You'll just need to pay USD99 for 7 nights accomodations (excluding air tickets) from any countries you choose from. The range is as wide as 4000+ worldwide states. It ensure you good services, good quality hotels/resorts/suites/villas (we're talking about those with private jacuzzi/pool) - Is this deal too good to be true?? Let me throw you an even better deal! SGD13,000 for 30yrs membership entitles you to a yearly holiday for 4pax, over 4000+ countries & states, suites to choose from, absolutely your call. Interested?? Please do let me know, and I can recommend you to this club!
I can't believe I actually sit in 2+ hours to listen to what the club can offer! OMG! Another clever, well-strategic marketing company out there with their fabulous business gimmicks!Should I use the word "scam"? I believe it would be if I had paid up and joined, but now going to reserve it. We were walking down towards HMV entrance when we noticed there's this young gal approaching us with a stack of "papers" on a hard support. I signalled her with a "no" (I was thinking - not another of this bo-liao questionaire / surveys), spare us. But she make her step towards us still, my bf is kind enough to take the pen from her and starts ticking off the survey. I was peeling off the 2 "lucky dip cards" given, 1 was nothing but the other 1 got the gal and the rest of her PT "colleagues" so excited, which left us in a daze, not knowing what's happening at ALL. Once she resumed back her calmness, she explained to us that we actually won the top prize (only 5 sets) - a FREE 7 nights accomodation stay @ 9 countries to choose from. We were least excited or interested at all (aiya, it's another of those gimmick), but it's the other part of me thinking, what if it's really true, and that Lady Luck finally shines on us?
We'll have to sit through a 80mins presentation before we're entitled to our winning voucher, and that gal will also earn $100 for herself. Well, we got the time, why not. (perhaps to give the "winning" a benefit of doubt) We followed the gal up, looking normally. She looked puzzled and asked "why aren't you two excited, thrilled at all? You both are so lucky to won the rare prize!?" Perhaps, I'll be feeling and asking the same if I were her age. 15yrs old, what can she know? Or how would she know not all things are as simple as how it look to be. We entered into a beautifully renovated reception office, there were other "us" sitting down too. I will give it a 8 / 10 for their exclusive brilliant marketing package way to attract strangers to be convinced. Nevertheless, we started our 80mins "talk" with this small built malay guy. Bet our not-interested facial expression gave us both away, he asked "hi, may I ask what do you both think about this travel club?" I replied without a single thought "Skeptical perhaps." He asked bluntly "about ? and now?"
"Ha, more or less confirmed.." - i replied. He was pissed with what I said, carried on with "maybe you might want to tell me more about what did you confirm??" My bf brushed his knee against me, got his signal (-it's enough) and I said "oh.. nothing" Anyway my bf did time the talk and wanted to leave at the 80mins, but he decided to stay till that guy finish his talk & explanation of the fantastic, too-good-to-be-true membership, when the guy pissed him off. He wanted him to feel the agony, frustration to have wasted 2hrs to have nothing in return. And HE DID! That guy LOST it totally. When we finally got up and left after their last attempt in throwing in a trial package for $2500 - 2 immediate FREE reservations 7 nights accomodation stay for 4pax for a validality of 3 years (i was tempted, too good a deal), he never even smiled nor bid goodbye. What a man...
C'mon, if there's such good deal under the sky, everyone will be grabbing for it! Too good to give it a miss, but come to think about it, no wonder they can have such nice offices, and they own 4 levels in UOB Building @ Orchard !! Unbelievable! Wonder when anyone falls for it? I bet.
Oh and guess what, it's our anniversary! Owe u this :
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, DEAREST =)
