Bargain hunting for taps & bowls

Mr 黑 - Went around a lot of hardware shops, from Sim Siang Choon to the smaller shops in Balestier and Hougang. Decided on buying from Hoe Kee cause they had a ‘fountain’ tap that we both liked. Went to the main office in Genting Lane. Got a 10% discount from the salesperson as compared to 5% if we bought from their retail shops. Bought an Ariston heater, ktichen sink and tap with commercial look, one glass bowl cum vanity top with fountain-style tap for outside toilet.Went to Poh Joo at Jalan Besar to buy a bowl and tap for MBR toilet. Also got 2 toilet-roll hooks there.

Mrs 黑 – If the contractor didn’t insist that we bought the taps/ sinks/ heater by this weekend, I think my tortoise Hubby will continue to wait wait wait … I am so proud to say that all the taps and sinks (except for Kitchen’s one, but I love it as well!) were chosen by me !! Presenting to you my selections:

Kitchen Sink (Not exactly , but similar to this pic)




Tip of the Day:
Try to buy everything from one shop. They will offer you a cheaper price and better discounts.

BUT, don't force yourself to buy all the items if you can't find what you want !! Remember you gona face it everyday! Must buy something you really love! At the right price of course!
