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.

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 ...

Diaper

S$37.95 for 2. (Price on discount taken from NTUC Fairprice) Calculation in RM:- 37.95 / 2 X 3 = RM56.93 each RM29.99  each. (Price on discount taken from Tesco in KSL, Johor Bahru) The quality for both are good, material is soft and comfortable. Besides, it can absorb more urine compared to other cheaper brand, reduce the hassle of keep changing diaper or cleaning up the overflow.   The drawback to buy from JB is it is not easy to carry back if you travel by MRT/bus since it is quite heavy.
