frm both the sides is getting suffocated in lockers.. :methinks: Can I sell ’em in IMBB Bazar.. :methinks: :toothygrin:
Err… why would we buy lockers? 😐
Shilpa….majority of my jewellery is in locker too, but I have to wear a few pieces randomly because I can’t wear artificial ones coz I am allergic too, but I agree some places are very safe to wear and some places are not :toothygrin:
Truely Jomol..If we Indians dun have 1/2 totally filled up lockers..laanat hai humari Indian-iyat par.. :toothygrin: & 🙁 @ allergy..I do have such frnd..& shes huge fan of Junk Jewellery so she has to settle for plastic/cloth/wood…anything but metal..!!
ejjactly same allergy hain moozko Shilpa, I buy junk jewellery too, but cannot wear them. I can wear gold only without any issue :blush: :teddy:
So we can hal-karo-masla by xchange of Gold-Junk between us. Ratio wuld be 1 Gold Piece = 349875623.37 Junk Pieces…theek rahega ?! :toothygrin: *Offering hand in anticipation of sigining deal* :stars:
Shilpa….main gold deti hoon….aap mooze aaj ke gold rate ke hissab se paisa de do…nothing extra O:) O:) O:) O:)
Mennu dena hai Gold or lena hai Junk…as My Gold & Your Junk are lying unutilised naa. You said naa..You buy it but dun use it.. O:)
I will give you my junk ones free….take it…waishe bhi sab 10 rupees, 20 rupees ka plastic pieces hai :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
Tabhi to wo ratio rakha naa..but now when you are giving me all in phree phree..seems you too are generous like your sistah (On a serious note..its really suppa-cute-gesture frm her side.. 🙂 ) So all I have to do is to give you my addy where you can courier ’em…Done :high5:
:methinks: :chewnails: :specs: :jalwa: :methinks:
Awww…This reply was for Mr.Sanjeev 🙂
Shilpa , if you don’t want to keep it lockers, you can go to Joy Alukkas or malabar gold and if your gold is 916, they will payyou the entire money for that day’s rate….phir you can save that money in the bank…..yeh accha idea hai to rescue your gold from the suffocation of lockers O:) O:) O:) O:) O:)
Even the shops in Ahmedabad frm where I bought have such schemes..just that labour cost is lost..!! But the way Gold prices are hiking..it seems better investment than in money in bank.. 🙂 Mera Stree-dhan..I might spend for face-lifts & botox shots & liposuctions..as & when needed.. :toothygrin:
Yesh, Pinaki, gold prices are on rise, I think its better this way. Waise bhi, only a small amount of money, I a m keeping apart monthly for this scheme. The only money I will have to pay would be for making charges and taxes at the end of the scheme
Our convo is becoming conference now…as Pinaki is my PPPP arthaat Param Pujya (?) Patidev Pinaki..Good that you are giving useful suggestion to him.. 😀 Ab jab unki baat nikli hai to (blush blush) it reminds me…I have already told him that if we were in India..har saal kuchh to kharidte..as shagun on Dhanteras…unka kitta saving ho gaya in our stay of 7 yrs outta India. So ab jab jaayeneg wapas…sut-samet lena hoga sab kuchh…in any way.. 😉
:stars: :stars:
suffocated in lockers..i liked it
Renji..I have coined up it..coz it din’t get to see daylight since ages…& it doesn’t have any ‘bright’ future either.. :toothygrin: Lagta hai meri aanewali bahu ko virasat me jaayega sab.. :present: Phir wo mere pair achche se dabaayegi.. 😉
even I did the same…Its safe in locker…
I think majority of all our gold is in lockers only…….my wedding jewellery is still lying there…… 😐 😐 😐 😐 😐 😐
like ur bangle.. vat a coincidence.. I too did jewellery shopping today.. bought gold rings and ear rings.. :happydance:
Laxmi…wow…I know it was good to buy gold today, it was only 26000 for 10 gms :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

Hi Jomol….both the chain and the bangle are really lovely. How sweet of your sister to surprise you like that. :)) :)) :))
Thankooooooo Sabrina, my sister knows me inside out and knows what I want. I got a lot of skin care items also from her as gifts :preen: :preen: :preen:

Hi Vidya, ende bangle 2 sovereign anu. I just use one single bangle a day, so this one looked to be worn alone. I have a scheme with malabar gold as well and yesterday, the gold prices were comparatively down, so it was a good day to shop too. You keep an eye on gold prices too like me :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:

For me mini haul is just a 2 gms of Gold Ring :tongue: :tongue: :tongue:
Anyways :)) i like your bangle, its the latest design na, even my mom has one like that
Yes Shami, Alukkas has lovely bangle collections. Malabar Gold is not renewing its collection. I went there two times to look for a bangle, but they kept showing me what I have already seen before. I got new designs in Alukkas :yahoo: :yahoo:
Joy Alukkas is the biggest jewelery shop here in chennai, i never bought jewlery from alukkas, but whenever i cross that building i was :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:
Next time i will go to Joy alukkas 🙂
There are three Alukkas’, jos, joy, and francis, I think Joy is the biggest….next time, do check that out :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
WI will make my sister read this :). Interestingly in the last few years I’ve got more interested in the non-mallu brands (I guess seeing all the alukkas, alappatts, malabar golds, bhimas and joscos in every corner does that to you) and non-mallu, less gold centric jewellery, so my last purchase was a pair of emerald earrings from Tanishq, and I love them! What other shopping did you do?
I am yet to go over to Tanishq…the huge making charges scare me off…..but I would opt for a ring if I can from Tanishq…. O:) O:) I shopped for just about everything Shai, shoes, clothes, bags, skin care stuff, etc.
I want emerald in my ring too :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo:
I have signed up for their golden harvest scheme – next target diamond earrings :). Yes making charges are high, and you will only get 50% back on the stone’s value, moreover it is 18 karat gold…but my this time I let my heart rule my head!!! The way I look at it I have enough (not a lot, but enough) solid gold, so…
Are you doing a haul post of the rest of the stuff?? Would love to see it!
My comment got cut off…i love the bangle and the chain is unusual 🙂
Thanks Shai…. O:)
Jomu..teddy: :teddy: :teddy: M so glad you are back..:yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: n dats a MINI haul?????…hoodi baba.. :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank:

Jomu me missed you dearly… :teddy: :teddy: :puchhi: :puchhi: :puchhi:
Dipti….thankooooo so much for misshing me……. :puchhi: :puchhi: :puchhi: :puchhi: :puchhi:
jomol i brought jewellry from kerala malbar gold and my dad bargained and even i got a diamond set from joy allukas in mumbai and bargained there also they reduced the price a bit nxt tym u go gold shoppin ask em 2 reduce on the making charges 😉 😉 😉 :haanji: :haanji: :haanji:
Hana, i know, you can just ask them to reduce the making charges a bit, but then you can’t go on yakking to reduce. I just ask once to make concessions in making charges and that’s about it. Usually, I am a regular at malabar gold, so they kind of know to give at appropriate rates…. :pompom: :pompom: :pompom: :pompom:
well they reduce alot in malabar cos ma dad a very persistent….u know the give it 2 me or al go 2 odr place kinda stuff so dey reduce alot even i was shocked :toothygrin: :toothygrin:
Hana….can I take your dad along next time I go to Malabar Gold, but they kind of take the correct charges for loyal and regular ones. I have been shopping from Malabar Gold throughout, so really no issue there…. :pompom: :pompom:
My sister goes all the way from Rajkot to Mumbai to buy gold from Jos Alukkas….you are in Mumbai Hana :woot: :woot: :woot: :woot:
