Shopping is the favourite past-time of Singaporeans (or so the various tourist handbooks would like us to believe). In this week’s iOS review, e27 has put together an assortment of apps that would enhance your shopping experience, or at least make shopping more of a joy than chore!

Of course with V-day just around the corner, you might just find that perfect gift with the help of these 5 apps.

$This deal aggregator is your best pal when shopping, saving you precious time checking each deal site separately. During this V-day period, many of the vendors are offering V-day specials so it is a great place to find inspiration for that perfect gift! Deals are updated daily, most of them being attractive, and offered at a fraction of their price in stores. The only downside to this is the lack of “favourites” tab that would bookmark potential deals as you browse, to save you the hassle of remembering individual deals. When shopping with this app, do remember to note the amount of time left to purchase each deal to save yourself the disappointment of missing it.$
$Embrace mobile shopping! Shop on the go for Korean merchandises ranging from dresses to iPhone cases and even computer spare parts! Be a discerning shopper and you might get products at a fraction of their price here in brick and mortar shops. As some products are sold by multiple sellers, you can compare prices and save even more. Do take note of the prices for shipping and be sure to find out how long the article would take to reach you. Payment can be made easily through PayPal or credit cards. G-market also gives out discounts if you review the product that you have bought so as a result, reviews are aplenty and can help you determine if a product is worth buying!$
