June is the month in which the Great Singapore Sale is in full swing, and with it comes a mad rush of shoppers saturating every inch of town. But there’s more than just atrium sales in the middle of malls – we’ve picked out some of the best deals you may have missed out on, covering everything from food to fashion and alcohol.
Fact: Italian food always provides comfort on those down days. Load up on some carby goodness with the pizzas and pastas at Positano Risto for a well-deserved pick-me-up – their 1-for-1 Fettuccine Carbonara ($15.98) and Margherita Pizza (U.P. $16.95) gives you extra incentive to do just that.
