iJooz Orange Juice Vending Machine

Well, while there is an orange shortage, iJooz had proven themselves as one of a successful brand across 32 countries. Just in SG, many people including myself loves what iJooz offers. A freshly squeezed orange on the spot in a cup upon anytime in the day. Price is also good value. I do hope for their success in their IPO in the US by 2027.

New Pokemon Trading Card Series

At first, i really thought its the advertisement of the new Pokemon Card Set Launch in Jan 2026. But it turned out to be scams alert from Police haha. Yeah better buy from legit source and avoid buying it online, if want to buy from online, better pay only during meet up or from verified seller. 😆

Seiko Prospex 1968 Heritage Diver GMT SPB534 Seashadow

Haiya, the moment i saw this, now i am unable to "unsee" it. Having owned a few Seikos ranging from JDM and Limited Edition models, now what i do not have is GMT function. Just nice this not only met with my own requirement of being a GMT and gold bezel, it is also using the latest Automatic 3 days engine from Seiko. Hence it is seriously the latest modern technology with 1968 heritage diver elements. Further checks that this is also a limited edition piece. Ranging around SGD$2800. Think first....

Rude Passenger for Private Hire

Yeah i agree that this particular passenger is indeed rude. But not saying all passenger are like this and all private hire are good too. I also takes private hire very often due to work, i also had some bad experience with private hire drivers. For example, accepting my job at 10am, then waited for 15 mins, still at same location. Then when i text him at 10.18am, after 5 mins, he cancel my job without any reason. Then i wasted the damn 23 mins. Isn't that making anyone angry??? But for this case, the passenger need not make this kind of remarks also lah.

[A&W] 1 For 1 Root Beer Float

Realized A&W always had special promotion for 1 for 1 Root Beer Float. Got to admit that their Root Beer Float is the best. Even the A&W Can drink can beat this dispensed from the tap. Its also the only beer that children can drink. However, their menu are kind of expensive. Two sets can easily costs $30+. But i usually eat their fried chicken rather than the other food menu. Probably need to look for their same day same month promotion monthly.

SoundCore Select 4 Go

I was not expected of such speaker at this price point to be impressive, BUT it is really IMPRESSIVE ! It had a very good bass. Tested all type of music, social media and playing of games, the sound brought out with very good clarity and good bass. Although i don't dare to test waterproof, my daughter throw this speaker on the floor from sofa level and didn't have a scratch. Battery life so far so good. Charging is easy as well. Can't wait to do more testing from outdoor. So far the indoor experience is good.

Bras Basah Kopitiam Price :/

I think i ever talked about this kopitiam before and despite the high price, i rarely come back here unless there is no choice. As i worked nearby this area, i sometimes came to this kopitiam to meet my ex colleague or simply drank kopi there. The price which is well known to be expensive had been causing some controversary again. Typically this stall owner thinks that charging kopi and tea regardless of whether have milk or no milk, should be the same price for ease of calcuation. But its kind of ridiculous lah. It is actually quite expensive in this area as compared to other kopitiam there and kopi isn't top notch also. But what i can say is the public can say what they like, ultimately still the owner determine the price. 

Madam Kwan Restaurant at Mid Valley South Key

Came to have dinner at Mid Valley South Key for Madam Kwan Restaurant. The place is clean and service is not bad. Tried their speciality platter, Noodles, some special drink, Bandung and Nasi Lemak. I got to say some wasn't good and some was good. But their menu have many dishes, so can't try all. Overall was ok, but other than the pricier side, the curry chicken was a little heavy on the coconut side. 

Physical Bank Debit and Credit Card Security

Best to travel is to bring only a few useful cards and always keep your belongings in check, the moment which card is missing, immediately report to the respective banks to block them regardless of overseas or local shores. Of course while in Flight, cannot do much. So the above seem that the owner isn't aware until a given time to realise it. Enough time for the thief to spend it as much as its able to. Always treat your belonging, cash and credit card close and secure !

Malaysians boycott Mcdonald in Malaysia

No matter how Malaysians boycott McDonald in Malaysia, i will still support McDonald in both Malaysia and Singapore. I support the food, and not the Political problem. If Malaysia made its own, but copied Mcdonald's style, then i wonder how US will see this. Time to see how the people react on this. But again if they replicate one, i will definitely try. 😆

Molly Tea First Outlet in Singapore

Shenzhen-based tea chain, Molly Tea will be opening their first outlet in Singapore at Orchard Central in 2026. Basically is just jasmine tea or matcha which is pretty common here. But only exception is they are claiming that theirs is the top notch and popular one. Not sure, but gotta try once they open. Will probably give it a try when i go around the area.

