Branded Bag Cleaning Service

Recently, my brother commented that my Prada bag looks like a dumpster bag and no one will steal it since people thought that it is not authentic. I have been using this bag for 6 years and I think I am used to the dirty sights, that's why I don't really mind the dirty issue. Few years back I have tried to wash it with soap powder but those black patches are still there, doesn't really help.

I am aware that there are shops that offer bag cleaning service but they charged an exorbitant price. As a result, I have been putting aside the cleaning task for years.

Two weeks ago, I finally decided to give it a try. So, I went down to the shop and asked for a quotation. To my little surprise, they quoted me S$140. After some bargain, I paid S$120 for the cleaning service. The shop is located in a mall and therefore they follow normal mall operation hours. The shop accepts credit cards or NETS. The cleaning service takes not more than 10 days. I received SMS before 10 days due informing me my bag is ready for collection.

I am satisfied with the result, all the black patches are gone and they look new again.

New Credit Card

R ecently, I signed-up for " The American Express ® True Cashback Card " whereby I can enjoy 5% cash back for the first 3 months. Initially, I signed-up with the thought that " Ok lah, just give it a try and I can always cancel it if I don't like ". To my surprise, it actually turns out to be a pleasant surprise when my first bill came! I see the cash back in the same bill. This means that whatever amount that I spent using the card is discounted 5% immediately. Some people might think that there are not many merchants accept American Express. Well, to a certain extends, this is one of the drawback. I checked a few merchants which I often spend on and I would like to share it here for your reference. Please don't get it wrong that I am trying to promote anything here. Well, I am not an insurance agent nor property agent nor credit cards promoter not any sales person. I am just sharing as consumer point of view. Who knows, few of you might be sharing even...

First Home in Singapore

L ike many other Singaporean, at theage of early twenties, I am planning to purchase my first home. At this stage,I am at a cross junction whereby I will have to choose what type of home I needto go for. Since I am not rich and I do not want any external assistance(borrow money from parent), private property is definitely out. One will not beable to feel sense of achievement by asking for parent or relatives’ help.   Looks like I am going for public housing (HDB) then. Filtering EC and DBSSwhich I can’t afford, I still have to decide on how many flat rooms of HDBflats I am going for: studion / 2 rooms / 3 rooms / 4 rooms / 5 rooms / EM. By the way for thosewho are not familiar with Singapore public housing, 3 rooms flat doesn’t mean flatwith 3 bedrooms and 5 rooms flat doesn’t mean flat with bedrooms. On top ofthat, there are several models for resale flats. For instance there are model A4 rooms flats, model S 4 rooms flat, etc. They are varies in term of size, 4rooms flats are ...

Safe Deposit Box

Have been searching high and low in Singapore to rent a safe deposit box but to no avail. Some of the bank said all their safe deposit boxes are full and the waiting list is pretty long; some of the bank said they no longer have this service; one of them said I need to sign-up for fixed deposit of S$20K before I can rent it. I tried to check on private safe deposit box service and small space rental, the price is far too much higher as compared to the rate offered by the bank. When I am about to lost hope, finally I found "Bank if China" in Raffles Place. I am required to open a saving account with them and maintain minimum of S$1500 in the account to avoid monthly fall below fee. Although I am unable to visit the bank on weekdays as their opening hours fall within my working hour and I am not working nearby, the good news is the bank is open on every Saturday 9am to 11:30am.
