I Wonder How Retail Shops Survive

Last weekend suddenly thought of getting a wireless headphone so that I don't disturb wife and baby, these days they sleep early because baby have to wake up early for school. So went into Challenger to casual browse, saw this JBL Tune 500BT headphone, looks very nice and surprisingly not few hundred dollars, usually branded wireless headphone S$300-S$400 or more also have, review also seems pretty good, selling for S$89.90 for non-member price, I don't have their membership by the way. Almost wanted to buy but when I did a quick check on Amazon, it was 39.95 USD, around S$67.XX after delivery charge, wow around S$20 difference.

I also went to Lazada, some even selling for S$55.00 but ships from overseas, most probably is used, some is S$69, I guess those is they resell from Amazon, then some is S$

I'll sum up the key points in the FAQ provided by ICA so you don't have to go through one big page. Do let me know if I missed out anything or correction is required by dropping a comment. GENERAL LTVP+ will be in effect from 01 Apr 2012. LTVP+ holders will enjoy extended duration of residency, public healthcare subsidies and easier access to employment. No separate application required for LTVP+; an application for LTVP will automatically include your spouse for LTVP+, if eligible.

The ROM website did a really good job of putting together the information that you need in a well-organized manner. I've done it once and I think the guide is very easy to follow. The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop.
