Yet to be completed shopping malls coming soon

Today I will featured yet to be completed shopping malls that will be opened this year. More shopping choices for us but with the recession and bad economy, I wondered if business will be good. Competition must be very tough for the many shopping malls in Orchard Road. There are just too many. But it will be good for me....lol...I like to shop or window shop in different malls and looking out for good dining places and good deals.

This is ION Orchard which is opposite CK Tang. It is a high-rise residential condominium cum shopping mall. It is expected to be completed end of this year. You can read more about it in here.

This mall is so big and the escalator is facing the main road. Glad they kept the trees otherwise it looked like a concrete jungle. It is an offence to cut down trees in here, you need permit to cut down trees. You can read more about the mall in here.

Another yet to be completed shopping mall called Lluma Shopping Centre opposite Bugis Junction.

The star and hexagon shaped structures will be lighted when completed. This shopping centre will looked very lovely at night.

With so many shopping malls, we are spoilt with choices...lol. But I hope they dont sell the same stuff in the malls. We can always see the same brand of shops in almost every shopping mall. I am not a shopalcoholic. During good times, I shop less cause things are too expensive and not worth to buy but during the bad times, the many discounts and good deals allowed me to buy the things that I have been eyeing for a long time.....yayyyyy....lol.

Times are Bad

Look at the long queues of taxi waiting for passengers in front of Centrepoint, Orchard Road. It used to be long queues of shoppers waiting for taxi and this is on a Saturday afternoon.

Geez, times are really bad. We should come out and shop and make the economy better but of course we must not overspend our budget.

I know I am shopping this week with my childhood friend, there's a lot of good promotions and discounts on the things that we needed. I need to get some new clothes on good discounts to replace some old clothes hanging in my wardrobe for a long time...lol, and a nice evening dress for another nephew getting married this year. :)

Tomorrow post will be shopping malls opening soon.

Who is your favourite?

Yesterday, I was shopping in Orchard Road. Then in front of Heeren Shopping Mall, I saw this guy promoting for holiday in Queensland, Australia. So I quickly take my camera and snap him cause he was acting funny earlier on to attract people to his booth but when he saw me snapping he just waves..lol. Thanks for posing. :)

Another guy not shy of my camera is this sumo wrestler.
This is his brother and they both are promoting for a Japanese Restaurant in the basement of Heeren Shopping Mall.

Now guess who is this guy, he is famous all over the world....hehehe

Who do you like? My favourite must be the sumo brothers. :)

Coasters

My contribution for Pink Saturday are coasters. These coasters in the shape of Japanese Kimono are so cute. I kept them in safe place and never use them....lol. They are too pretty to be use.

I love the little flowers and prints on them.

These glass coasters are not pink in colour but as I am on the subject of coasters, I thought I put them here too. They are wedding gifts when I attended a wedding.

For more pinky participants, please visit Beverly of How Sweet The Sound.
