18% off + 5% Rebate + Cashback + Free shipping

2 months back, I was googling for a wine that I like and found an online market/shop selling the wine at a reasonable price.

They were also offering free delivery and promotion code for first time customer, 10% off. (read on to find out how you can get 18% instead of 10% off!)

Felt like I need to share this because it's like another supermarket but with free delivery and lots of perks which I'm sure most of my friends/readers/followers would be interested in!


They sell all sorts of stuffs, like can food, noodles, beer, wine, toys, books, electronics, appliances, car stuffs, baby stuffs, household stuffs and many more.

To get 18% off, register for an account using this linkhttp://bit.ly/3774yeq and you will get a 18% Off coupon.

When you spend a min of $150 in a month (no need to be in 1 order), you will receive a 5% rebate on the amount you spend. The rebate amount would be credited next month and you can just deduct the amount on your next order. Best is there's no min spend to use the rebate!

Shopback offers 2% cashback for this online shop so do sign up for an ShopBack account and click thru shopback before you make payment for your order!


I wasn't introduced by anyone so I only used the welcome 10% off my first order. A pity cause I spent a lot! So if you're interested to get 18% off, do remember to use my link : http://bit.ly/3774yeq to register!


P.S: I spent hours comparing prices of many products, some same as most other shops, some cost a little bit more and some are cheaper even before I used the promotion code!

3rd Order from Iherb + My first Popping Popcorn Experience

Not too long ago I blogged about my current new favourite online shop?
Yes this is the 3rd order I was talking about! :D

Again, this is not a paid/sponsored post, however if you use the coupon code that I will be providing I do get some form of rewards. The coupon code TBC541 gives you discount of up to $10.00 off your first order!


I love receiving parcels, it's like receiving presents!

Ordered on 17th March.
Shipped out on 19th March.
Arrived at my house on 24th March.



This time I bought a bunch of snacks/supplements!
For purchase above $40 there's a 5% discount.
In total I paid USD41.33 (SGD58.96) for this order.



Nature's Way, Fenugreek Seed, 610 mg, 180 Capsules
Nature's Way, Blessed Thistle Herb, 100 Capsules

Many mummies mention that these seeds/herbs are milk boosters so I thought I should order them to try. Fenugreek seed is retailing in most places at around SGD14-SGD18 per bottle, purchased on iherb at only SGD11.68 (before discount). Blessed Thistle is retailing at around SGD10-SGD16 per bottle, pursed on herb at only SGD8.53 (before discount).

Currently these 2 supplements are entitled to volume discount of 10-15%, so if you intend to purchase more bottles it will be even cheaper!



Barbara's Bakery, Snackimals, Animal Cookies, Chocolate Chip, 6 Bags, 1 oz (28 g) Each

Bought this for my girl as her snack in school from a shop nearby before and it's quite nice. Bought through Iherb for SGD6.94 for 6 packs. Not cheap but oh well she doesn't have cookies that often...



iHerb Goods, Day & Night Pill Organizer

This is what I choose for the trial item. Only paid SGD0.71 for this and I think it will be used well. :D



Jarrow Formulas, Organic, Extra Virgin Coconut Oil, 16 oz (454 g)

SGD16.95 (before discount) Bought this because some mummies recommend using this for many purpose. You can use it to bake, use it to apply to hair/skin etc and it's apparently another milk booster. So yeah I'm going to use it to bake! :D

The first thing I used it for is to pop popcorns though! Hee Hee.



Nairn's Inc, Oat Cookies, Dark Chocolate Chip, 7.1 oz (200 g)

I love cookies and I love dark chocolate. :D Oat cookie is also known as a milk booster so yeah it seems like a good enough excuse to buy it? SGD5.68 (before discount)

Okay this photo totally didn't do the cookies justice!
It's delicious and I will purchase again, in fact I am putting it in my shopping cart right now so when I order my 4th iherb order I will remember to purchase it! :P





I have been wanting to purchase this for a really long time. Like since I bought the happycall pan a few years back? lol. SGD5.59 (before discount).

A day after receiving my parcel I decide to pop the popcorns haha. First batch I used olive oil, second batch I used coconut oil. Coconut oil is quite nice and both times I didn't use much oil so it doesn't feel oily at all! Super healthy and at the same time it's satisfying!


