Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Great Singapore Sale?

The Great Singapore Sale (GSS) is Singapore's flagship retail event, running from June to August since 1994.

GSS offers 8 weeks of discounts across fashion, electronics, beauty, and dining.

Lazada, Amazon Singapore, and Qoo10 also run major promotions. Singapore's high per-capita spending makes it one of the highest-grossing 11.11 markets per capita in Southeast Asia.
