I bought a girl jacket at $4. I was shopping at the supermarket and saw 2 ladies. 1 of them was wearing translucent dress and can see her black panty. I was following them and we smile at each other but too bad need to rush for the Terminator movie.

Thanks a lot and I have been to City Walk and it's a quiet place but the theme park is not bad for kids. I am too lazy to wonder too far out from Nagoya or Penuin hehehe.

[Asyveth]

Anyone can intro any OKT in Batam? Looking for a fast way to chiong and bonk as many girls as possible.

I got a question for the Batam veterans of there. I see those vouchers with expiration dates of November 30th. Does that mean that the trip must take place by November 30th, or that it must be used by November 30th? For example, would I be able to use the voucher November 30th voucher for a round trip on December 1-2?

I just tried Fame Spa at the recommendations of the bros here. Confirmed playability. Even the body scrub girl does specials too. Hope this helps.

Noted, and this is the reason why i ask you the question :

Notice the expiry date is in blue?

Serial number in Red too?

And also take note of the serial number if one is buying 31st March 2020 e-coupon. Take not that the color of the serial number is in Black instead of its previous Red.

I am not being careful for nothing. My guess is, Horizon Ferry counter might have knew there are a few clowns like myself who is meddling with the expiry date,hehehe...

My usual sequence goes like this, 1 hour of foot reflexology during the early part of the day, 1 hour of body massage on mid day and towards the end of the night, another hour of foot reflexology.

Its like massage 1st, tiring myself out from the moving around, then massage again...tired myself again then another round, move again...then massage. Which is how i can easily become regular in most massage shops in a very short frame of time.

My cost in dollars? Its almost the same as going for an hour massage in Sillypore (S$45 to S$60).

Since i am talking about Ferry ticket on the above and in order not to waste bandwidth, here's what i found in my last trip in Batam.

This orange Horizon ferry ticket in Batam has gone up in price :

From originally 380k rupiah (after bargaining,its 375k rupiah) to currently selling it at 420k rupiah. Not a good news to me. Went to check up a few shops in Batam, including the one beside An Shun at Nagoya area, price is same. All selling at 420k rupiah...

The above notes would be linked with the Horizon ferry CNY 2020 planning :

https://sammyboy.today/showpost.php?p=19...ostcount=15289

Just planning my upcoming CNY2020 Batam trip.

And by the way, Formosa will up their hotel price by about 30k rupiah starying 2020. I will come to that later.

Cheers!

Interesting monthly room rental from a hotel,hehehe...

I guess no need to tell anyone where this Romance hotel is situated already,hehehe...especially for those who has been to Marine Live sea food before.

Rooms are pretty new,especially when its being run by OYO or Red Doorz.

With room cleaning and bed linen change at twice a week, now...make a guess how much would this room cost a month.

Do feel free to make a guess 1st, before clicking on the spoiler button below :

( Click to show/hide )

Nothing is all good tho, hence i am guessing this room has got no window. So i cant look out from the hotel. Not forgetting no smoking as well,hehehe...but then again, i cannot deny that it price is pretty good.

Little bit cheaper than Lai Lai apartment. However, there's no breakfast provided, but then again...with all the Go Food and Grab Food thingy, who will be bother by hotel breakfast anyway. The good part would be, its near to almost everywhere,especially its just about 5 mins walk to Hawaii KTV (a overnight girl booking joint),hehehe...maybe one day should try staying in this type of hotel for a night or 2 since i am constantly looking at staying in lower starred hotels but taking up their best and better room.

One night cost between (and about) S$9.31 to S$17.34 (inclusive of breakfast,tax and plus plus all in) base on their different types of room.

Just sharing, since on and off i will be looking up such info to keep myself updated on the rental and buying/selling market on properties in Batam.

Cheers!

Pertaining to Horizon Ferry tickets previously I used to utilise those orange tickets that I got for free from friends who patronise certain seafood restaurant in Singapore. But I still need to top up $28 during weekdays n $38 during weekends to use them. Lately what I did was I manage to buy directly from certain tour agency via WhatsApp bypassing carousel n Qoo10. The price quoted was $24 for weekdays and $33 on weekends. So far I have bought twice for weekend trips and hence manage to save a few dollars. You just need to give them ur particulars and date of travel and of course pay them via online banking immediately and they will processed for you. What you need to do is on the actual day just go to the express counter one hour before departure with your booking code and they will issue you the tickets. So far I went to Batam and bought two tickets. I forgot to ask whether they sell single ticket. The disadvantage is you need to buy at least two days in advance and also depends on the availability of seats for your chosen trip. I hope this help.

able to share the name or some description of that Sekar girl?

i never managed to successfully bargain below 1.1M there.

Simply stick one of this sticker onto the person/group using Grab's shirt...

( Click to show/hide )

( Click to show/hide )

The touts and mafia in the area will know i am waiting for hotel taxis,hehehe...therefore they will not even ask me (and my friends) if we need taxi or not just outside the entrance. Immune to "conventional taxis",hehehe...

Of course, gonna still make sure the taxi touts and taxi mafia do not see whats on my mobile phone. In other word, during ordering of online taxis, DO NOT behave like many ignorant typical Singaporean who would keep holding their phone while waiting for GRAB or GoCar taxi to arrive. Keep the vehicle number,vehicle colour and the approximate time it will arrive in mind, that is all.

brother, still got ani more of tose sticker? can help me steal sm? mine gng 2 finish liao....lol...best is got mix & match with other hotel type....lol

hw yr recent trip in yr new hotel hunt?

got smthg worth hunting or farming 4?
