Tricks to save money in Singapore? Anybody?

Answer 1

In Singapore, three things are extremely expensive, they are:
- tobacco (about 10 times more expensive);
- Vehicle (about 3 times more expensive);
- liquid (about 2 times more expensive).
So long you don't drive, smoke and drink, you will be able to save alot of money.

Answer 2

A) Stay at the YMCA while in Singapore and not at a Hotel.
B) Ask a local where to shop, and not shop at the "Western Shopping Centres", especially ORCHARD Road. There are two shopping centres, one run by the Taiwan Government and the other by the Chinese Government. Both are very cheap and they are the same quality and have warranties on your purchases.
C) Do not eat in the hotels. Eat at the YMCA or at the local food stalls, especially the Night food market near the river.
D) Travel by bus or train, and definitely not by taxi. You have to pay an excess when then go into the "Central Business District".

Answer 3

Adhere to the "value for money" concept. There's a lot of good stuff in Singapore, so you need to know where to look for it, at what price to buy it, and when to get it.

Like for instance, certain hotels offer discounts on their rates at certain periods; there is the Great Singapore Sale where discounts are common; there are flea markets in Singapore where you can find excellent stuff at bargain prices, etc.
