GSS sans the insane queues
As Singaporeans, we’re pretty much accustomed to queueing for every darn thing – but that doesn’t mean we actually like it. This Great Singapore Sale season, quit jumping on the bandwagon, skip the crazy crowds and visit buried treasures that are easily overlooked instead.
We’ve scoured for the sweetest GSS deals around Singapore – here are 9 places to visit before everyone else:
1. Mixshop
Lining racks with only the trendiest of fashion accessories, Mixshop is out to lull you into filling your shopping carts – all thanks to their staggering discounts. But don’t worry about recklessly squandering your money away, because we’ve singled out the top picks that are not to be missed.
Make a beeline for hair accessories, going for up to a whopping 92% off – or snag a truckload of $1 deals and stock up your vanity drawer to the brim without abusing your wallet.
Be sure to take some time to browse through their aesthetically appealing temp tats ($1.50), which are a unique way to spice up your party look.
