[yc_mw]

Heehe, have benefitted alot from the forum, so ve planned out the above, but, looks abit too tight, so, juz a rough guide for myself to follow.

 

[dolly_gal]

i paid 838 for 6 day 5 nites and stay at hotel miramar in mid june for my HK trip thru CTC..

 

[singtel]

hi blue ginger,
yup at raffles plc. I'm travelling wif jetstar too. 4D3N. May extend if cant get euff of shopping!! Heehee. I paid air tix $452 for 2 pax, booked standford hotel (v near ladies street n fa yuen street) wif priceline. paid abt $320 for 3 nites.
Woa! piglet, ur itinerary so detail ah! i can get some info from urs too.... i'm going shenzhen too bt will leave out disney lands n ocean park. heehee Am travelling on 1st Aug, so gd of u to go on for 1week....

 

[yc_mw]

Hi Singtel,

No choice le, wanna go for only 5days 4 night for pure shopping nia, but as my partner hasn't been to HK b4, so needa compromise & do some sigh-seeing lor. Given a choice, I'd rather spent 1 week shopping there! I might cancel Ocean Park should I fins tat there's not enough time for me to shop. Keke, my boyfriend is gonna if he sees tis post.

 

[mist]

hi singtel,

which $ charger at raffles you go to huh??? good rate leh.... a couple of days i checked out People's park, they say 4.85 leh.

hi blue ginger,

i booked mine from City 99 asia, 5D4N stay at Majestic, fly by jetstar asia, inclu airport transfer + tickets to disneyland + transport to and fr disney. We pay total $732 per pax.

 

[adelene]

Thank mist. Good deal.

Ya, SingTel.
Which $$ changer? Your air ticket very cheaper leh! May I know where you get the ticket?

 

[yc_mw]

Saw u ladies talking bout Money Changer, I changed mine at the Money Changer at Bugis- Beside Crabtree & Evelyn. I didn't get my $$ straight-away, instead, I booked the rate with them, and I was given a rate of 4.9, I think that's a very good deal, but I had to leave my money with them for about 10days lor. I heard about this money changer also through the forums, and so far there's no rants about them, that's y I feel safe about passing them my money 1st.

 

[singtel]

Hi mist,

the money changer i went to is at arcade (i thk) u will see SOO KEE, den turn left. Its near the escalator. There are two money changers there. i went to the 1 on the left if u are facing in front of the escalator. (hope i din make u blur) Heehee... I din chk the other 1 though. Coz i thk the rates quite gd liao. Maybe u wana chk out and compare?

Hi blue ginger,
I booked mine online lor. During the promo period, so everythg is DIY.

Hi piglet, ur rates sounds gd. . Bt y need to leave the money with them for 10days?

 

[yc_mw]

Coz they short of like consolidate order then buy in BIG quantity, tat's y can give pretty good rate.

 

[selina]

hi Blue Ginger,
$725 is for 1 person. can't be for 3 pax. Too cheap to be true.

 

[dear99]

hi gers!

i'm travelling on jetstar on 15Aug e morning flight, who else same as mi??

e money changer at e arcade is it malay or indian guys??

 

[jaymz21]

anyone here going on the 28th of july? i'll be going with my wife and frens on the 8am flight from cathay.

 

[yc_mw]

Bumping up the thread a little.. For those who juz came back, any feedback on APM S.C.

*I'm taking Jetstar on 2nd Aug- 6.40am flight.* Anyone who's on same flight...

 

[queenie10]

Hi gals,i'm in HK currently...been here for 1wk plus.Recommended places for shopping is MongKok - Agryle Center & "Chao Liu Zhong Xin"....pls go during wkdays coz basically everyday is crowded as those youngster r having their summer holiday nw.APM shopping mall @ Kwun Tong has more things to shop than Times Sq @ Causeway Bay.

