The great S'porean queue: This time it's for Popular Bookstore's moving out sale

STOMPer James came across a long queue at City Square Mall's Popular Bookstore outlet for its moving out sale. The 20-minute queue was just to enter the store, said the STOMPer.

Wrote James:

"As the Popular Bookstore at City Square Mall is moving out, it was having a massive sale with as much as 50% off for books and 25% off for assesment books, stationery and etc.

"It drew a large crowd and people had to queue for at least 20 minutes to get access to Popular.

"The sale is open to public until June 24."
