Cotton On (Wisma)

ITS THE TIME OF THE YEAR AGAIN! THE GREAT SINGAPORE SALE!

The GSS is crazy enough to send all sane women's pulses racing at the thoughts of the crazy deals and the chance to own something so expensive that we will usually not buy. Every single time we women flip over the slashed down price tags, we will squeal silently and let the sales cloud our judgments and purchase the coveted items. (Though the chances of us never ever using them is pretty high too)

For me, I like to think of myself as a pretty rational shopper. (Who wouldn't be now? Look at the inflation going around. The exorbitant price of oil! What is the government going to do? Sorry. Sidetracked. One last question: Don't you feel that this year GSS isn't as happening?) So to avoid overspending on during this very crucial period, (And to avoid eating bread for the next few months...) the smart thing is to choose the right stop to shop in.

On any usual day, one would be able to get pretty good deals at Cotton On already with loads of offers going at 2 for $20 tops and 2 for $30 and more, etc. But during a sale, the prices are much more insane... (To the point where you will suspect whether you are actually in Orchard Road at such prices. XD) I actually bought a pink and aqua cardigan at $10 each and a gray mini dress at $7.50! Plus, the best thing about Cotton On is that they have a wide range of basics to choose from so you wouldn't have to worry about purchasing an item that you wouldn't wear in the future. =)

However, the downside to Cotton On is that you can't expect to have much service in the shop as the shop is usually always crowded with people. The salespeople are too busy maintaining and tidying up the place to help. The structure of the shop is also rather awkward as the fitting room is located at a rather hard to get to location. And with the amount of people in the shop, fitting is always a hassle.

So be prepared to face some inconvenience which at the end of the day would always be offset by the prices. And when you go home with the purchases with a smile on your face, you will know that it was all worth it. (",)

P.S. I sorta of disappeared from Yebber when my school started last semester. I was way too caught up with my schoolwork and after-school activities. Well, its the holidays now - so time to take a break and surf Yebber again! Yeah!

The first time i've been there it was the prices quoted that caught my attention.Made small talks with the people working there,and gathered that Cotton On was founded in Australia.This is the first time they launch an opening in Singapore.The design of the clothes ranges from vintage to trendy wears.Bought a number of clothes and am very satisfied with their service. I've just caught their new store at Plaza Singapura.Should check it out.Great place to buy nice clothes at affordable prices!! Looking forward to shopping there more!!
