At some shopping malls in Hong Kong, you can often get a discount or a full redemption for your parking fee if you spend money at the mall. Us Hong Kongers love this, because in such a tiny city where space is so precious, parking can be quite costly!I drove my dad to lunch today, and while we were there, he ran into a good friend, who eventually joined us for lunch. We had a good chat, and it was quite interesting listening to the two go back and forth with juicy stories from the past. When it was time to go, we only got one receipt that could be used to redeem one parking ticket. And without further thought, I of course handed it over to "uncle". It wasn't every day that we got to see him!
