hello mummies -
mic - i relocated toto (my beagle) back from Oz. paid his air ticket, no quarantine needed, as it's Oz. not sure abt tw though. you will need to get a cage for your cats to take the flight (cargo compartment) back. you also need to book their flight back to Sing. 7 cats - v ex le... toto's air ticket cost me about A$500.
Paula, what about using vpost for baby centre and gap? think most mummies go by vpost, uob card there is 10% off i think.
sunflower - ha ha.. will change to maltese... no wonder i felt like not right le...
lyn - re make up class - maybe check if you can do makeup at Spring leaf? so far, i have never missed any SM class. now that i have changed to Sat 2.30 slot... better for me. more conv... st from AD class...under same sensei as well.

Toto,
Thanks! I'm checking around to see who have a VPost account. If not, I will get my girlfriend to help me with the orders.
Eh, we have to pay for airfares for cats too? So, where will the cats be seated in the flight?

Mrs Chng,
How to cook couscous? My Turkish friend cooked for me last time and it tasted nice. But when I cooked, it tasted awful
rabbitkid,
Shichida no replacement class if it falls on public holiday.
Wen,
Oh.. no more replacement class
I am thinking when I go to KL next month, ask my mum to bring A back on Sat, then back to KL on Mon. I cannot come back cos I still have to attend course even on Sat and Sun
Secarly I miss him lots and fail my exams
Then got another weekend in August, I am attending seminar. I was thinking of asking for replacement on weekday
Else I gotta skip part of the seminar to attend Shichida...
mum2B,
ME! I haven't give salt and sugar to A
I told my parents that I will keep to this for 3 years
poohy,

My friend is the local distributor for this, but not cheap. The USD price multiply by 2.2.
Paula,
Shopping again ah... kekeke... this forum is like shopping forum already... hahaha... I gotta control already...

importing from taiwan needs quarantine checkout www.ava.gov.sg ... I wanted to import a show maltese from taiwan and america previously so I did some research about it. Australia and NZ dun need if I din remember wrongly. To import 7 cats should be quite exp i think.

shetland,
wow u use to show your shetland ah.... are u the handler also?
My maltese was supposed to be a show dog... but I showed him only once... and he was handled by his breeder at that time. His siblings are all show malteses... their father is Jellybeans (u heard of him)... so many of his offsprings became champions in the maltese category. I had wanted to import a very nice show maltese from USA previously... but like v exp leh... cost more than $10k... plus i think the quarantine may be bad for the dog..

Poohy: i heard of Jellybeans, saw him in the show ring as well.. Very famous in d dog show.. 
Yep, used to show Joelynn (shetland) in the show. I only handled her once or twice, it's my hubby who's d handler. Our shifu is krishnan, known as the Sheltie man as his shelties always get the top in Pastoral category.
Indeed, importing a show dog is very expensive, Even a Chinese Crested Dog of show quality cost around $20k+..
toto: u used to have shetland arr? I like beagle as well.. Next time, when Gabby is older, will get her a maltese or mini poodle.. hee
maybe get her a show dog in future n let her be junior handler.

shetland,
that's my plan too! I was telling my hb I will import a show maltese from either taiwan or usa when S&J are older, then get them to be a junior handler.. build confidence. I remember seeing a young girl who used to win the junior handler award... was always very impressed by her confidence.

shell, sunflower,
there is a base vpost charge. If you have more than one parcel, can combine and ship together to singapore using vpost and still get charge one time for that base charge only.
But for the parcel itself, there is a volumetric or weight charge.. depends on which is heavier. That's the part that can be costly becos.. even if our item is small, the supplier can send using a very big box... and then we kenna charged the volumetric weight charge. And if your item is OOS, they may send more than one parcel to vpost.
btw, UOB having discount on vpost charges... gotta use uob credit cards for vpost payment and may need to key in a discount code... can find out more from the mummies currently doing spree or checkout uob website.
When u place order with overseas site, send the invoice to vpost once u place order. Then vpost will lookout for your parcel and match them against the invoice.
normally shd not have any credit card issue unless u r saying that the overseas site only accept USA issued credit cards... in that case, gotta go for comgateway or vconcierge (vpost).

poohy,
Thanks for the explanation.
Cos I remember there were some issues with billing address must be USA. and credit card also need USA address.
So if I must inform my credit card bank to include the USA address which is the vpost USA address?
also what's comgateway or vconcierge (vpost)?
is vconcierge (vpost) same as USA vpost?
Thanks

sunflower,
oh I know what u mean now... hmm ok u can try using vpost address as the billing address. If they dun accept, then may need to see if you have friends in the usa which u can use their address instead. I normally put my hb's fren's addr in usa for this.
comgateway and vconcierge is actually used when the oversea site do not accept any other credit cards other than those issued by USA banks directly. Then we will need the comgateway/vconcierge to place order on the site on our behalf, paid using their credit cards... and we pay them.
I am not so sure abt the price comparison between the two though cos I only use vpostusa before... never had the need to use the concierge service.... but sites like POLO.com prob will need them.

http://ikea.com.sg/products/product_display.asp?id=3040 (bin to slot in casing, other sizes avail., lids separately)
Shelves instead of Bins avail. too.
I estimated before that it'd really cost alot to have enough trofast shelving for most of the toys, and a long length of wall. I might still use it when I reno my place end-year.
putting puzzles in plastic folders,
great tip, thanks! Will do that! In fact, I'd store box puzzles this way too, just cut out the picture to put in the folder... will save space and more organised, hmm.

sunflower,
I have the puzzle 1 and 7 and 8. I got the first one from a shop in IMM. And the other 2 from a shop in the basement at Forums. Actually the bulk purchase price is quite good i think... I remember I got the 2 smaller ones in Forums at more than $10 definitely. S was just playing with it yesterday... I am the one attracted to the bright colours.
shell,
I always put different billing and shipping address. No problem at all. I mean u can pay and buy a gift for someone right?

I thought the price was ok. saw some wooden puzzles at shops outside my place, very simple ones cost $15+! oh gosh, so that at $12.90/8.90 pretty reasonable and its so much more colourful
I like #1, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8, 12
I thought #1 is very good
But the BP require 35 pieces of each item, not sure will hit the base number
