How To Find the Best Airline Ticket Price

TODAY, finding cheap airfare is important to almost all travelers. The best website for cheap airfares depends very much on your circumstances. There is not really one “best” website that covers everything. Your departure location, destination, and memberships in various groups and organisations all factor in when it comes to finding the best deal. The Internet is the place to shop around for the cheapest airline ticket available.

There are some online classifieds sites like 88DB.com’s Travel advertising category, and comparison-shopping websites that generally make good starting places search for cheap airfares: Expedia, Travelocity, and Orbitz. All three access all the different airlines and allow you to compare prices for your trip if you fly at different times and with differing numbers of stops. The best discount airline ticket price you’ll find is on the Internet.

There are also different features available on these sites to help you locate cheap airfare. Both Expedia and Travelocity offer the ability to look at prices for flying on different dates.

How to shop for a “perfect” pair of jeans

It may be a myth, a perfect pair, but here are some tips to bring you closer to that find
By Ronald Wan

Don’t just marvel at the brand and check if the zipper works. Know the right fit when you shop for a pair of jeans.

Jeans is no longer simply a pair of trousers made from denim. It has become a fashion icon and an apparel staple for everyone. In fact, most of us wear it every other day. We wear it to school, to the workplace, to parties, to restaurants, and heck, even to sleep (usually after a drunk night out).

And since we see and wear jeans everyday, we might forget how to wear them right. It isn’t just a case of slipping into a pair of jeans picked from the wardrobe when you can’t find anything to wear. Jeans have different cuts and fits because we have different body types. The jeans need to fit not just the waist but also the thigh and the backside (yes, we need to flaunt the ass).

Hence, the fitting (pun intended) question here is not, “Do you own a pair of jeans?” but “Do you own the right pair of jeans?”

Orchard Road’s best-kept secret shop – yet

Get your cutest knick knacks here this weekend
by Mavis Ang

IF YOU’RE looking for a bookstore along Orchard Road, only two names come to mind: Borders and Kinokuniya. Too predictable? The quintessentially quirky shoppers can now forget about those two because there’s WoodWould.

“We wanted it to feel like your grandmother’s house, where you can find all sorts of hidden treasures,” WoodWould owner Grace Ng quips. “You know how most bookstores are pretty standard and boring? We tried as much to stay away from that idea.”

Most of WoodWould’s products are imported from USA, Japan, and Korea, so you can feast your eyes on unique journals, planners, graphic books and cards, and gift items which previously could only be bought online.

When it comes to indie brands and items, most Internet-savvy Singaporeans would go to online shops and pay costly shipments. Now that WoodWould has brought in unusual stationery for all to see, touch, and feel, shoppers can now buy them over the counter easily.
