We’ve officially hit December which means your brain is probably on holiday mode 24/7. You’re beyond ready to wake up at noon, live in pyjamas all day, and splash your hard-earned cash at the malls in the name of Christmas shopping.
Now, we don’t want to find you weaving in and out of the crowds on the night of 24th December, competing for last-minute gifts. That’s why we’re sending you to Far East Malls where you can do all of your shopping, roam the holiday markets, and still have time to take pics with the decor.
The decor at Far East Malls is so chic, you’ll want them to keep it up all year round.
Orchard Central, for example, has decked its halls in swoon-worthy 12 Days Of Christmas theme. Inside, there are towering toy soldiers, a giant clock tower, and tiny village houses draped in snow.
Outside, there’s a Spider Man’s Tower Bridge lookalike that lights up every night and makes for great photo ops.
The weeks leading up to Christmas see some of the best holiday markets popping up all over town – one of which is the Christmas market at Orchard Central.
Expect to find lil’ booths selling accessories, apparel, garlands, tinsels, and everything you didn’t know you needed.
When you spend a minimum of $50 in a single receipt, you’ll be able to exchange them for free workshop passes*. There’s a free play session (U.P. $35) at The Polliwogs, a VR game (U.P. $45) at Sandbox VR, and an art jamming session (U.P. $45) at Walking on Sunshine, among others.
Here’s the part where you get rewarded for spending hours gifts shopping for your friends and fam.
For every $30 spent at any Far East Malls, you’ll be in the running for Christmas bakes, over 100 staycations at hotels like Oasia Resorts Sentosa, and shopping e-Vouchers worth up to $50. Simply download the shopFarEast App (App Store | Google Play), scan your receipt, and play the Tap & Win game to score yourself some goodies.
That’s not all. You’ll also get free Christmas wrappers and sticker packs when you do your shopping at Clarke Quay Central, Orchard Central, Square 2, and West Coast Plaza.
Christmas is near. So go ahead and start blasting your holiday albums, deck your home in reds and greens, and hit Far East Malls up for some of the most festive vibes in town.
Besides the Christmas decor, shopping, and markets, there’ll also be Christmas Carollers gracing the area with their vocals from 3rd-18th December between 6pm and 7pm. One last thing before you leave: make sure to apply the promo code <SOLTSL10> when you sign up for an account on the shopFarEast App to get a $10 shopping voucher.
Then, spend it on yourself because you deserve it. Merry Christmas.
