ivy,

no worries, feel free to chat down here. i still like the walk in selection method, first come first serve, balloting for BTO is really annoying!

i was joking with my wifey maybe it's becos i always vote for opposition thats y no new flat for me.

rondy,

it's a corner unit on 9th floor, highest floor only 14th floor nia. the seller are divorce case so they quite urgent to sell unit.

ya lor offer $20k they still not interested, i view the unit in mar, maybe it's fate lor.

kcsek,

i'm thinking of using bedroom 2 for master room too. it's quite big, my agent was joking can put 3 queen size bed there side by size.

regarding the opening in bedroom 1, it's quite an interesting idea. will discuss with my wifey

Currently, I'm searching for lightings for my living room and 2 bedrooms plus downlights for my bedroom cornice.

Whats the reasonable price for those 2 tubes energy saving lights and squarish downlight?

I saw a lots of shops along Balestier Road & Jalan Besar, any recommedation on lighting shops?

for downlights extreme lighting charges me $20 per set with Osram bulbs. if u want normal bulbs they charge $18 per set.

You can got to extreme at 371 balestier road. Look for Alex. nice young chap.

thks for the recommendation, since i'm working near tuas, will scout ard the few shops in chinese garden first before heading to balestier road.

yah loh angel.. i feel a bit sayang to shift out of that place... but no choice lah... i need my boy to stay near my mil so that when he goes to Pri school, I won't have a headache over who to fetch him from where.. I still travel back to jurong point every now and then and I miss the prata at the library..

Hehe, sg is small. 1hr can reach aniwhere liao. hehehe

Agree! The downlights there are slightly cheaper. heheeh, but the rest of the lights selection abit limited.

yah i agree that the rest of their lights selection abit limited. but i am not really affected cos I didn't buy any fanciful lights. I use all down lights cos I wanna cut cost and decided not to have all the swee swee lights.

me went extreme..they charge me $25 ley......2x18watt de......hmm....

I guess they gave us better price cos that time both me and familyof4 went together thus they gave us a better deal.

LOL Can you imagine with running around the island for the pass few day then the day when it come to

settling the lights hor I am totally tired liao.. Than told my hubby just got to the near by one and not going to town shop.

Just go in get what we want. I think we loose out in the bargain part as we did not scout around. Erms.. dun know why le.. most of the shop we go all uncle did not offer good price to us le. Haiz

I guess they gave us better price cos that time both me and familyof4 went together thus they gave us a better deal.

maybe one day someone can start a spree on buying light together than the price will be real dirt cheap

Angel81,

where did u get your lightings from? also from extreme? wat's the diff between osram lights & normal lights?

zerochristy,

hahahaha, my wife is the one who dun like to shop around, for me usually i compare > 3 shops before committing.

maybe can start a Mass Order thread and we can mass order together.
