[quote=\"TheAnswer\"]Today is my first n last visit to Big Box. Nothing much there.

Really? I go only to its supermarket on the ground floor.
My preferred supermarket is still Fairprice.

Supermarkets are everywhere. Too much hassle for us to go all the way there to get groceries. If we stay in Jurong, maybe. I prefer NTUC and Isetan supermarket [/quote]i'm lazy to go to town. phobia for crowds...unless i'm craving for ayam penyet at lucky plaza.

My DH works around there and in fact likes the whole place so much. He was lamenting that we should have gotten a place there instead of the east of Singapore.

This is exactly how I felt too when I visited the mall 2 weeks ago.

I just wonder how long they can survive if they believe their concept works with shoppers.

Not very long I guess. I can literally count the number of people there.

I've yet to visit big box.

If you like to buy in bulk esp for seafood, I think you will be thrilled on the selection available.

Good for CNY stock up.

if he/you folks have been living in the east for years, you all probably won't get used to the west. It's just different, I can't describe.

I lived in the west for more than 10 years though but chose to move out when I got married.

Everything there seems newer, cleaner, more spacious. More character as well. Things in the west seem more grey and drab. Maybe because I associate it with factories and industrial parks.

Things are changing though. Many things happening in Jurong area. So it's getting better.

Same sentiments. I just feel gloomy when driving around west coast area. Can't explain why
