      For Exam, DS is using Uni ballpoint pens and Pentel correction tape.


      For normal use, he prefers gel pen (Pentel or Uni), though I tried giving him some Faber Castell ballpoint pens I’ve gotten from a hotel I frequent for my business trips. Like what most of you have mentioned, correction tape usage cost a bomb (average 1 last about 1-2 weeks only). I’ve tried this XinYan brand from local ABC type of shop and so far it is ok - tapes does not get tangled halfway and coverage ok. Not as good as the expensive brand, but who cares for normal use. Cost about $1 for a pack of 1 + 1 refill.

                  DS has a IHHO (not IMHO)....special pen from FT and says it is charmed with good luck as it did for students last year....refused to let me or his younger bro to use it....each child has his/her special way to help bring psychological effect and hopes it works sparkles for his this year too :love: πŸ™

                    Pen88n, care to share which part of AMK or TP you know has this ABC shops, sounds like $$ can be saved by 'shopping' in ABC shops

                      AMK one is the corner shop next to hawker centre that is a little off-central nearer to Courts / library / SingPost side. It is at the block opposite a row of shops with Banquet Coffee Shop and Verve Music Centre.

                      TP is I think at the row of shops opposite Song & Song. Not sure exact location.