My first Popping Popcorn Experience

Spread 1-2 teaspoon of oil on pan (butter works too I think.)

My happy call pan the magnet come out already. -.-'

Once the oil is hot, put in the corns and wait for it to pop.
After it starts popping you can shake it a little so that it doesn't get burn.
When no more popping sound can be heard, you can  pour out the popped popcorns in a huge bowl.


Popping popcorn is really fun and it's simple too! :)

Just a bit of popcorn and I get 1 big bowl of fresh fluffy popcorn. :D

The popping sound can be quite scary so do keep little kids away.
I was so scream-y when I opened the lip before the popping was done haha.

Review : Clothes Folding Board



Item : Clothes Folding Board
Price : $6.50 not including postage.


Product Review :
I've seen this product many times but never though of purchasing it as it looks bulky and it wasn't cheap. When I saw that it's available for only $6.60 I decide to purchase it.


Application :
Easy to use! They include an instruction sheet with the board so that you can follow the instruction to fold all types of clothes. Tops, Dress, Long Pants and Long Sleeve Tops!

Colour :
Didn't get to choose the colour, but it's least of my concern cause I am not displaying it haha just take out to use when I need to fold clothes..


Extra detail :
Folding clothes becomes easier and the thing that I like most is that now my cupboard looks a little bit neater! I have many clothes with different cutting and no matter how I fold them, they always end up different size, making the clothes pile really ugly. With this folding board my clothes dun topple so easily when I put them in a stack anymore and because it's neater it's quite easy to spot the different clothes too!

Love it!

My new favourite online shop!

This post is about my second order.
As I am writing this post my 3rd order is on it's way.. :P

There's so much I want to rave about this shop and no this is not a paid/sponsored post, however if you use the coupon code that I will be providing I do get some form of rewards. The coupon code TBC541 gives you discount of up to $10.00 off your first order!


My current favourite online shop is the awesome iherb.com!


Located in the US however not to worry cause shipping to SG is actually quite affordable!

I paid USD4 for shipping this big box of items!
Really affordable right?
It's even cheaper than most door-to-door courier in SG!

Only USD4 you must be thinking the delivery confirm took very long and there's no tracking right?
Sorry to break it to you.. It took less than a week for these lovelies to be delivered to my doorstep!
and tracking code is available once they shipped out. Having a tracking code that I can track online is very helpful! I can keep checking on the status so I would roughly know when to be home for delivery!

Ordered on 28th Feb.
Shipped out on 2nd March.
Arrived at my house on 5th March!


Next I want to talk about their products. :D

If you have walked into any of those "health shops" or shops selling organic stuffs you will know that these imported organic items are usually very pricey. After the birth of my cutie pie, I start to be more wary of the items I am using on/around or giving to my child. I cut down on processed food and try to give her as much fresh food as possible. Toddler snacks / kids safe cleansers are either too expensive or difficult to find in Singapore, so when I found this online shop it's like finding gold!



This is my 2nd order. I will roughly describe the items I bought and why I bought them.
The reason why I don't want to talk about the first order it's because it's mainly essential oil and I don't want to talk about EOs. So yups here goes.. :D



BabyGanics, The Grime Fighter, All-Purpose Cleaner, Lavender, 32 fl oz (946 ml) (Discontinued Item)

I bought this product when my cutie pie had a bit of eczema and I wanted something good, safe and non toxic to clean the house and when I saw the last bottle at kiddy palace, I bought it. Halfway through the bottle I find that it's very helpful in cleaning up messes and I use it all the time to clean toys, floor, tables, her play area and even walls! Unfortunately after that bottle I can't find this exact same product all over SG anymore. :( When I saw that iherb is selling this I order it immediately! After they send out my order the product is discontinued! Now I'm down to this last bottle I hope it can last me long enough till I find another good product.

Price wise on herb it's less than S$10 (SGD6.99) but when I bought at kiddy palace it cost me around $17+-.

Sierra Bees, Organic Lip Balms, Variety Pack, 3 Pack, 0.15 oz Each

I bought this under the product trial and this pack of 3 only cost me USD1 ! If I didn't remember wrongly 1 piece cost around $4 in SG shops! iherb have this product trial listing page that with every order you can purchase 1 product trial item. Some items are tester size, some are full retail sizes, example there's a tea sample pack that has 3 different tea bags and that only cost $0.10, then there's this pack of 2 facial mask sheets for only $0.50.

