I bought 2 men's shirts for only $148 at Lacoste Changi Airport. 

Each shirt had a discounted price of S$ 92.50 plus an additional 20% when you reach S$150.

^Wala TJ peanut butter dito sis. Yung isang brand meron pero malayo sa city or tourist spots. Isang store lang sya.

[yapeegurl]

betsyness, regarding Tiffany. You can check the prices here for reference:

Regarding lalas: Meron sa TRU. Pero ang konti ng selection. Mini Lalas nila are $12.90. The bigger ones are $44.90.

mga sis, anong mas ok, yung Singapore Flyer or yung Marina Bay Sand Skypark? Ok din ba ang Gardens by the Bay? Ang mamahal kasi pag lahat ginawa namin, kaya i was looking for the one worth going to. (except for USS, Sentosa and Singapore Zoo). TIA!

[bagaholic_chewy]

^ sis, yung Gardens by the Bay, pwede ka na di magbayad ng entrance, free naman maglakad-lakad sa park lang mismo. Bayad ka lang if gusto mo pumasok/umakyat sa mga attractions nila.

Personally, i think better ang SG Flyer vs Skypark, for experience. Gusto ko lang kasi mapicturan ang infinity pool nila kaya kami umakyat before. Sandali lang din kami sa Skypark.

[Cari]

Di po ba talaga worth it ang Gardens by the Bay (cloud forest at flower dome)? Songs of the sea?

[Cari]

Yung Changi City Point malapit po sa Ikea?

[bratty]

^sis 2 ang branch ng ikea, isa sa tampines at alexandra. yung tampines branch at changi city point, medyo malapit. yung alexandra branch naman, anchor point ang malapit sa kanya.

[Cari]

Ay sorry nalito na ako sa changi city point at anchor point hehe..pero ano po ba ang mas malapit sa kanila?! Hehehhe

[bratty]

Sis Cari, malapit saan? Ang Tampines, malapit sa airport. Yung Alexandra, medyo malapit sa city.

Kung hindi ka mahilig sa flowers, hindi siya sulit. Or siguro kung into photography ka, sulit din siya. Malamig sa Cloud Forest Foggy ang effect.

Songs of the sea, worth the try naman. May story kasi siya. Meron parts na boring..

[Cari]

Salamat sis.

Sa Lavander MRT kasi malapit ang hotel namin..so, sa anchor point na lang kami na IKEA?

[bratty]

Ahmm.. Pano po ba ang flow ng paglilibot nyo? Pero mukha nga sa Alexandra na lang kayo, kasi pag sa Tampines, wala naman iba makikita dun (sa pagkaka-alam ko). Pag sa Alexandra, after ng Ikea, tawid lang kayo, Anchor point na. Tapos may mga buses na dun pa-Orchard. Eto sis ay suggestion ko lang ha. Di din kasi ako masyado gala at hindi din ako taga-city. hehe

[xtine]

Salamat sis.

Sis.  I suggest you always look at Gothere.sg.  Nag search ako ng "Lavander MRT to Ikea alexandra" lumabas yung Train + bus na sasakyan mo.  Always use Gothere.sg kasi kahit sa pagsagot namin ng queries, we also look at that website lalo na yung hindi kabisado ang bus na sasakyan.  Also, to confirm our sisses recommendation, its better to go to IKEA Alexandra as lavander is almost within the city.  Lalayo ka pa kung sa Tampines ka which is dulo na ng east part of singapore.  The tourist spots as well as the shopping places are in the center of SG.

[GirlCrush]

^May I add lang... gothere.sg OR pwede rin naman i-google ang ibang infos

mga sis, anong mas ok, yung Singapore Flyer or yung Marina Bay Sand Skypark? Ok din ba ang Gardens by the Bay? Ang mamahal kasi pag lahat ginawa namin, kaya i was looking for the one worth going to. (except for USS, Sentosa and Singapore Zoo). TIA!

Depends on what you like but I usually recommend Skypark because there's no time limit unlike with flyer You will enjoy Gardens by the Bay IF you like seeing flora and fauna. Right now they have this tulip mania at GBTB. Very pretty But you will appreciate the place only I think if you like this kind of stuff

[xtine]

^For me, kung minsan lang kayo mag SG, i highly suggest you visit gardens by the bay.  Its really worth your money.  Visit ourawesomeplanet (blog bu anton diaz), he has an entry on gardens by the bay.  And based on what you see on the blog, judge whether its in your liking or not.

Hi sisses, is this reasonable price na ba for YMCA's superior room - S$183.61 (1st night) and S$204.80 (2nd & 3rd night)? We're actually 3 adults so included na dyan yung extra bed plus other charges. Ok ba yung superior room nila for 3. Super recommended kasi YMCA dito sa GT kaya eto una kong in-inquire. Travel na namin this June, 3rd week.
