Random haul from the City

I dont go to Melbourne CBD very often.  Maybe once or twice a year.

I had a mission in mind - to hunt down some physical AB Shops that had been listed in the AB and Australian Makeup Reddit forums.  Just to see what the prices were like compared to the online stores.

Walking past Haighs (one of the other missions of the day...) a few shops up I spied some sheet mask packets from the corner of my eye.  Wandered over into the shops - I initally thought it was an Asian Grocer because there were boxes of food and such.
There was a small section of the aisle that had Mamonde and Sexy Look masks so I was stoked to see them and picked up a few.  Went down the aisle and up the next one and realised that this was an AB store!  It had a range of products that I had eyeballed online and new some of the prices.
Some prices were quite comparable to online and shipping together.  Some I'm not sure of.  More research required.

THEN I went to the back of the shop where there was an aisle FULL OF SHEET MASKS.

SHEET MASK HEAVEN.






I was able to read the ingredients and make a choice easily - unlike online where I have to google the ingredients or hope for the best.
Most prices were quite reasonable as well! So nice to buy things and have them immediately and not have to wait 3 weeks or more and not have to convert the US$ to AUS$.

So a little haul.  Made even better by its randomness!  This will encourage me to go into the city again because I know where this is easily and found the other shop as well (did not have time to browse there fully).
With a list...

What random hauls have made your day recently?
