jazzysou1 0 Report post Posted November 7, 2012 I went to 3 places to check out the led lights.. Initially I wanted to go JB n purchase but really no time cos' I would travelling quite a bit for work, hubby not back yet & my dad got admitted to SGH on Mon late night so v v bz. I went to this shop at Blk 637, Veerasamy Rd that sells Philips lights & I told him I wanted LED lights for my L-Box celing, he intro me LED spotlights. I also quite blur, don't know what I am actually looking for so thought it is the correct one he was showing me. He seemed pretty sincere & nice so I told him I will KIV.End of the day when I reconfirmed with my contractor, I realized this guy been introducing me to the wrong kind of lights when I sent him the pic the guy intro me! Next stop, I went to CH at Balestier, they quoted me $90/ 1 LED light! He said since I want 10 pieces, he can give me 10% discount, which is $81/1 LED light (Note: They are not Philips one somemore). My sis later brought me to another shop( Extreme Lightings, 371 Balestier Rd) that she always buy from. The guy, WIlson is very helpful & knowledgeable. He said he don't have Philip brand in his shop for LED but the rest of the lights are equally good as well. Btw, all the LED lights from China la but the ones he intro me got safety checks approved by Singapore authorities so I end up purchasing from him cos' he gave me a reasonable price. But my pocket still burn BIG hole la! I can imagine how much I save if I go JB or order from China.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Finally can found neighbour from the same area right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jazzysou1 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2012 More things bought yesterday!I went to Heritage & was served by a very nice girl called Sharrine. She assisted me & answered all my queries professionally & patiently. She gave me a pretty good price for my Crizto kitchen Sink, bathroom sink, 2 taps & a bathroom glass shelf. I went over to Universal Union but service there so so only but also much better than Poh Seng though. The price for kitchen sink is the same as Heritage but the bathroom sink is so much higher. In the end, I decided to get the items from Heritage as Sharrine seems more keen in my biz. I also walked past a shop that sells pretty cheap bathroom accessories & main door grilles! Uncle Tay quoted me abt $200+ for my gate & $300+ for my sis's gate which is bigger & wider. My sis said it is quite reasonable. I might just go bk & get the gate though since it has the color we wanted. My contractor only plans to the gate for us.. Can anyone tell me if it is cheap by market rate? The kind of gates Uncle Tay is selling Uncle Tay's shop- 720, Geylang Rd (lor 44) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
