Valu$ - Sengkang Mall

AbbeyWe strolled Compass Point and we found this shop, Valu$. Out of curiosity, we entered it. As we were walking through their aisle of goods, I heard someone talked in Tagalog, then came the reply in the same dialect. I scanned the faces of every staff. Most of them are Filipino :) Wow. We also see goods that I thought were only sold in Lucky Plaza. Yahoo! I can now buy Pinoy chips here at a fraction of the fare. The prices are slightly cheaper than Fair Price or Sheng Shong. Here we bought our over-the-door hook rack for about SGD1.90. I'm looking for this thing since we can't drill to any part of our flat.



WILL: Nothing to do and nowhere to go, that's the main reason why we stumble upon this store. I thought it is just an ordinary store that caters imported food, yun pala most of the staffs were pinoy. You can just imagine how we feel when we meet Filipinos here in Singapore.
      
Valu$ makes the Lucky Plaza nearer to Punggol. Hehe. Kasi we buy chichi pa to Lucky when we miss our mighty junkies. 
      
You can visit this store at Compass Point in Sengkang, fourth floor. Oh, i forget, some of there items is way cheaper than Daiso :)

Singapore Post




ABBEY:
Snail mails are very slow? I think here in SG, the mails are on wheels :) The delivery is faster and prompt. We hope that all those mails that we sent will be delivered on time. Or worst until the holiday season will be over. Receiving mails from your loved ones, specially the traditional mails, is so heart-warming because they do have the personal touch compared to the electronic messages. No wonder na ganun kiligin si Wilma everytime  she receives one from me.


WILL: Letters slash mails play big part with our relationship. Even emails is around and sending sms is just a second away, snail mails are very different. It has the kilig factor lalo na pag makita mo na yung handwriting ng taong mahal mo.
      So in this season, even though we cannot send a very big present, we hope in small ways like this we can show how important our family & friends to us.
      Kung sa pinas di na uso ang post, dito sa Singapore, every street ata merong mailboxes and to my surprise even the collection is everyday. On afternoon, it is always full.
      Thank you Singapore Post for a wonderful service.

Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid (SHA)


ABBEY:
I'm always skeptical regarding products that will be applied on the face. Because it will leave patches of red marks if my skin harshly reacts on the it. After clean-up, when Wilma told me to try Hada Labo, I replied "Ikaw na lang siguro ang magsubok". She gave me a smirk :) I applied it. My face was not irritated. The product worked well on me. My cheeks were soft until the next day. We managed to its cost around SGD 25/100ml bottle.


WILL: There is no Hada Labo in Philippines, so when they announced that they are giving away free samples, I did not have second thought to request for it. It took a month before this came to our pad. 
      After cleaning our face, we applied the face lotion. Then the feeling is so intense, so soft. Indeed, it hydrates our face. Thank you Hada Labo for this product.
