Don't leave home without your Binoculars

There are certain items which are good to have when they're needed, otherwise they would fall under what we would term 'nice to have' buys. I discovered I do have a pair of binoculars which I should have brought along on that trip to KL Bird Park last year.

If you haven't been to the KL Bird Park, you're missing a beautiful part of Kuala Lumpur. Malaysians pay an admission rate of RM20 but if you have certain membership cards, you can get up to 50% discount. Any one of these cards will accord you a discount, though in various quantums:

1. J Card from Jaya Jusco
2. MetroJaya Privilege card
3. International Student Identity card
4. RealRewards Privilege card
5. MBf card
6. Hop-On Hop-Off ticket

I had a funny episode with a peacock but that's for another day..
