I'm hoping that this blog will be a guide to help other people, either living or vising this great city, to help them save a little money now and again. It will be a mix of shopping tips, ideas for free or cheap days out and some recipes that I have found that save us money.
I am a stay at home mum to a six year old son. My husband travels a lot for business, so I'm the one who does most of the shopping for every day items. I'm British, but we have spent the last 6 years in the USA, moving to Singapore in January of this year. I love Singapore, especially the public transport system. After 6 years of living in Texas, it's great to be able to take a bus or train, rather than having to drive everywhere.

I have always loved saving money and would much rather buy something if it's on sale, rather than spending the full price on it. So far I have found that Singapore can be as expensive as you want it to be. For example I have found that if you look in some of the stores you could pay around $20.00 for a punnet of strawberries - I'm sure they are wonderful strawberries, but I would much rather go to the wet market and buy a punnet for $3.00. Wet markets can be daunting places, but I'm quite happy to try new places to see if I can get good value for money.

I'm still finding my way around Singapore and hope you will come with me on this exciting journey.

I'M NOW FULFILL FINANCIALLY BECAUSE OF THE LOAN I GOT FROM LFDS .I would like to bring this to the notice of the public about how i came in contact with Mr Benjamin after i lost my job and being denied loan by my bank and other financial institution due to my credit score. I could not pay my children's fees. I was behind on bills, about to be thrown out of the house due to my inability to pay my rent, It was during this period my kids were taken from me by foster care. Then i set out to seek for funds online where i lost $3,670 that i borrowed from friends which i was rip off by two online loan companies. Until i read about:loan online (247officedept@gmail.com) somewhere on the internet, Still wasn't convince because of what i have been through until a relative of mine who is a clergy also told me about the ongoing loan scheme at a very low interest rate of 1.9%% and lovely repayment terms without penalty for default of payment. I have no choice than to also contact them which i did through text +1-989-394-3740 and Mr Benjamin responded back to me That day was the I'M best and greatest day of my life which can never be forgotten when i receive a credit alert of $400,000.00 Usd loan amount i applied for. I utilized the loan effectively to pay up my debts and to start up a business and today i and my kids are so happy and fulfill. You can as well contact them through email: (247officedept@gmail.com) WhatsApptext helpline: +1-989-394-3740 Why am i doing this? I am doing this to save as many that are in need of a loan not to be victim of scams on the internet. Thanks and God bless you all, I'm Oleksander Artem from Horizon Park BC , Ukrain.
