Wow, quite pricey but it IS nice!


Our DD2's new Deuter was $109 but with some $20 or $30 mall voucher hubs got from work (his company's way of awarding diligent staff)... we got the bag for cheaper than its original price. :boogie:

Daughter's teacher said to bring 12 color pencils to cut down on weight of bag...but daughter insisted on 24. Then she has separate case for her erasers, pencils, ruler and stapler...not to forget her 'personal' case for cute plasters, tissue and wipes :faint:


Oh yes, I bought 2 school bags when I bought Bata school shoes from Taka. The one for girls this year has a nice shade of pink...couldn't resist. :evil:

Anyone wants to recommend any good liquid paper? This is because I've used those rollers type, find that they spoiled easily. Wonder is it something wrong with me? Is it that I've used too much force when pressing it down? :?

[Mychildren]

Nowadays, should be called correction tape.

Liquid paper is history...now is correction tape. My son scratched his head when I asked for correction fluid. For correction tape, either I press the wrong button or hold wrong side up, the words don't get erased off...my son will be laughing his head off :spank: stationery is too modern now, but correction tape is much better bcos don't have to wait for it to dry...this mountain tortoise has to catch up :stupid:

Think I know what's my problem with the correction tape. I apply force at the wrong direction and how my hand holds the correction tape counts in too. :oops:

Plum_cake.. no need to being the old slip-in covers down to shops. They are numbered. If I'm not mistaken those bigger sized text/work books are size 118. Normal neighborhood shops sell them too. Some even hv thicker variations than those at Popular. You know those in like Basic Point stationery shops within those small market-shpg-ctrs.. They hv a few outlets ard the island.

tHANKS bUDS!
118 is for CME and 119 for science works text/work books. Thanks again for the size. now I know.
I got it from Popular B.Besah.The staff at pop quite familier with the sizes. they helped me to get the correct sizes. Known devil mah!, Basic Point is in woodlands. those days in AMK I know a shop called Sembawang book shop where I bought covers for my books. mm now I am also getting old...
you are right, the popular one is a bit thin, and the joins are coming off very quickly too.