Recommended places for Dim Sum is Superstar (Hung Xing) @ Level 10 of Times Sq which i love it the most & Meixin @ Telford Plaza in Kowloon Bay MTR.

For cosmetic,Fancl & SKII products is cheaper in hk.

For those gals who likes jeans,u call try tis store "SALAD"...the jeans is quite nice in cutting & design (1pc is abt S$120plus)....they've branches in Times Sq,APM Mall,Grand Century Place & etc.



For those gals who wan to buy office suits,u can try Wanko coz they r having sale up to 70% disc,i love their pants n blazers (lots of design)

 

[queenie10]

I also bought alot of skirts from Esprit warehouse in TST....For adidas in kwun tong,1 normal jacket is roughly frm HKD$300 - HKD$450.Most of the retail is HKD$500 n they r having 10% disc at shopping center outlet.For shoes in kwun tong warehouse,i find that some r more cheaper in sg so nt really worth it.

 

[pinkberrycake]

Anyone join the half day city tour to Shenzhen free by tour group?? is there anything to shop here? my tour agency only give half day shopping tour to Shenzhen by not to the 'xiao ren guo', thus hesitate whether to go anot. And oso for the half day city tour to the peak, aberdeen etc, any free makan???

 

[minssy]

hi pinkberrycake,

suggest u dun go for such....as usual, they will bring you to places that will cheat u of your money one.. save the day and go shopping on your own...

 

[yc_mw]

Hi All,

Just wondering if anyone knows where to get doggie stuff like collars, accessories in HK? Anyone saw cute & unique stuff there?

 

[fat]

Hi All,

Juz wanna chk wht's the current rate for HK in Spore? And also wat's the weather now? Is it very hot? Im going in Aug. Thanks!

 

[kurera]

Kwun tong has all the old models FOR ADDIDAS & NIKE! So disappointing..haiz..

They have morseilla, espirit and sasa too...

Anyway...the season style not suit me leh..especailly for..mastina and bess...haaa

Rate..on July is about 4.86 at LOT 1 if I can last remember.

Piglet maybe yo try the markets lor..may have...

Fancl? cheaper?..erm..I checked the loose power box- they are expensive by a dollar plus..I paid tix to get there I should at least get it at lower rate leh. Since the box is more expensive..I walked out..kek kek kek

Really cheap ar...damn! I should have sort coverting the rest of the items in fancl! ;p

Basically is not like the past years that I went, maybe they took advantage that more visitors are visiting so they are not that cheap on some items...

Can you all imagine their accesories eh..necklace are all above 10 bucksto 79bucks...which I can get $9 from Singapore...not those plastic type.

I saw a particular bag that far east shops are selling at 39.90 for small bag and 49.90 for big bag..when I managed to find that in Li Yuen Street, I was super happy..but guess how much?

Above 100!!! Even she give me a 50% also match the price in Singapore..I may as well get in Singapore right? Grrrrrrr....

I would say BCBG / CK / suzuya / vertical club the branded stuff are cheaper than SIN..but..heh heh..you may not get your sizes leow..haaa

Pedder's building (corner) - you need take lift up has some shops that sell gowns which are of reasonable prices. However, it depends on their season and designs..you may find some good stuff there.

The smaller shops in granvile, carmeron and kimerbely road some discounted clothes not able to try so that is a minus points.

August will be super hot! wear comfortable shoes and t-shirt..skirt =AIRY)

But overall..I enjoyed the food lah..every year it's like rush for time..rush for shopping..so this year I finally get to eat and enjoy my meal! haaa..

 

[yc_mw]

Oh dear, the last timw I went, Fa Yuen St was a place that I loved so much due to it's cheap & trendy stuff...

KA: My fren changed yesterday at the changer beside Lim Chee Guan at Chinatown. The rate was 4.89.

 

[fat]

Thanks CAT & piglet!

Think will check out the rate nearer to my departure.
Hmmm....guess the weather gonna be like Spore...hot & humid!

