While a week starts from Sunday to Saturday (or Monday to Sunday, if you prefer) and weekend starts on Friday, Thursday is the day when most new movies are launched. Hence, show times released on this day every week by the cinema operators are generally valid 'til the following Wednesday. Just like major supermarkets' weekly promotions which run concurrent with the 3 or 4-day weekend specials and the monthly ones. Watsons has its Thursday special and McDonald's on-going promotion releases a unique design of Hello Kitty plush toy every Thursday. But for gadget-lovers like me, Thursday is when our once-a-quarter hunt for bargains starts. Other than November's Sitex held at Singapore Expo, the rest – namely IT Show in March, PC Show in June and Comex in August/September, are usually at Suntec Singapore International Convention & Exhibition Centre.
