Cable's Back

Yupz, we've finally gone and gotten cable. Missing for 8 months, its finally installed at our new place. My Discovery Travel and Living, VV drama.. Plus, its hub station, which allows us to record our favourite programmes and series for playback.. Entertainment galore! The dearie and i are certified couch potatoes.

The process was kinda interesting. We surfed for details online and saw that StarHub was giving away $100 of popular bookstore vouchers. The dearie applied online halfway, aborted the application as we decided to swing by the store to apply and pick up the hardware instead. While we were at the store, we found out that the signal was not activated at our place and they had to send down the technicians. Plus, the $100 vouchers are only applicable if we apply online. Being the discerning consumer, of course we decided to submit online instead. In any case, the technicians will still have to come down for the activation and the charges have to be incurred. Plus, $100 is alot of stationery mah.. Price differential by mode of application and shaping of consumer behaviour.. abit of comparison brings some benefits.
