My membership
with SMH http://www.singaporemotherhood.com
is almost 10 months already. Though that long months, I wasn’t got any post
with any thread nor creating my own topic. I didn’t even though that I was
already a member in this online community website till I tried to login my
username, and whoa it successfully logged in.
Browsing
around here gives you a wide array of topics regarding parenting/motherhood and
a lot more. I even let myself come into their Market Place group topic. I saw
there’s a lot of SPREE thread, posting here and there. Reading all the facts
where other mummies can post what products they want to purchase with other overseas
website.
Since Aleina’s
birthday is coming in 3 months time, I’ve tried to use one of the SPREE
organize by junetns in Party City. I navigate through http://www.partycity.com website and choose
what items should I need to order for my baby’s party. After I have come up
with my list, I send her an email about my order and pay via fund transfer
(ib). I was just fortunate that day coz that day got a 20% discount with
partycity and the junetns as an organizer, will place our orders before 11pm
that night. She placed my order in my behalf, coz there’s a restriction in this
thread where if a member joined in less than 1 year, s/he is not allowed to
post in any section of the MarketPlace.
The organizer
prompted us from time to time. She was good in handling our order and most
importantly she gave us the status update from time to time; from the moment
she placed the order, and from our orders to shipped to Singapore and up to the
collection.
When our
orders arrived in Singapore; almost 3 weeks from the date the order was placed.
It was in fact, on time. The organizer watsapp me to informed when to collect
my orders and how much $ do I need to topup for the shipping. Surprisingly I
still need to pay $26.36, as I think that it’s quite expensive coz my total
orders only worth $55 and most of it are just small items like stickers, banners,
swirl decorations, banner, scene setter etc. I just wonder how she calculated
my items though... Anyway, I’ll just charge it to my experience.
