Try to allot some time for shopping alone. Head to Bugis Street for a good bargain of souvenir items, or to the Lucky Plaza along Orchard Road (lots of Filipinos there too). For second-hand gadgets, go to Mustafa Centre .

Bugis Street and Bugis Junction is Singapore's Version of Hong Kong's Iconic Mong Kok Shopping area albeit on a smaller scale. There are assorted Shops, Stalls and even a local market selling all kinds of local and foreign stuff and the prices here are way lower than in Orchard Road. They also have a Big MRT Stop in the middle of Bugis Junction Area. They say that the Bugis Junction also has lots of Transexual people and Bisexual People at night. This area is near my hotel and is just a short 10 minute walk and they also have hawker centers and food courts here of which we ate at the Alberstson Food Court (see my separate restaurant tips).

Tired of shopping? While at Bugis Street, then pamper yourself. There is a nice spa with a charming slogan. It is called Amore Fitness & Boutique Spa. "I am amore. I am more". Sounds lovely right? Well, when you get sweaty and all from all that shopping, then just go to amore, have a shower, a steam bath and a massage. I've tried their acupuncture massage, which according to them is their signature massage. I felt good when I left the spa. Try it!

Bugis Street is famous for carefree shopping and eating. Clothes, watches, foods - you'll enjoy choosing from a wide selection and you won't mind carrying lots of shopping bag ;-)
Explore all the adjacent streets to it and you will discover small eateries, fruit stalls, and department stores.

The Bugis Street Flea Market is situated along a walkway through Bugis Village, opposite the air-conditioned pedestrian mall, Parco Bugis Junction.
These three-storey shophouses are home to around 100 stalls selling a variety of different goods along that long, humid and narrow street. They range from casual clothes, accessories, bags, street wear to CDs.
The level 2 is airconditioned and you can have your tea break at the Bugis Cafe. There is a food court at level 1.

In the Bugis village, you can sample Malaysian, Indian curry and Singaporean noodles at affordable prices. Don't miss Abdul Gafoor Mosque and the candy/multi-colored shops selling scarves.
Please view website for other interesting places.

Parco Bugis Junction is a shopping mall that is unique and very dear to my heart.
Built around existing historical Peranakan shop-houses, it has a glass-roof that allows the sun-light to come streaming in (but keeps the rain out!) With the air-condition wafting through, shopping here is a really pleasant experience - removed from the normal humidity that is typical of Singapore. It certainly reminds me of my beloved Sydney on a spring morning!
All the mid-to upper range international & Singapore based clothing brands are here: for example, Bossini, Giordano, Urban & Co, BsBy, Pretty Fit (shoes), etc. There are a large number of modern jewellery stores, a couple of watch shops, a big Sony camera and accessories shop on the ground floor, a shpp with nice wallets and backpacks for teenagers and older children. The Japanese Department Store Seiyu is also here.
Food: If you can distract your kids away from Moshi Burger, McDonalds or Starbucks, the Basement Foodcourt here has a nice selection of value-for money hawker grub and does a brisk business at all hours of the day.
Tried & Recommended:-Fish balls, Fish Cakes, Beef Noodles, Singapore Laksa, Nyonya Kuih-all yummy and inexpensive!
