This year’s SiteX was held at the Singapore Expo on 29th Nov to 2nd Dec. AS always, Sitex is a blast to head to basically of its year-end promotions. Thanks largely to the bonuses we got, the clearance of goods and also sale launch of next year’s items were indeed a sight to behold. However, the crowd is getting more and more each year. Parking was a nightmare as people illegally parked along the whole stretch of the road. Movement was slow and one has to have an acquired sense of patience to manage the chaos. Certainly, the organisers have to review this problem although it didn’t help that there was also a John Little Clearance Sale. But it was all worth the trouble as the sales and offers never disappoint. Ranging from monitors, tvs, printers, laptops, desktops, game consoles, handphones associated with big brands such as Sony, Canon, Nikon, Asus, Lenovo, HP, Compaq, Samsung, Xbox and many more.
Indeed, i myself have bought a couple of items.
- 3 Digital Cameras
- 1 Printer
- 2 Thumbdrives
Here are a few tips when heading for a computer exhibition.
- Have a list of what you would like to buy; not having one causes a tendency to overspend and splurge.
- Do a review or read up on several of the items before heading to the exhibition. Not only will it speed things up, it also ensures you know the capability of the item.
- Look out for promotions and sales. Enquire the service staff about deals. Also, try to bargain for a lower price or even extra free goodies. Promotions changes on different days and they are more likely to let go of things when it’s on the last day.
- Enjoy the crowd and expect to be bumper back to back.
