Bangkok--18 Jun--Vivaldipr
To showcase the Great Singapore Sale (GSS) as a sale and more, this year’s GSS was officially launched with an event that was both exciting and experiential, and one that encapsulated the essence of the GSS. Entitled ‘Your Great Singapore Sale Experience’, the Launch Event gave Singapore and international teams the opportunity to enjoy incredible savings that can be found at the Sale, as well as fun and exciting lifestyle experiences in Orchard Road, Marina Bay and Southern Waterfront as they competed for the grand prize of S$10,000 in the Singapore and International categories respectively.
In the International Category, which saw 15 teams from 9 countries face off against each other, the team from the United Kingdom out shopped the other international teams with spectacular savings of S$24,557.80 achieved from having spent just S$998.70 at the Great Singapore Sale. The first runner-up was the team from Vietnam and the second runner-up was the team from Indonesia.
The Thailand team of Nan-Piyada Turongkhakul and Patty-Ananya Apisithyakul, who finished much further down the pack, had a great time shopping and making friends with competitors from other countries. Besides chasing down sales bargains by taxi and MRT during a 4-hour spree across the island, the two Thai girls visited 3 shopping districts to complete fun tasks like cake decoration at Orchard Road, pose for a photo with the magnificent bay view at the Helix Bridge, and a stop by the VivoCity Promenade jigsaw puzzle.
The launch event successfully showcased the spectacular savings that can be found at the Great Singapore Sale. If the winning teams could achieve such incredible savings in just 4 hours, imagine the possibilities for those who have the time to scour the stores for bargains over Great Singapore Sale from now to 25 July 2010.
