Free Bucks to Exercise ??

The Prophet Muhammad (s) said: ““It is better for a leader to make a mistake in forgiving than to make a mistake in punishing.”
——— Al-Tirmidhi, Hadith 1011.


Yes ladies, you read it right! Sport Singapore has started this initiative for its members to live a healthy lifestyle. In order for this project to be a success, it has offered them with $100 worth of ActiveSG dollars upon every successful registration. Unfortunately, this free membership is only for Singaporeans and Singapore Permanent Residents. 

Wondering what this $100 ActiveSg dollars can be used for,  

• Swimming complexes and gym admissions
• Payment for ActiveSG programmes and activities (up to 30% of the programme price)
• Booking of ActiveSG sport facilities (excluding Dual-Use-Scheme / MOE facilities)
• Purchase of MyActiveGYM™ and MyActiveSWIM™ schemes
• Priority booking of facilities – 1 day in advance of non-members (All facilities booking policies apply)
• Complimentary trial classes
• Invitation to exclusive members' events
• Eligibility to purchase MyActiveGYM™ and MyActiveSWIM™ schemes
• Supplementary membership - parents/legal guardians can apply for supplementary membership for youths below 16 years of age.

Cool right!!

My friend just told me about this as you all know I am really a health conscious person and I am really trying hard to lose off my extra weight that I gained post pregnancy. I had to join. Duh!! Its free, who wouldnt :)

You could even download an app on your Iphone or Android to book programmes and pay for it with your ActiveSg dollars on the go.

Trust me its totally worth it. Exercising at no cost in a well equipped environment. I am totally in for this.

To know more about this ActiveSg  program, you may visit their website @ MYACTIVESG

They have made it possible in a way that everyone all over the island can enjoy the facilities of the public gyms, pools, facilities at ease. We can just top up with cash onto our ActiveSg once it finishes..

I encourage all my hijabi sisters, to not give reasons of having no time at all, but to step out and lead a healthy lifestyle. Eat right and Excersice right to see good results. It is never too late or early to start what is good for us and if it comes at no price, I say you should take this opportunity to start healthy. It may seem difficult at first but as soon as you get the hang of it, I am sure you would be in the right path to a healthy life.

Shopping for Free ???

Happy Sunday my dear ladies, 

Really wanted to write yesterday but I had my friend over and I had zumba and by the time i was back I was totally whacked out. I had a long hot bath and gave myself a good scrub and hair treatment that I am raving to talk about in the next post! I just laid back and watched a movie with my son. 

Today I am going to talk about what happened while I was out at Watsons drugstore last Wednesday. I had actually been reading a lot of reviews of Scholl's Velvet Smooth Electronic Pedi that I really needed to get one to get rid of my dead skin and cracks that I have been getting lately coz of the weather and post natal since I really hadnt had the time to groom myself with the manicurist. It costs SGD 39.90 which actually made me think a couple of times whether I really needed it and if it would work perfectly for me. Gave it a lot of consideration and made up my mind that I needed to get it asap.

So after work I headed over to the drugstore and bought a few stuff. While I queued up to make my payment, I handed over my POSB everyday credit card. POSB is a post savings bank in Singapore for those overseas readers. 

I usually keep this card for all my ticket booking and online transactions. One thing good about this card is that for every time we purchase, we end up with its equivalent rebate $$. I was aware of this but had no idea how much I have accumulated so far. But I never came around to using it before. So I completely forgot of such a thing and when I wanted to make my payment for those stuff with my credit card, the lady at the counter said that I have more than enough to buy the stuff I have chosen and I dont have to pay a cent. Free!! Oh yeah, this budget hijabi loves to hear about free stuff!!

You should have seen the gleam on my face like a child that saw cotton candy. I was smiling through the whole purchase and I was glad I didnt have to pay a single cent for the items I took.

So, if you gals are planning to get credit card, choose a one which has claimable rebate $$ so that we can spend on stuff on those rainy days.

You may get more information at POSB Everyday MasterCard

To check what else I bought, stay tuned for my next blogpost...

Sale...Sale...Sale

“God does not forbid you to be kind and equitable to those who have neither fought against your faith nor driven you out of your homes. In fact God loves the equitable.” Qur’an:60:8

I went to my old neighborhood yesterday. Its nostalgic when you have pleasant and sweet memories of a place where you once shared it with family and friends. It has just been less than 8 months since I moved into this new neighborhood and there already so many changes in my old one. We walked around downtown east ehub to find so many new shops. Since we went on a weekday afternoon, the place was quiet and very convenient for us to walk about.

Just as I was walking past a few shops, I noticed this factory outlet store which seemed to catch my attention with the "SALE" signs. 

Everything was going at "Buy one and get one free" and I was like Whaaaaattt!!?? Since I was with my other hub who was impatiently going elsewhere, I couldnt really browse that much. But a few outfits caught my eyes but i had already gone above my budget in splurging on stuff. 

Not all maybe fantastic but I am sure one or two outfits wont disappoint you. If you happen to be around the area, do give this place a browse. You might get lucky to find something you like. 

Love