---

Method, Glass + Surface, Natural Glass Cleaner, Mint, 28 fl oz (828 ml)

Bought this to try out cause I have some dirty windows and Mirrors at home. :P
Cost S$6.95 on local website, on iherb it's USD3.82 (approx SGD5.29).
Used it almost immediately and I love it. It cleans well and the minty smell is quite refreshing too.

---

ATTITUDE, Floor Surfaces, Tiles & Wood Cleaner, Citrus Zest, 35.2 fl oz (1.04 L)

Bought this to try out mainly because I have wooden floors at home and this cleaner is suitable for both tiles and wood. I wouldn't recommend to purchase this from iherb though cause I just found out that it's cheaper in some of the online shops in SG. Googled and there are shops selling this at SGD7.50 (not including postage though) and I paid ard SGD8+ (after discount).

---


Peanut Butter & Co., Smooth Operator, Creamy Peanut Butter, 16 oz (454 g)

I love peanut butter and saw a friend instagram-ed this so I bought it. Love it! :D
Comparing to my usual peanut butter this one feels less sweet (I could eat a huge spoonful of it on a slice of bread and not feel like it's sinful or what.. Price wise it's slightly more expensive than my usual peanut butter but I feel that it's still quite worth it. :D

---

Earth Mama Angel Baby, Organic Milkmaid Tea, Fragrant Fennel Herb, Caffeine Free, 16 Tea Bags, 1.23 oz (35 g)

Recently decide to re-lactate so decide to purchase this to try. Most SG shops selling at around $7.90-$12.50 per box! It's only around SGD6.91 on iherb and currently for Earth Mama Angle Baby products they have this volume discount, like if you purchase 2 for 10% discount, purchase 4 for 12% discount or if you are drinking it very often or you want to share the already super low shipping with other mummies you can purchase 12 boxes for 15% discount!

---

Chocolove, Almonds & Sea Salt in Dark Chocolate, 3.2 oz (90 g)

I bought this as a gift for my husband but I got a bite and I love it! It's not sweet, not really bitter and not very salty, somehow just perfect for me. I love it and would probably purchase it again with my 4th order?

---

Those who knows me, knows that I'm a sucker for free gifts and so far with every order from iherb, they will include a little gift with the order. For my first order they gave me a letter opener, for this second order they gave me a bookmark that can be used as a ruler. Can't wait to see what they are giving me for my next order. :P


Just a reminder if you are a new customer, do remember to use this coupon code TBC541 to get your discount! You will save USD5 on your first iHerb order (regardless of order amount!)
If your order totals $40 or more, you will save USD10! and if you purchase above $40 you will get an additional 5% discount on top of the USD10 off!


Enjoy shopping! :D

Adv : Efevshop (Baby Crochet Items and Pacifier Clips)

One of the perks with having a baby is that you have a life doll that you can dress up!


Take a look at this photo and tell me it didn't melt you?
This set is so cute! If my next kid is a girl I think I would want to get this!



Baby boots! Totally adorable!


These Hats and Beanies are so cyoot!
They are great for shielding our little one's head from all those cold aircon in bus/malls/clinc!



The deal about handmade items is that you usually get to customise it according to your preference!

Like the colour/type of yarn used!

I love pastel colours!


Many people says there isn't much accessories for kids, actually there are!
You can get headbands/hats/beanies for them and if they take pacifier you can get them Pacifier Clips with these really pretty Straps!




Crochet items are quite rare in my opinion cause you seldom find them in shops, even if you manage to find them the designs available are really few! Most shops only carry like 1 or 2 designs and sometimes the colours or design doesn't really please us.

If you're looking for a full month baby gift set, or maybe some pacifier clips as little gifts, or even a cute little crochet dress/romper/blanket for your little one (super cute to wear for baby photoshoot!), do check out www.facebook.com/efevshop/ ! :)

Review : La Riche Directions Semi Permanent Hair Dye Rose Red


Price : $9 only! (CNY Promo, if I'm not wrong it's still on-going!)


Service Review:
The items were sent out timely and nicely bubble wrapped. I bought 3 tubs of hair dye they only gave me 1 pair of plastic gloves.


