1,000L.L DVDs in Beirut

November 11th, 2011 14 comments

I though I should share with you guys where I get my DVDs from after someone commented on the previous post that he never found them for less than 3,000L.L.

The place I go to is called “Serge” in Bourj Hammoud. Going from Achrafieh to Bouchrieh using the Yerevan bridge, you take the first exit on the bride, and you’ll find that DVD shop in a very narrow street to your right, situated just before the end of that exit. Serge’s collection is always up to date with a back room dedicated for old movies, and the best thing is that he’s always honest about the audio/video quality of any movie you’re buying.

I also heard there’s another place in Bourj Hammoud called “Rony” but I never knew where that one is…

5 Things you can buy for 5,000L.L.

Although the new price lists for gasoline were effective as of yesterday, almost all gas stations didn’t start to sell at the new reduced prices until today!

Anyway, here’s a list of 5 things we can now buy for the 5,000 L.L we’ll be saving on every 20 liters :D (though I’m confident they’ll soon be increasing the prices again):

  1. 20 Bonjus pyramids OR Ghandour’s Tarboush
  2. 2 Beef burgers from McDonalds (You know the ones with only ketchup, a slice of pickle, and beef patty, I love them!)
  3. A big fat Tawouk sandwich from Malek Al Tawouk
  4. 5 rides on a public bus
  5. 5 DVD’s from Bourj Hammoud

What else?

And here’s the second round of the Christmas decoration shooting. The following photos were taken on Sunday night at Sassine Square Achrafiyeh.

I was on my way back home from Antelias last night when I decided to take photos of the Christmas decorations I encounter on the road, so I got you these photos while passing by Zalka, Bourj Hammoud, and Downtown Beirut.

On my to-shoot list, I still have Jdeideh street, the Ice creche at ABC, the other decorations at downtown and whatever I may encounter in the coming days!
