shivan 0 Report post Posted June 12, 2008 Did you buy anything?? Bought Time Crisis 4 for PS3... haha... I'm still a kid at heart... Also checking out prices for the mini desktops for my parents place. Their PC just conked out. I'm also fixing up my new gaming PC this weekend hopefully. I'm a DIY person when it comes to PC. Like to buy all the parts for the PC according to the specs I want and put them together myself. I saw something interesting there also... They were recommending me to buy some sort of the voltage stabiliser equipment to save on electricity. They demonstrated to me on the spot. You just need to plug the equipment into your normal power socket and it will stabilise all your the power that your house consumes and in turn will help you save on the electricity bill. They even showed me a certain Mr Teo's electricity bill before and after using the equipment. Shaved about 30% off the bill. They even have money back guaranteee! They said if after using it for 2-3 months and your bill does not show a 10-20% savings, they will return the money to you in full! I didn't buy... not sure to believe or not... It cost $209 Hi Shivan, Did you spy any Philips booth? We're targeting a soundbar and hoping that there will be a good deal soon. I think there is a Philips booth... I'm not sure but I thought I saw one... I was just flying through the place cos I only got an hour to get through lvl 3,4 and 6... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't have the energy to stay online for so long... getting old... haha... Before all these MMORPG, I use to mud in my uni days... What is mud? Not the 'ni tu' hor... It is Multi User Dimension... It is like MMORPG but no graphics one... It is all text based... the most you get is ascii art... Use to be online the whole day lvling and attacking other clans until no need to eat, sleep, study, etc... hahaha... Wii games are quite fun also... Young and old all will enjoy...

Sometimes it may not be as worthwhile for these less hot items like the soundbar, cos they may just offer more free gifts but you pay the $RRP. I rather get direct discount if i don't find the gifts useful. Mapleleaf & Yel, thanks for supporting Neopets. Thought it's dying. Was there to help the office closed. They pulled out from S'pore.

Aiyoh it's so boring to me. Sorry for the abrupt reply yesterday as I was rushing off from work. Now my unit so dusty...and actually not much to see yet. Have to wait 3 weeks for capentary to be ready for installation and only just managed to finalised what we want. Now having headache on what kind of bulbs to use in each area. As there are 3 types of PLC bulbs/tube colour: warm(yellow), cool(lighter yellow) and white. I dunno whether it is okay to use the cool lights for kitchen. The shop reccommend white light but we are not a fan of white light as it is quite stark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