Product Review :

Application :
Fairly easy, I put on my gloves and grab some from the tub and just smear it all over my bleached hair. The only issue I had was after I washed out I realise the colour stained the back of my neck, parts of my forehead, all my fingers, a hair brush, 3 towels and my bathroom turned pink!

Colour :
I love it! It's pinkish kind of red and the brightness is just right. I am also happy that my hair didn't look orange. Phew..

Smell / Effect :
No smell, or not much smell. Effect is not bad it's been a week plus and the red is still in my hair. Some people claims that it's conditioning but I personally feels that it feels normal? Just not too drying like some of those hair dye packs that contains bleach in it?


Extra detail : If possible get someone to help you with application and maybe wash off too cause it's really messy imo. Maybe I just dun have skill to dye my own hair, I would probably try to get help when I use the tub of Dark Turnip that I bought. :D


The additional sad story:


Last December I tried this hair dye (in violet) without bleaching my hair and the result was my previous salon dyed brown hair got even darker, almost close to black. The saddest thing is that I bought it from an instashop at $26.90! Super overpriced and I didn't know it cause the seller didn't state the brand and yes the seller is quite a popular seller on instagram. *heartbreak*


Do you like my Red Hair? Would give this a try?

Review : Dodo Liquid Lipstick, Dodo Eyeshadow and Dodo Pan Cheek


Items :
Dodo liquid lipstick shade 203
Dodo miss brown eyeshadow MB710
Dodo pan cheek PC23

Price : All 3 dodo products only cost $13 from TokyuHands (Westgate).

Dodo is a Japanese Brand. Didn't see them in Singapore for quite sometime so when I saw that they were on sale I decide to get them to try. :D

Product Review :
As there are 3 items I will try to keep it short.



Application / Colour :

Lipstick : It's somewhat like lip gloss, easy to use. Just twist the bottom and the liquid will come out from the top. Colour is light and with a shimmer. Texture is thick like a usual gloss & I have a love hate relationship with lip glosses. Love it cause it makes my lips pouty and sweet looking, hate it cause it's usually feels kinda like a layer on my lips?

Eyeshadow : Would suggest to use your own brush cause the brush given is not that good. Colours are shimmery/glittery. Colours in pan are different when applied, refer to photos of swatches (with flash and without flash). Kinda regret getting this colour, should have gotten the purple/pink one instead.

Blush : Easy application but have to be light handled unless you want to look like you are going for some show. Colour is very pigmented so a little drab and blend it out for a more natural blush.


Removal :
Easy to remove using makeup remover but the glitters for the eyeshadow kinda stuck to me for a while.


Extra detail : Do take note that expiry is in Dec this year.



Overall it's okay to purchase these to play around for a while cause it's quite cheap. My eyeliner from another brand cost more than these 3 items combined!

Review : Gatsby EX Hi-Bleach (Hair Bleach)


Item : Gatsby EX Hi-Bleach
Price : $8.95 (NTUC promo) usual ard $11.

Product Review :
I have tried many diy hair dyes but this is the first time I tried bleaching my hair on my own.

Application :
Fairly easy but I think I should have used 2 boxes instead of 1. After mixing everything just apply on dry hair and wait. Rinse, wash with shampoo, followed by conditioner.

Colour :
Didn't reach the lightness that I want as I don't dare to leave the bleach any longer. Heard that if put for too long duration, hair will break very easily. Tone is yellow so I will be using a white toner to remove the yellow tone soon!

Smell :
Strong but bearable (rememeber to open windows so that it's well ventilated)

Extra detail : Ensure that you buy enough hair dye. eg should hair length usually need around 2 boxes, unless you are doing dip dying.

It's my first time bleaching on my own, though the effect is not exactly what I want but it's still acceptable. Hair looks really dry so I will probably also need to do some treatment at home too. ♡

Review : Electronic / Digital Kitchen Scale (Weighing Scale)

Item: Digital Kitchen Scale
Price: S$9.90

Service Review: Super fast delivery! I received it the next morning!

Product Review: Scale comes in a box and comes with 2 batteries.

Usage: 1 button switch on, simple and easy.

Extra detail: There are a few designs and I choose this as it can measure to 0.5g where most other designs measure to 1g. The only downside is that it can only measure up to 3kg but it's okay as I usually do not need to weigh more than that, any item more than 3kg I have a few other scales at home for that. :D

This is good for those who are baking or those selling small items online and need it to weigh parcel! :)
