Hi Everyone / 大家好,
I was so happy with my purchase today I had to share with everyone. We have moved house the week before COVID19 lockdown in Sydney so since then I haven’t really been able to purchase new bowls and plates for the new place as we have used the old ones for nearly 10 years. On a rare occasion we went out for lunch today due to last minute change of plans, I walked past a homeware store selling some stock at a huge discount. Due to the slow economy, stores are basically selling things at low prices to attract people into their stores.
在疫情剛剛開始之前我們搬新家但因為之後不可以常常出街所以到現在都沒有買到新廚房用品.現時還用10年前買落的東西但今天終於找到一些新碗碟. 現時很多商店都做減價希望可以吸引多一些人流到商場購物.
I have been looking for rice bowls for so long. I am not prepared to pay $5+ for each bowl especially I need to buy at least 8 of them. I so these pretty flower style ones on discount! They also had matching cups, plates and smaller snack bowls. They had two designs so I bought the last two of the pink based ones and 6 of the blue ones. They were the perfect ones as I prefer to have my bowls with a lighter colour in the middle and patterns on the outside.
在網上本地商店裡很難找到我想要的東西但今天終於找到一些而且價錢非常合理. 沒有減價普通飯碗要 $5 或以上澳幣一隻,我要買最少八隻所以加上其他配套比我預期的價錢有些距離.今天找到這間店做 70% 減價. 這批碗碟有兩種顏色,我買了最後兩隻粉紅色碗之後就買六隻藍色飯碗湊夠八隻.
I also bought 8 matching plates and small bowls so there were 24 pieces altogether. I was hoping they had some noodle and serving bowls but unfortunately this range only had a few products. It’s so pretty and such a great buy! If I had to pay for it full price (which I wouldn’t), it would be approximately $200 but I only spent $53 for all 24 pieces! I really can’t complain and consider this a great bargain!
之後我買了八隻碟來配這些飯碗再加八隻迷你碗總共 24 樣東西.最完美配搭就要買湯碗但因為這個系列沒有就沒有辦法. 原價要 $200以上澳幣但今天只是用了$53 就買齊 24 樣東西.今次用 1/4 的價錢買到我啱心水的碗碟非常開心.

Love the flower designs -- very Chinese looking :)
I do love buying a whole set of crockery myself too.. that's why I love IKEA when I'm back in Malaysia.
In Vietnam, some wholesale markets do sell a whole set like the ones you have.. but way more traditional designs and very affordable too.
