^Fastest way to Ikea Alexandra is via Taxi... Walang MRT doon. And this is sa west area rin kasi. Mas malapit if you'll be coming from CQ konti. pag bus expect mga 30-40minutes

[cindylulu]

^hmm that's what I thought while studying the train system map. mukha ngang mag ta taxi ako. thanks sis.

[GirlCrush]

^If you're feeling a bit adventurous, you can check gothere.sg to see which bus numbers you can take to Ikea Alexandra if ever..

^ thank you sis!

Super madaming tao ba talaga sa USS pag saturday? we're planning to go kasi ng saturday para makawatch ng parade. worried lang ako baka super dami tao baka hindi makapag rides ang 4yr   old ko.  Ilan rides lang naman actually kasi karamihan ata di pwede pa sa kanya ang rides dun. TIA!

^^^as long as it's not a holiday and hindi rin school holiday dito, bearable naman kahit papano

[crazy_krizsa]

Saturday will always be crowded. I prefer going on a Sunday, less people.

Why do you want to visit Ikea at Alexandra?
By the way, there is also Ikea at Tampines, near to Changi Airport.
Maybe it is better to stop by there on the way to the airport so you can just carry your items straight there and fly off, instead of having to carry the heavy things back to the hotel.

yes sis thanks for the advice. I'll think about it. there's an ikea in tampines and it's much bigger than the one in Alexandra. however, since I'm such an OC in planning and organizing my time, I don't want to feel harried and weary on my last day doing rush-shopping and re-organizing my luggage at the last minute. but you have a point here... 

[xtine]

^Sis, for me, you might buy some things in ikea that you need to put in your luggage or checked in and if so, i would suggest visiting the city branch which is in alexandra (SGD5 taxi away from Queenstown MRT) instead of the one in Tampi.  I do understand that its hard to pass by especially if you're on your way to the airport.  As a tourist, you don't want to be pressured to drive by Ikea with your luggages in tow. 

[GirlCrush]

^Same thoughts.

And if you'll be buying so much things if ever, you can always have it boxed at Lucky Plaza and send it to your address in the Philippines, you'll get it in 2-3weeks.

Pampam,
That's the usual promo rate ng USS dito but it's cheaper pag meron slang promotions via mastercard

[pampam]

@girlcrush
Thanks for the tip.
Question may resto pa ba open around 10pm in orchard area? Ganun kasi time dating namin. Also for kids iba ba ang rate nila sa mrt? Thanks

[burberi]

@pampam
That is too high..

Sis why mas expensive? And where mas mura? I was planning to buy that $68 ticket to USS kasi nga $74 ang regular price for adults. Tapos yung discounted price may kasama pa na $10 meal voucher.

[pampam]

@burberi
Sis nakita ko yung MasterCard promo mas cheaper nga sya lalabas pero wala ng meal voucher

[burberi]

^$61 ata yung mastercard. Pero since balak namin maglunch dun sa loob, mas ok pa rin yung may $10 voucher.
