Air-conditioned street shopping, what else can you ask for? Miles & miles of shops on different levels, affordable, & under an air-conditioned roof. Need I say more? More

Packed out like sardines in a slowly moving tin. Take a good ground anchor if you want to stop and look at the traders gear. In summary its cheap souvenir stuff i.e. a snow dome of Singapore, yes i did buy one. More

I like shopping here because it is the only place I have been able to bargain! The experience is more like shopping at a market, which is a nice change from the malls. The quality is not the best but the prices are not high and it is a nice experience. More

When talking about budget shopping, Bugis is a popular choice for most people. But for me, it was not much fun. The style of the clothes were not so great... Somehow, I keep comparing it to TST in HK, and I had better picks there. For SG shirts to bring home as souvenirs, the prices are cheap, similar to Chinatown,... More

So many stalls in this crazy mall! It's so much fun to walk through the crammed together mini stores, selling everything from dresses and shoes to juices and cakes. Feels like Asia - whereas the other malls feel like North America! Both are fun to explore. More

Bugis is the ideal shopping paradise for those who can't affort to buy branded but yet hope to get something good but cheap. Recentle there was a lots of store selling clothers from China & Bangkok, the pattern and design are almost the same and not allow to try but due to the price are fairly resonable plaese don't mind...
