[Event] Splashtopia @ Palawan Green + Shopping at VivoCity


Splashtopia was back from 7 to 31 March and was held at Palawan Green, Sentosa with a Pirate themed. Thanks Pink for arranging this outing for the girls to go play and have fun. We went for the earliest session to avoid the crowd and we took a cab down. 


We arrived slightly too early and the admission hadn't started yet. I was also quite worried as dark clouds were hovering in the sky and it felt like it would rain heavily anytime soon. 


Some photos and videos I took during the first part, after a while I kept my phone and just joined in to play with them. This round, my girl was still unwilling to try the long slide. Hopefully, next time she have the courage to do it. 


About one hour before our session ends, it started to rain so we went into the tentage area to rest and redeemed some freebies. 


I'm a Sentosa Islander member and got to redeem a S$5 Splashtopia voucher when I logged into the app. The staff were also going around to inform and guide us on how to redeem the voucher too. I used it to buy lunch for my girl. The rain didn't seem like it would stop anytime soon, so after eating we left Sentosa. 

----------------------------


We went grocery shopping at FairPrice Xtra, VivoCity while waiting for hubby to join us for dinner. Shopping with hubby takes about 5 minutes but shopping with my girl takes hours. Yes, we spent hours just inside FairPrice Xtra. We also came across the M&M roadshow, which was perfect since I wanted to buy some chocolates for my girl's birthday goodie bags. We redeemed 2 tokens for the claw machine and won a $5 NTUC voucher. We also bought some other chocolate which later I won a prize from the contest too. We had dinner at Belle Ville Pancake & Coffee before heading home. It was one of the weekends where we were out from morning to night.

[PERSONAL] Shopping on Qoo10 and Taka Baby Fair

With less than a month to go, I had been doing some last minute shopping as well as packing up for the arrival of my precious baby Rena. This post is just to share some of the essential items I bought online on Qoo10 as well as during the Taka Baby Fair.

MATERNITY UNDERWEAR - QOO10


The seller is really nice to pack my order nicely in a zip-lock bag with a return policy card and the material is soft and comfortable. Most importantly, it's a one size that fits all stages of pregnancy. Thumbs up for this. Bought them at 3 for $8 excluding shipping fee. Will buy them again.


Comfortable and nice packaging

So far, this seller has received quite a lot of positive feedbacks too. For those interested in this item, do check out Happy Maternity at: http://www.qoo10.sg/gmkt.inc/Goods/goods.aspx?goodscode=420854204&sAffiliate=Q101704881 

SPECTRA S9+ PLUS DOUBLE PORTABLE ELECTRIC BREAST PUMP - QOO10


I did some research and finally found this which has the lowest price on Qoo10. The only downside is that since it's couriered over from Korea, all the wordings are in Korean and there's no local warranty. The other point is that the flange size of 28mm is too big for Asian so might have to buy spare parts. Didn't know all these until bestie Lis told me. Do you know there's so many different types of breast pump, you can choose either manual/electric, single/double/hands-free and so many different brands. For me, since I think I would be going out a lot so I choose a portable one which is easier to bring around.

With its sleek design and powerful double electric breast pump, the Spectra S9+ is build for convenience with inbuilt rechargeable battery. The design is much smaller compared to hospital grade breast pump so it's not suitable for heavy use. Due to the close system, this breast pump can be used by multiple women safely and hygienically. Expressing from both breasts together also means saving valuable time especially during work or on-the-go. Sterilize all the parts other than the tubing and membrane. Bought this at $104.90 + Shipping of $9.90.

PHILIPS AVENT BUNDLE SET - TAKA BABY FAIR


Lis informed me of this Taka Baby Fair and I planned to go there alone to buy the Sterilizer. So glad to bump into her and her family there too and they gladly accompanied me to shop. If not I would be so lost as usual and this is quite heavy even to bring to the counter. Thanks Jason for helping me to carry. Luckily, there's free shipping available too, so I don't have to carry all these home by myself and I ended up buying a lot of other things too. Bought this Philips Avent bundle set for $149 (after a $30 further discount) and it consist of the following items.


I think it's quite a good deal as I really need the sterilizer and the warmer. Was told that breast milk cannot be heat up using boiling water, thus would need a warmer to do the job.

BABY MATTRESS - TAKA BABY FAIR

Bought this baby mattress at $26.90 to put on top of the play pen as I'm not so sure if baby like to sleep on the plastic type of material of the play pen. Didn't get the measurement and just bought on impulse, luckily it fits.

PIGEON DETERGENT AND LIQUID CLEANSER - TAKA BABY FAIR


 Was told that baby's skin is very sensitive thus cannot even wash their laundry together with the adults laundry and must use special type of detergent. Same goes for washing their accessories. New-age babies, the old folks would definitely say why need to be so particular? Last time babies also like that survive one what? Well, for the sake of my baby, I think this type of money have to be spent.

Even after I bought all these, there's still seems to be so much items on my shopping list. Gosh. Hope I can get everything ready in time.

