Shopaholics unite for the Great Singapore Sale
Whether you’re a bargain hunter, designer clothes horse or something in between, it’s time to strap on your sandshoes and polish the plastic. Singapore’s annual eight-week shopping extravaganza runs from 26 May until 23 July, with branded goods discounted by up to 70%.
Shoppers from around the world are getting set to make their annual pilgrimage to the Great Singapore Sale (GSS), which is celebrating its 13th anniversary this year with incredible mark-downs on the price of electronics, jewellery, textiles, fashion, antiques, art, accessories and designer clothing.
Besides phenomenal shopping, the GSS also boasts an exciting entertainment programme, tonnes of freebies and opportunities to win a fabulous range of prizes.
Whether you fancy the designer boutiques and mega-malls of Orchard Rd and Marina Bay or the bustling atmosphere and haggling of market shopping in Chinatown and Little India, brilliant bargains abound in this unique island-wide sale.
Highlights of the GSS include Late Night Shopping, with centres from Orchard Road through to Marina Bay opening until midnight on weekends, and special late-night deals up for grabs when you shop at: Wisma Atria; Paragon; Tangs; Centrepoint; Plaza Singapura; Raffles City; CityLink; Suntec City Mall; Marina Square and Millenia Walk.
The Designer Showcase is another fantastic feature of the GSS, with luxury brands rewarding customers with some sensational offers. Some brands are holding end-of-season sales, while others are giving shoppers exclusive limited edition gifts with purchase.
Participating fashion houses include Gucci, Versace, Jean Paul Gaultier, Valentino, Kenzo, BCBG MaxAzria, Inez, Anya Hindmarch, Longchamps, Etro, Anteprima, Paul & Joe and Mumbai Se. High-end jewellers on sale will include Mauboussin, Yuli Jewellery and Larry Jewellery.
Why not have your hotel concierge arrange a chauffeur-driven limousine to drive you to Singapore’s premium shopping malls in style, allowing you to relax and enjoy your retail therapy – without having to carry any bags. Must-see stops include Palais Renaissance, Paragon, Ngee Ann City, Meritus Mandarin Hotel, Hilton Shopping Gallery and the Raffles Hotel Shopping Arcade.
The Singapore Showcase during the GSS is the perfect opportunity to buy something truly Singaporean for friends and family back home – or spoil yourself with local stores including Homespun, Museum Shop by Banyan Tree, Art Ferris, RISIS, Perlini’s Silver and LIFEbaby all staging new product launches and offering merchandise at hard-to-beat prices.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the options, just pick up the phone and call the designated 24-hour Shopping Concierge hotline, where trained staff will provide up to the minute information on the latest offers, and happily help you locate the best bargains – whether it’s a necklace, health potions, leather shoes or swanky suits you’re after.