High Value Data Required when entering US

Gosh ! This is really silly. What if the person have no social media account, then how? I mean not everyone might be truthful anyways. Most of the stuffs might be personal also but i felt that this is way overboard. Doubt i will ever make a trip there in the US anyways. 😒

New Expert Rollout ! [WhiteOut Survival]

Really love this Expert's addition to further strengthen our farming and troops. All quests are doable with certain limitation, but still good for F2P players. The paying portion, i felt isn't as good as it is, but still beneficial to players. Better save the money for other.

Apple Foldable will shake up the market?

Well, i got to disagree on this as the economy is pretty bad and this is going to cost two arms. I wonder how people are going to afford, unless Apple can priced this the same as the regular iPhone price at this stage. Hence, i don't think it will shake up the market at all. Just pretty innovation and people who like branded stuffs, will get them.

New Postage Rates in 2026

Sometimes i wonder besides our regular postage to send to people. If our bank letters sent to us, when Singpost raise the cost, will other cost raised up also just because they send us using local postage. I mean like above only indicate domestic mail with effect on 1st Jan 2026. Nowadays not much people sending via Singpost postage too anyways. 

Supply and Demand

Haha basically its part of a marketing gimmicks and just nice Prism had been paying much money to marketing. I personally tried their Prism Fan and its much worst than other traditional fan's brand. Kind of regretted it, but largely because it is much cheaper. Hence i had not been trying all of their products. But of course, each to their own. Just buy according to your expectation.

Choose Wisely and Be happy :O

In a nutshell, hope he have made the right decision, else it will be a painful journey later on. There are already several examples through friends that chosen this path and i bet some of them had happy and unhappy outcome. Similarly, not all women are good and bad also. So wish him good luck since it is highlighted openly in all social media.

Singapore Flyer Year End Family Bundle

Finally Singapore Flyer released the local Year End Family Bundle. So it is typically $80 for 2 adults and 1 child. Ticket holder must present NRIC and this is only available from 14 Nov 2025 to 4th Jan 2026. Although i had experienced this before many years ago, i want to bring my daughter to experience this. $80 is still steep, but at least it is still discounted as compared to the full price. 

No permits for Singaporean express buses in Malaysia

Haha now Malaysia Transport Minister also said that Singapore Tour Buses cannot run express services in Malaysia. Each country to their own. Unfortunately, these trends will extend as the next generations seems to be more protective and care for their own benefits instead of mutual benefits. 

Back to Blanco Court Prawn Mee

I'm back to Blanco Court Prawn Mee at Beach Road. My base order for the Pork Ribs Noodle is $7. Add noodle at $0.50, make it enough to fill your stomach. Also got my favourite fried crackers with the pink sauce. Now there is a person to reserve your table. The yellow noodle got a heavy alkaline taste. But overall, i give it a 6/10 as the soup have to be heavier.

New Ferry Route From Singapore To Gold Coast Bengkong

Yay ! Instead of Batam Centre, now there is another ferry route from Singapore straight to Bengkong which is close to all the tourist sites like the zoo, beach park, hotels, malls and many more. Round trip per pax will cost $76. But still expensive considered back in the past, this amount will include round trip ferry tickets, hotel stay and leisure bus tours. I mean, it is still an alternative for people who wants to visit Indonesia. 

Perodua QV-E [NEW]

Wow, Perodua is finally releasing their very own Malaysia's First Homegrown EV, Perodua QV-E. The launch price is RM80,000 without insurance and battery. It seems that they will be providing Battery as a Service. Haha they followed Cloud terminology. Battery costs RM275 per month. But one need to factor in that charging the battery is also additional cost like pumping petrol. Well, think its better to let more people do "trial" before thinking about riding it.

Singapore owes US for its success :/

Usually people won't say it so explictly about such sensitive issues. But well, though US had been helping partially, but all are through fair and mutual benefits. From the start, we all know that this guy is useless and its probably a yes man, nothing more and nothing less. Let's hope that after the US Presidency's expiry, trust and mutual benefits will restore for both Singapore and USA.
