who goes to katara for 3 days to get free gifts for their kids. Its alright if you went there to have good time but just to get the free gifts 3 times?
It's a great disappoint for my valuable time and kids dissatisfaction. Tried 3 days for drive through gifts in different timings 5:30,6:60,7:30. Always same answer from security "Qallas and come tomorrow". Finally I decided to buy nice gifts for my kids instead of wasting time. I know this comment will not be approved by QL. Just for your information...
