      NTU also holding a mini book fair, but it may be a bit too far for some of you.

      Sale: 1 book for $4 , 3 for $10
      Others: more than S$5

      Take bus 179 and alight at the Lee Wee Nam library.

        Time to burn a hole in the pocket again. No complaints because books are cheaper at the sale. Thanks, pen88n!

        despmom, very True!

        I went for the last Popular Fair, the stationary items are so much cheaper.
        But the problem is the queuing up to pay even though Popular
        have a lot of cashiers, the queue is super long.
        Are they clearing old stocks or what?

            alanchow76, this popular bookfest is a yearly affair at end of year for parents to stock up on assessment books for the next school year 😉

              hi phtthp

              Books on sale are more towards novels, stories,non-fiction & hobbies books. But not sure when the sale is ending.

              Alight at Lee Wee Nam Library bus stop and walk up two level of stairs to the level where NTU MacDonalds & Subway is located.

              Attached: map of NTU.
              Thanks. Hope that answers.

                In the Expo website, it was stated 10am-9pm for all 4 days... maybe can lookout for any changes/updates nearer to the fair.

                Does anyone know if tomorrow's Times book fair would start at 10am or 3pm?

                        Sorry if this has been asked before, would there be special members’ discounts/promotions on the Members’ Preview day of the Popular Fair at Expo next month? Thanks!