I like Fa Yuean St too!!! Mongkok & Causeway Bay is also a good place to shop as well.

Who's going HK in Aug?

 

[fatcat]

piglet:http://hk.dogonelife.com/
this one is very big 3 story with doggie cafe too, also in Mongkok goldfish street there is a few ,one call Red carrot in chinese, they also sell lots of unique stuff from japan, i used to buy loads of things for my cats. When are you going? Now weather very bad, super hot and rain too.

[fat]

piglet - Im staying in Prudential and fly by Cathay. Since you going for a week than you planning to go Disney?

I dun like their Disney coz currently is juz all those kiddy rides and not fully done yet too....

 

[yc_mw]

Wah, so nice, taking Cathay, the other time when I book, no promo on Cathay, so, in order to 'cut cost' , gotta take Jetstar. Keke. Yup, planning to go Disneyland, but if given a choice, I wouldn't go la. Prefer to spend time hunting down great buys. Haha, but no choice le, my bf wanna go. My sis went to Disney liao, she say not too bad la, except that damn pissed off by the Mainland pple. Rude & Loud.. Well, no choice lor.

 

[fat]

piglet - agree with you man! Those MIC pple damn rude wan!

 

[schnauzie]

KA - im leaving next Sunday, one week after our chilli crab feast! my first trip there leh..hope i don get lost.

 

[mist]

hi ladies,

i just came back from HK... weather is really terrible.... very hot even i wear sleeveless...... my arms and face are tanned and red!!!

as for the sales, i dun find it really interesting leh.... after converting the $$, the clothes cost abt the same price in singapore.... i may as well get it in singapore.... me didn buy alot of things lah. as for the food, i think it depends on individual lah..... i find some are rather oily and salty. maybe the weather is too hot, until i also dun hv much appetite. overall, the trip still okay lah....

 

[fat]

Hey Sch!!! you are here too! Oh, so you going next week liao lor? How many days you going? Which hotel?

[singtel]

Hi ladies

[fat]

Hi gals....thanks for the info about the rate. Will chk it out!

Sch - me staying Prudential @ Jordon Road

 

[yc_mw]

For those who just came back, any idea on their prices of Lingerie? Is it cheaper than Singapore?

 

[soudezne]

Hi gals
the rates at money exchange in chinatown yday was 4.905... guess USD shd hv depreciate again..

 

[adelene]

Hi gals,
I came back last friday. Hong Kong not like what you gals said. The weather not hot cos typhoon is hitting Taiwan area, hence brought occassional shower to Hong Kong at the same time. Remember your rain coat and umbrella. A waterproof wind-breaker can oso do the job if you just went there shopping.

Great shopping at HK. I left HK with just HK$40 at the airport and have no extra to buy goodie back for friends. Greatest catch is a skirt that costs HK$5 (S$1) at the shopping complex next to Prudential Hotel (I stayed there). You gals can go to Kwai Fang Stn near Tsing Yi. The shopping complex is similar to Singapore Far East plaza. It is better to compare the price in HK cos some of the place dun sell cheap stuff, you have to hunt up and down for them. Time square at causeway bay is super crowded. I enjoy my time there. If you are going for nightlife (clubbing), can forget it. It is not so happening at Lan Kwai Fang, disappointed!!!

If you gals are planning to take the 3Day Tourist Unlimited Train ride, go to the airport service counter to get a bonus guide. You can get discount for the ride (HK$30 less/card). Disneyland is super expensive due to the summer holiday now (HK$350/entrance), if you are not having any package, not worth going. But it is up to individual. =)

 

[fat]

soudez - juz to chk which money changer in Chinatown you changed?

Blue Ginger - i agree with you that some shops next to Prudential have nice stuffs. The last trip i went, bot a pair of shoe only Sin $8.
Btw, the shopping complex at Kwai Fang Stn, is it big? Is it near the station? besides the shopping complex, is there any other shopping area there?
