Celebrate the Holidays at Philatelic Store @ GPO

Christmas is coming~!
The Paya Lebar SingPost Centre has completed its renovations, and has opened with a lot of awesome restaurants, a beautiful movie cinema, and... Gongcha reopened today!!! If you're going there specially to get the bubble tea, pop over to the Philatelic Store :) 

The first time I went there after the renovations were completed was when I urgently needed to send a delivery via Speedpost to Thailand. The post office these days have really come a long way from how they used to be! They are so high tech with queue numbers and modern decorations. Though of course there are still lots of old school post offices around like Lim Ah Pin Road, Pasir Panjang etc if you want to go back and relive the old days. 

The Philatelic Store is operated and owned by Singapore Post, so the designs are authentic, and the commemorative stamps etc that you purchase from the store are completely authentic. 

As you can see in the video, the Philatelic Store @ GPO is really beautiful! I saw lots of ladies taking photographs with this Christmas display because it is so instagram-worthy.

And Singaporeans are forever winter and snow deprived.

There's currently a contest where you can guess the number of snowflakes in the store and stand to win $300 in shopping vouchers! 

Technically I've taken a video of the store for you, so you can always scan the QR code from the picture in this blogpost and try your luck if you want to cheat xD.
​
It's a multiple choice option so its not that bad since you don't have to pluck the number from thin air.  

The Philatelic Store @ GPO offers a comprehensive range of Singapore and Foreign stamps, Thematic MyStamp, Souvenirs and Philatelic Gifts that are available exclusively in-store. ​Every item in the store marks a special moment in Singapore's history. 
​
Since they are commemorative, have collector value, and are of exquisite designs, the collections and gifts make perfect presents for all occasions like business gifts, a memory lane souvenir, a philatelist's personal collection etc.

At the Philatelic store, a colonial-era red pillar posting box has been restored, and mail dropped into this posting box will be postmarked with a special date stamp in red ink!!! How special is that? 
​
​I took the chance ​to mail out the cards that I had written, might as well isnt it? xD
