Ah you see lah, I'm so excited when I was at the Spotlight Stores Media Preview event few weeks ago until I forgot to take the picture of their entrance ( so when I went back Saturday to shop, I took the picture of the entrance finally).
Can't blame me for being so excited when Spotlight Store is the Australia's largest fabric, craft, party and homemaker superstores has finally opened their first store in Malaysia! Spotlight Store will be officially opened to the public today on 12 July 2014, 10am at Ampang Point Mall (2nd floor).
Spotlight which currently has 117 stores located in Australia, New Zealand and Asia, will occupy 2,400 sqm of retail space in Ampang Point Mall. The store will house over 150,000 high quality products in 6 categories namely
- Home Furnishing
- Manchester (bedding)
- Home Decor
- Dress and Fashion Fabrics
- Craft
- Hobby and Party Essentials
The General Manager Marketing of Spotlight Jono Gelfand said that Spotlight Malaysia will become a creative hub that offers best value for home interiors, fashion designers, parties and hobby crafts lovers. I read that they are committed to opening 12 stores in the next five years with three more stores to fulfill this year and probably another eight or nine in the next three to five years. The next one should be in Mines Shopping Mall and next one would be somewhere in Damansara!
The first place I visited when I entered the store is the bedding section because I have been looking for new pillows and some other bedding stuff ever since our place was renovated 6 months ago.
Honestly I have been hunting for bedding stuffs, I have a budget to spend lah and there are not much store that offer proper bedding choices (except Ikea which is not cheap). I can tell you that Spotlight Store offers pretty good range of good quality at a very affordable price
I immediately pulled shopping cart and went around looking for one. I was glad that the staffs of Spotlight Store in this Ampang Point Mall is really well trained and friendly from the few staffs I talked too.
Although this is a fasting month but this Malay staff was really friendly and helpful to walk me around the store (it's huge mind you!) around to recommend me what to get. He even offer to help to push my shopping cart.
! In the past, I have tried different pillows (including duck feather pillow) but it's too soft for my liking. And latex pillow is not cheap and not easy to find, and memory foam pillow is not cheap. But when I saw this Memory Foam Pillow from an Australian brand, Logan & Mason I tried squeezing and sleeping on.. I kinda like it so immediately bought a pair!
And after sleeping on this Memory Foam Pillow for 3 days I can tell you this is one of the best pillow I have ever owed! It's firm but not hard... and best of all it's RM45 each. BUT if you going to the opening today you can get this at 40% off at only RM27 each!
All bedding products are having at least 30-40% off at least for today's opening!! So don't miss it ah!
There are bed linens too

So many colours and types to pick from lah!
So many types of towels in so many pretty colours!
One of the must grab for the opening is the Emerald towels that would be selling at RM10 each (NP RM19.99) comes in varieties colours! I touched the towel fabric not bad eh... I shall go and grab this today!
