The Great Singapore Sale (GSS; Chinese: 新加坡热卖会; Malay: Jualan Raksasa Singapura; Tamil: மாபெரும் சிங்கப்பூர் விற்பனை) was a shopping event that happened annually in Singapore.
That year, over US$1.5 billion was spent by MasterCard cardholders during the Great Singapore Sale.
[4] In 2020, due to the circuit breaker measures as a result of COVID-19 pandemic in Singapore, the Great Singapore Sale was cancelled on 3 May and moved online from 24 August, making it the first online GSS in its 26 year run.
[5] In 2021, the Great Singapore Sale[6] teamed up with online shopping platform Lazada[7] and transformed the retail scene.
In 2023, the Singapore Retailers Association announced that it would no longer organise the Great Singapore Sale, and instead act as a coordinating partner where they would announce the date and allow the retailers and e-commerce platforms to carry out their sales concurrently.
