Drop by Suntec yesterday.... could not find any great deals (all similar to those you can find in HM, Audio House, Best), and for me food & electronic just don't match...

Hence at SRP it is not really attractive, when I was playing with the cameras, I overheard the salesman promoting the cameras to the "aunties/uncles"... always pushing them for higher item purchase but did not mention to them the pit-falls...

One interesting conversation

Auntie: "Is this cheaper here than outside"
Salesman: "Our price and outside pricing all the same, fix price mah.... but we give more free gift as we are doing a promotion... buy here definitively more worth it"
