And since sharing is caring, you can also share these deals on social networks such as Facebook or Twitter. For the foodies, there's also the gastronomic DBS Indulge (for both Apple iOS and Google Android) which focuses on the best food deals out there. |

Armed with all that deals, it's time to dash through the packed malls and collect on those deals. Shopping malls, however, can be a massive labyrinth that'll confuse you to no end. So you'll have to be prepared, by downloading the Go! Shopping app which displays a detailed layout of the mall for you to navigate. You'll also get more out of this app with detailed information on stores and promotions, giving you more shops to explore in your journey across the malls of Singapore. |

Go! Shopping is great, if you are a shopping mall hopper. But, if you have a favorite mall, certain malls do have their dedicated apps. One such example is Paragon, which highlights their latest promotions, store listings and even car park charges for the up-market shoppers. If Paragon isn't your cup of tea, there are many more to explore, such as Ion Orchard and Wisma Atria. |
