It is inevitable that you will run across random items that might pique your fancy in Hong Kong. More often than not, for me at least, these items are things that I covet yet have absolutely no use for. Such as the above. What on earth would I do with a ceramic water cooler shaped like a bunny or cat? It’s not even one of those Maneki Neko cats (the ones that are suppose to bring luck by beckoning passer-bys), although it does look like one unless maybe both its paws are beckoning? In which case, I guess people can buy it and use it as a dual purpose Maneki Neko/water cooler? But then where would you put the coins? See how I’m spending way more time than I should pondering the uses of something that I actually don’t have a use for? This is something that happens on a regular basis for Fashion Geek. So I figure I should post about them in case others feel the need to purchase this. And hey, maybe I will find like-minded people who will turn my attention to other similar items and one day I would find something that I could purchase and have a use for.
