Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer is probably an impulse buy because I saw an offer that is too good to resist over at r/RayBanStories.
Using coupon code 3008997, I got a 35% discount on the Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer on the official ray-ban.com website. The discount varies depending on what model you choose.
I chanced upon some site (I can’t recall what site it was) post on a pre-order for the Youtooz Collectibles: Futurama Take My Money Fry figurine. And I told myself, I need to get that figurine. So, I pre-ordered it back in March 2024, and it finally shipped in August 2024.
Youtooz Collectibles – Futurama Take My Money Fry – Transparent Protective Case
After more than five long years with my eero (first generation), I finally got around to upgrade it to eero Pro 6 which supports wi-fi 6.
I got the 3-pack eero Pro 6 for US$389 (S$535) as there was a discount a few weeks back. If not, the usual price is US$599 (S$823). Since eero doesn’t ship to Singapore directly, you must go through a freight forwarder. In my case, I am using my usual HopShopGo. Shipping to Singapore is an additional US$55 (S$76), which excludes the 7% GST you have to pay since the item and shipping exceeds S$400 in value.
After bricking my Nest Hello, I decided to get the Eufy Video Doorbell 2K (Wired) from Eufy US Website. I chose Eufy after reading Domotics review on Eufy Doorbell 2K (Wired). The author, Mike, also encountered the same thing with his Nest Hello Doorbell (Wired). He eventually gave up and bought a Eufy Video Doorbell 2K (Wired). So I thought, it works for him, it should work for me.
I paid US$115.48 (S$156) for the Eufy Video Doorbell 2K (Wired). That is after a US$40 discount from their retail price of US$155.48. Shipping from my freight forwarder, HopShopGo, to Singapore is an additional US$19.96 (S$27) via DHL.
Bought the Google Nest Hub (2nd Generation) from a Lazada store named Project KR for S$99.99 during their flash sale on 9th September 2021. Shipping is free since I have collected the free shipping voucher. If not, it will be S$1.49.
For S$99.99, it is an excellent deal since, in the US, it is already selling for US$99.99, and you have not factored in shipping to Singapore yet.
Bought the Google Home Hub during Black Friday as Google is having US$50 off the retail price of US$149.
I did not get the Google Home Hub from Google US Store as the chances of my order going through is close to zero. Similar to the Google Home Mini that I got for Black Friday last year, I got it directly from B&H Photo Video. They have the same promotion as Google US Store.
They do ship directly to Singapore for an additional US$9.28 (S$13). However, I opt to ship it to my freight forwarder, HopShopGo as I have other packages there.
