There are two types of shoppers in Singapore: the one who look for good deals and the one who look for the best deals.
The latter group hunts for the best deals, and checking for these fabulous deals has become a habit: they obsessively follow deal-based Facebook Pages, never miss an Instagram post from “deal influencers” and log in to the Goody Feed app and Shopee app to scroll through all the best-est offers at exactly 12:00 p.m every day without fail.
We have one of these extreme deal hunters in our office, and for this very reason, she excuses herself to go to the toilet at exactly 11:45 a.m. every day, even when lunch break is at 12:30 p.m. Sometimes she’ll come back with a smile; sometimes she’ll come back with a frown.
We call this group of shoppers the ones who look for Lit deals: because lit is the superlative of best (best, best-er, lit).
And this lady has told us something: from 23 April 2018 to 26 April 2018, Shopee will be running the Lit AF sale, whereby the Lit-est deals will be released at 12:00 p.m. (noon) daily during this period.
If you’re new to Shopee, you can take $7 off your first purchase (min. spend $15) with the promo code GFxLITAF7.
It is, according to this lady colleague whom we’ll call Ms Little, the hottest sale this April, with over 1,000 deals at discounts up to 90%…and lowest price guaranteed.
My other colleague, Mr Large, said that Ms Little got the info as she has befriended a Shopee staff and did a “Cambridge Analytica” there. I’m not sure it has something to do with the current privacy issue at Friendster (or Instagram – I don’t care), but the deals are really LIT.
Here’re some of the deals we know of. There’re more, of course; these are just the few that might lit you up.
Irvins Hot & Spicy Bomb Salted Egg Chips at 23% Off
(Starts on 23 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $19.50
Discounted Price: $15.00
If you’ve yet to try Irvins salted egg chips, you’re one of the unfortunate few who’s yet to tried crispy chicken rendang.
These addictive chips, which I would argue that they’re made of money instead of potato due to their high price, are the Foodie King’s answer to the LIT-est chips in the world (so far). The chips, unlike other low-quality clones, are coated with such thick layers of salted egg that it’s not uncommon for people to lick the chips than to eat it.
These made-of-money chips original price for a large packet is $19.50, but because it’s a Lit AF sale, it’ll be at $15.
If you’ve yet to try this awesomeness because of the price tag, now is the best time to do so.
Samsung S9 Plus 256GB (S9+) at 24% Off
(Starts on 23 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $1,498.00
Discounted Price: $1,140.00
Seriously, do I need to tell you what this is? I know you’re only interested in the price, here goes: it’s at $1,140 without a two-year contract when the original price is $1,498. That’s a massive 24% discount!
Now, if you really need me to explain what Samsung S9 is, here’s a brief introduction: it’s a calculator that is solar-powered.
And please, live on Earth instead of Mars.
Red Velvet Etude House Luv Special Kit Matte Chip Lip Lacquer + Photo Card Set at 39% Off
(Starts on 23 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $65.00
Discounted Price: $39.90
This is for the ladies who want to look good, and the guy who has K-pop girls as his wallpaper on his phone and claimed that he’s not the one who set the wallpaper.
While this won’t make girls look like Red Velvet, it’s at least from Etude House, a brand familiar with most ladies. With 39% discount, which is a saving of $25.10, there’s still a chance to look like Red Velvet: use the savings for a plastic surgery.
But no lah, I’m joking: use the savings for some gym membership and you’re one step closer to looking like Red Velvet.
Seagate Hard Disk Black at 20% Off
(Starts on 23 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $105.90
Discounted Price: $85.00
It’s 2018: if you still haven’t grasped the importance of backups, Murphy’s law says that your computer is going to break down in the next few months.
While some swear by backing up to the cloud, many still have the habit of putting it in an external hard disk. This would come in handy if you’ve not developed the habit of backing up every single thing: from your OOTD to images of yesterday’s breakfast.
I mean, it’d have been hellish if someone didn’t see the Egg Benedict you have yesterday, right? That’s worse than pumping $10 of petrol for $135 worth of petrol and getting CSI-ed online.
Do it with this Seagate hard disk: Seagate is one of the most recognized brands, and at $85, it’s an affordable way to ensure that your ego – I mean, images of your breakfast – is intact

Discounted Price: $89.00
What’s the most important thing to do during a trip?
Throwback Thursday (i.e. humblebragging, i.e. I live a better life than you losers so please envy me).
And you can’t brag if you don’t have a good-looking luggage. But you’ve spent so much on the tickets; what can you do about the luggage?
Here’s the solution: this luggage’s original price is $249 but it’s going for $89.
The best part? It’s so large (at 4L), you can even put a kid in and save on one more air ticket.
Now you can throwback not only on Thursday but Wednesday as well.
Nintendo Switch Joy-Con at 26% Off
(Starts on 26 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $119.90
Discounted Price: $89.00
So you have a Nintendo Switch, but you need to zhng it. But you’ve spent all your life savings on the console and all you’re left with is $89. You can either use that $89 for your meals until the end of the month, or you can zhng it.
As a gamer, the choice is obvious.
For $89 (originally at $119.90), you can have more controllers…and they come in colours beyond your imagination.
We’re not talking about third-party ones (it’s Nintendo leh, Bro, you think got third party one meh?), but the original ones.
So, gamers, heads up: it’s time to have Maggi Mee for the next ten days.
Dyson Supersonic HD01 Hair Dryer-Iron/Fuschia at 7% Off
(Starts on 26 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $535.00
Discounted Price: $495.00
A wise influencer once said this: “This is probably the best Christmas gift ever.”
Here, take a look yourself.
It looks so cool, one would just buy it immediately without second thoughts…until they see the price, that is.
This super cool hairdryer cost $535.
But fret not. If you die-die want to get it, here’s the deal: it’ll be at $495 during Shopee’s LIT AF Sale.
Still a little too high, but then again…IG-worthy pictures are priceless.
NESCAFÉ® Gold Blend Instant Soluble Coffee 200g (FREE Barista Machine) at 18% Off
(Starts on 26 April 2018, 12:00 p.m.)
Original Price: $85.00
Discounted Price: $69.90
This is cute; let me explain why.
When you buy six of these…
…you get this for free.
Yeah, cute, isn’t it?
But we all know how it works: just like ink printers and cartridges, the business is trying to sell the cartridges, not the printer. Understanding how a business works is like trying to understand what a woman is thinking: don’t even try.
For $69.90, you’ll get 600 mugs of coffee (one tin promises 100 mugs) and a free machine. That means one mug of coffee is a mere $0.12 – way cheaper than the Kopi-O Kosong we get from kopitiam.
If you’re one who’s a zombie before a cup of coffee every morning, this is for you.
In case you’ve not noticed, the promotion is from 23 April 2018 to 26 April 2018, with those awesome deals streaming in at 12:00 p.m. sharp.
They tend to run out fast, so you should do what my colleague often does: rush to the toilet fifteen minutes before the deals are released and camp in there, so you won’t be called into a meeting and miss the deals.
Remember, if you’re new to Shopee, you can take $7 off your first purchase (min. spend $15) with the promo code GFxLITAF7.
Also, you can get $12 off (min. spend $100) when you checkout with your Citi Cards! Don’t have a Citi Credit Card yet? Apply now and get up to $120 cashback as you spend + $70 Shopee vouchers. T&Cs apply.
