Pre-Loved Item Donation - Pass It On

Festivals around the corner. I started declutter my home and kitchen for the Chinese New Year. Some of the items I have, still new or in good condition. Throwing it away seems a waste :(
Somehow, I came across a Pre-loved Item donation website – ‘Pass It On’.

'Pass-It-On' provides a web platform by channeling the donated items to the needy under the Voluntary Welfare Organizations (VWOs), examples, Family Service Centres and Senior Citizen Centres care. Anyone, within Singapore, can donate their pre-loved items, as long as the items are useful and of good working condition. 
It is a great way to recycle clothing, furniture, household goods, electronic devices, toys and books, while helping those in needs. Also a form of declutter your home. 
So, if you have old or unwanted items that are still in good condition, consider giving them to someone or  donating them to Pass It On.
Pass It On is a Central CDC initiative that allows the public to donate unwanted household items in good working condition to (VWOs). The site was managed by The Helping Hand.

Hey S'pore, We Are Prepared This Time

I believe this time round, all of us are geared with necessary preparation for haze. For those, not yet or not knowing what should be prepared. Fret not!

Read the earlier post - for necessary preparation. Stay pink and always be happy :). Remember to drink more fluids and have nice bath to fight humid weather. Invest one good fan to cool the room, it works! (Save electricity) Lastly, boil green bean soup to clear heatiness.
Easy to prepare & boil, aids in detoxification and cooling effect. Cheap and good.

My niece recommended me a pair of slipper ~ Havaianas. To me, it was just a pair of ordinarily slipper..... I tried her slipper. Humm...Better than my current slipper from GIANT..... (I hardly wear it as it cause friction and subsequently blister to my side of the toes and cost almost the same).

Havaianas slipper is light-weight and vibrant colours. Of cos, I am overwhelmed with spoilt of choices.



There's another design Havaianas - Fresh Look.

Hey S'pore

Having a weekend break is always luxury for 5-days office staff, but not with hazy sky! Yes, haze S'pore is back again. I believe you have read and heard from local news that the haze will be here for dayz.... Sign... I kept having irritation on my eye, nose and cough. Since the June episode, I bought two air ionizers for office and car after being introduced by good pal of the gadget. (Dr.USB Air Purifier Cleaner & Car Auto Anion Air Purifier). Stock-up the N95 masks, standard and those "breathable" type which will arrived next week. If you need those and still can find any, give us an email. (The market should be plenty by then, if not snap up). We also find update where you find those air purifiers and masks seller below)

HEPA Filter Purifier with Anit Virus

So, what good in those gadgets??

Most of the time, few colleagues entered office with strong cigarette odor. To non-smokers, it is unbearable and uneasy too. It is also "hard" for us to inform smokers that we need fresh air... (No hard feeling) Since, one of my good pal tested the gadget in the office. Well, it works! No more cigarette odor. Miracle!

When you want to get rid of new car smell, just, a small car anion purifier, works well.

Reasons I like this gadgets;

  • Simple and minial power consumption used
  • Powered by a small size and light weight
  • Economical 
  • Easy to carry
  • Zero maintenance
  • Vibrant colours (Blue, Green, Orange & Pink)
  • Produce cleaner air in environment for young children, older folks and WE!

Before I buy this gadget, I am amazed of its wonders... Something which I ever wanted to get - LED anion from Korea. Same technology. Watch this video here.
Demo on how Dr USB Air Purifier works
Otherwise, when you go outdoor, do wear a mask.
1) Simple mask
2) 3M face masks
3) 3M Nexcare comfort masks
4) Sports Mask with active carbon filter


Stay pink and away from haze. Remember to drink more fluids and have nice bath to fight humid weather. Get yourself one fan to cool the room, it works! Lastly, boil green bean soup to clear heatiness.
These events unfolds really tell us the environment is very fatigue and we can't take things for GRANTED!

Recently, I bought few innovative gadgets.....



Today, I boiled chicken soup using this samyetang packet...
Yummy! Taste good!

Shall continue with my chicken soup recipe someday....

Teen's Shopping Heaven

Where do teens shop today? Yes, majority in Qoo10. Formerly known as Gmarket, it was a very confusing shopping cart at the earlier launch. I used to think that, we are the savvy mummy that shop smart in Qoo10 but i was so wrong. I was chatting with my teenager niece and nephew the other day. They told me, they and most of their peers got most of their stuffs in Qoo10  The reasons, good bargain, detail info, easy to pay and shipped right to their doorstep. It is really a shopping heaven :)

My nephew asked me to buy one Fuji Polaroid camera as a birthday gift for him, it is the "IN-Thing" in his circle now. He said he done his homework, Qoo10 has the best deal, etc...

One of the Qoo10 Vendor Polaroid Camera


I recalled 30 years ago, Polaroid camera is the bulky and heavy (black casing), took photograph in black and white. That's real vintage. Now, the new Fuji Polaroid camera film comes with different colourful design and some with cute cartoon characters. Not only that, instant print-out with colour not the vintage black and white.


Other than the cameras, it is true that you can find numerous gadgets that are at very affordable price. Everyday, i will spend at least 5 ~ 10 minutes going thru the deals that Qoo10 send out in their newsletter. You will always find deals that you will be interested and the best of all, you just need to click onto the images and you be able to see, read reviews and buy it. :D

Here are some deals, that i find them more interesting and affordable than purchase in retail stores and trade fairs. If you have still wonder what is Qoo10, time to explore and sign up now. Qoo10 Address
