The furniture outlets (IKEA Alexandra nearby) and home brands also see deep GSS clearance pricing.

Strategy: Visit on weekday mornings for the best selection. Bring a shopping list — IMM's outlet prices are competitive even without GSS, so the additional sale-period discounts make it genuinely worth the trip west.

Getting there: Jurong East MRT (NS1/EW24), 5-minute walk or free shuttle bus.