[PERSONAL] Clothes Donation at Dressabelle + Clothes Swapping at 313 Somerset

Forced myself to pack my clothes over the weekend due to the two initiatives by DRESSABELLE and 313 Somerset that can give my pre-loved clothing new owners. I have two wardrobe of clothes and some bags of unsorted clothes, all of those are either bought by me or given to me by my friends when they are clearing their wardrobe. I really appreciate cause some of the clothes I received really looks nice and fits me well. Feeling grateful for the kind thoughts of them wanting me to look better.


That's me at Dressabelle, Centrepoint outlet trying out the dresses after my donation. This was taken on Saturday. In the end, I didn't buy this two dresses that I've tried on. 


I first get to know of this wonderful initiative by DRESSABELLE thanks to the FaceBook posting by Que Origin as they were one of the sponsors. 


Racks of dresses at Dressabelle, Centrepoint. Learnt that there's a lot more at their Playfair outlet from an Instagram friend. 


The dress I bought in the end. Usual price cost S$25, after utilizing the $15 voucher, this only cost S$10! So happy for this best buy. 


On Sunday, I came back again with Meryl. I didn't buy anything so only she bought. 


Message behind the discount card. I hope that there will be more of such nice initiate that we can participate. On one hand, we can do our part to give back to society by donating our pre-loved clothes, they can get some business too when we buy new dresses with the vouchers. So it's basically a win-win situation. 


My other bag of clothes goes to the Green & Gorgeous Fashion Swap by 313 Somerset. Today is only the dropped off day and they are really strict in examining the clothes brought to them. A little dot of stain will not get clearance. This is to ensure that during the swap on 19th March, others are getting quality clothes. However, I felt that the quality of clothes can be really subjective. 


Went shopping with Meryl at Metro and they are currently having a membership drive so with our purchase we both become Metro Lifetime Members. Lol.


Dinner was at 49 Seats with Meryl, tried their Tom Yum Pasta. Sauce too thick for my liking but innovative.


And then we had Gong Cha before I left to meet one of the Instagram winner. Really thankful for staying out late with me until the winner is ready to meet.


Ending my post with this quote spotted at Metro.

Don't wait for the perfect moment. 
Take the moment and make it perfect.

[Media Invite] Celebrate Audio House's 26th Anniversary With $26 OFF Every $100 Spent

Good news to share! 
Audio House is celebrating their 26th anniversary by offering customers the Best Promotions ever from now till 7 December 2015! 

(First sales period: 24th Oct to 2nd Nov)
(Second sales period: 3rd Nov to 7th Dec)


Here's what you can expect:
  • Audio House is the first to offer lowest price-guaranteed strategy and promised the best prices in Singapore by matching all competitors' prices. 
  •  With every S$100 worth of products purchased* in store during the birthday celebration period, Audio House will offer an additional S$26 rebate! i.e. With S$1,000 spent, customers will enjoy a rebate of S$260!


The rebates will be given in the form of Audio House vouchers valued at S$26 each. Each S$26 voucher can then be used for every S$100 spent on the following purchases. *Do check with the sales staff on which brands of products are participating in the promotions


I had the opportunity to visit the Audio House at Liang Court for the Media preview of this great promotions and I must say I was spoilt for choices as to what to buy. It suddenly seems like my house needs so many things. Lol.   


Check out the longest Ultra High Definition (UHD) TV wall in Singapore! Audio House is definitely one electronics MEGA store that has one of the widest arrays of UHF TVs on display as well as the widest selection of sound rooms under one roof. All of these comes with the best price tag in town!

Please note all FINAL PRICES are written on the yellow stickers pasted beside the original price tag so it's easier to compare and this gets us all very excited after finding out how much the price was being slashed. 


MAYER AIR FRYER for less than S$100! 
So cheap as compared to the original S$299! OMG, I've been wanting to get an air fryer cause it's so convenient, there's a tagline by those who used it that goes "air fry everything". Cooking without using oil and taste just as good. So amazing! However, this brand didn't participate in the accumulation of S$100 to get the S$26 vouchers, BUT the S$26 vouchers can be used to offset it. Thus, I think I will only get it during my second visit when I utilize my S$26 voucher. Hopefully, they still have stock when I go back again. The red one was a last piece! 


Irons that costs for less than S$50!
And this Panasonic Pink Iron is only S$29.90! Was joking with my friends about the colour that I should get if I'm buying. If I were to buy the pink one, ironing clothes would definitely be on my household to-do-list cause my other half could say pink is for female? So they asked me to get a more unisex colour, like orange or purple but I still prefer the pink one! Haha.


Air Purifiers for S$200 and Below! 
Demand for air purifiers are on the rise with the hazy weather.


High quality blenders for less than S$150!
This is what Meryl and I bought. PHILIPS stainless steel blender for S$139. Yay. Quite excited because I've never used a blender before. It's easier to just buy fruit juice at the market. Not even those simple press down type.  Can't wait to try it out. Healthy fruit juices and smoothies awaits! 



Beside the household electronic appliances, there's also beauty appliances like hair straightener, curler, cameras etc. My friends and I enjoying our shopping trips. Everyone of us bought something we wanted back and received the S$26 vouchers to be used for our second shopping trip! 



All deals are on a first-come, first-served basis, and purchases are limited to one set per customer. Have to be quick otherwise the items you want may be sold out soon! 


With such a wonderful promotions going on, it's really a great time to give your house some new appliances before the year ends.
