The Gap Sale is On!

The Gap Sale is on again at Isetan Scotts, L3 Promotion Gallery. As with previous promotions, discounts are up to 70% and additional 20% for more than 5 items, which works out to an actual 76% discount on each item. This is the second Gap Sale I've been to and I look forward to it each time. There are always crowds at these things and you'll have to jostle your way around, but hey, that's the price you pay for fashion. These truly are fashion finds because I've had to dig through piles and piles of clothes to get them.  

Animal print halter dress. Original price SGD99. Discounted price SGD23. 

Ikat-print top. Original price SGD59. Discounted price SGD14.

Cowl-neck top. Animal print scarf. Royal blue cardigan.
Each item original price SGD59. Discounted price SGD14.

I bought other stuff as well such as basic white shirts and chinos, even stuff for the kids such as some past-season DVF dresses. Another great haul. Go check it out. Sale started today Oct 26 and ends Nov 8.

Shoe Finds at Zara

It's that time of the year again. Sale season. And even though we're already in August there are still lots of bargains to be found. Just recently I stumbled upon some really good shoe finds at Zara. I think I'm pretty lucky as most of the last pairs I've seen are in my size. And they're 50-70% off. Thank goodness for large feet.

ELC Going, Going, Gone!

I had an inkling that the ELC sale would be a big one and that I should have gone on the first day. Turns out I was right. When I received my mailer via yahoo, the sender was Forum The Shopping Mall, so I thought it was only limited to that branch. As it happens, the sale was occurring in all ELC branches - including the ones at Paragon and United Square. In any case, by the time I went to the Forum branch, it was pretty slim pickings. I browsed and thought - where are all the stuff? I usually window shop at ELC in Paragon and there were usually tons of things I wanted to buy but the prices were so expensive. At ELC Forum, most of the stuff I wanted was gone. There were a few science and discovery kits and the arts and crafts stuff that I managed to get but I wondered whether I would have gotten a better selection at the other branches. However, when I overheard the cashier talking to some customers about how stocks were getting sold out and they had to replenish more than once, I thought darn, no use going to the other branches then. In any case, I'm still quite happy with my ELC loot. Here's some of the stuff I got....

Note all sticker prices are before discount so most of the items I got were SGD11 each. Quite a good deal. Anyway, the last day of the sale happens tomorrow. There's still some build-it kits, toy cars, pretend play sets and games. There's even face paint sets priced to clear- originally at 19.90 now going for 2.00!

Everything's 50% off and additional 5% off for DBS cardholders.
