For children's books, e promo is $3/bk for US$3.99 and below category.. $5/bk for US$4.99-US$6 category (or $20 for 5 books)....etc. It is same as the last MPH bookfair promo.


The queue was very long when i was there... consistently more than 100 pax in the Q and they only hv 4 cashiers...I waited at least 45mins...
Selection wise, i find more chapter books than picture books (for preschoolers).
And like what hquek mentioned, mostly fictional books, hardly see any non-fictional ones except the usual Usborne series.

Yup, agree :hi5:

[quote=\"hquek\"]The bookfair will only start at 3pm. So far, past sales have been quite alright but it depends on what you want to get. MPH is better for fiction titles.

There is MPH bookfair!!!

I will be at bedok area. Will drop by in a while.

I have to stop buying more books - running out of space to \"hide\" them :oops: ! Will go nag DD to let go more of her series :slapshead: so that can find shelf space :evil: ![/quote]

June don't hv meh? I thought they had a month long store wide discount 20%? I remembered how my child and me would send the entire weekend afternoons straight for a month in popular book shops choosing the books and queuing to pay...

Oh, I'm referring to the 20% discount coupon cut out from their bi-monthly magazine. It gives discount to other stuff (with conditions and exceptions attached) besides books.

Been to mph fair. Heng ar… Left with only a bag of books! But then, managed to lug another big bag at robinsons expo sale. It’s so crowded today. The car park lots were almost full when we arrived.
