Today went to source for curtain quotation, of course decided to drop my mum's friend from our list. No choice, don't have enough budget for higher end curtains.

First place we went is the shop at west mall, the person quote us $2180 for full house, day & night curtains. We felt that the pricing is still out of our budget, decided to drop this shop also. But we found the colour of the string curtain we wanted. Selling @ $99, 1m by 3m. Will get the string curtain from them at later time.

Next we went off to clementi, there are 2 big curtain shops there. We walked into one of them, inital quotation is $1400++, we sat down with the uncle for more detail discussion, material selections. The uncle is very patient. He took out quite a number of material catalogs for us to choose. Finally, we settled the materials and the final price is $1380 for full length day & nite curtains for whole house, except for aircon ledge window, which i only wanted day curtain.

Tuesday, they wil send someone else down for measurements.

Your house got more window panels than normal flats? I suppose so right? Because yours are 2 storey.

Or you pick more expensive range?

I pick my MBR, plain ones but more expensive range. The other 2 rooms, I pick plain ones but cheaper range. Living room, I decided to go bold and pick a strip design range. Hopefully, will look nice.

Oh? There are plain ones but cheaper range? We picked ours from the curtains display. The sales person showed me a booklet with what looks like gunny sack weave. He says those are cheap...but we didn't like them. We saw a lot of really nice plain shiny ones in little booklets but he said these are all expensive. How much did you pay per metre for yours?
