Food & Electronics Fiesta

Got this mailer for 美食电器节 (Food & Electronics Fiesta) in the post a few days ago.

I wasn't expecting to find anything but I browsed through it anyway. Surprise surprise - look what I spotted at the back! There isn't a model number but it sounds like the Toshiba Android TV (47L5450) that I've been eyeing since October last year when it was first released. (>3<) ~♥

Based on the online research and recce that I've done since then, Mega Discount Store would have the lowest price at $839 (inclusive of free delivery) if I bought it online from their Rakuten store, with the 15% + additional 5% MasterCard discount every Tuesday. Next up would be Mustafa at $854 (inclusive of $25 for delivery). It comes with 3 years local warranty, a free Android air mouse and a HDMI cable. (Price as of December 2014) 

Now, if this is really the model that I have my heart set on, then $698 would save me at least $141! How can I not make a trip down to Expo for such a great deal?!

And so, my Saturday will be a busy one. The bf and I will be heading to Sembawang in the early afternoon for a baby shower (his good friend's baby). After that, we are off to Yishun in the late afternoon to collect some wall stickers for my new place (more on that once I've gotten them). And to top off the day, we'll be going down to Expo for my TV (I'd be totally bummed if that's not the model I wanted though, boo).

Positive thoughts! And good night!

Update: Cheap sales gimmick! Besides the fact that it was a lower end model (47L2450) - the list price at the booth ended up being $799, not $698! :( I also popped into the other hall which was having a Home & Furnishing fair since I was already in the area, but the items there were almost as dismal as the ones in the Food & Electronics one! Moral of the story - don't waste your time with these Expo fairs cuz there are usually way better prices out there! And without the need to travel even!
