Johor Bahru remains a hot weekend destination for us Singaporeans, and for good reason – retail prices are so much lower there than here. Dig a little deeper, though, and you’ll find outlet stores where you can get your stuff for even cheaper.
These shops sell their off-season clothes, shoes, and bags at heavily-discounted prices, and with a bunch of these littered around JB, even the most broke amongst us will be able to find new items to spice up our wardrobes with.
