Metro

The only reason to shop in Metro is when they have the 20% off storewide promotion. Usually this will include the beauty counters but the discount keep changing as some brands may be a direct 20% off (excellent deal!) or it could be in the form of rebate vouchers (not so good as you need to buy more things just to use the voucher).
I find the clothes selection to be a bit on the mumsy side though it does have Monsoon for resort wear. Accessorize also has a small section on the 3^rd level. The household section is considerably limited when compared to other departmental stores on the Orchard Road strip.
The shoes section is decent with an area dedicated to the more comfy range like Ecco, Easy Spirit, Anne Klein and a few other European brands. Do your price check though as I have encountered a pair of shoes (I bought the same pair in Tangs I think) there which was drastically marked up before it was on sale and even so, it still cost more than what I paid for mine. I always thought all brands are controlled items with same pricing everywhere and that experience taught me to be a bit more price conscious or at least to have a rough gauge on the usual price elsewhere.
Metro needs to step up its game plan to keep shoppers engaged. Currently it seemed to cater to the more matured shoppers in this town outlet. At least until the 20% discount comes along and you see more younger people queuing to buy beauty products.

Metro is located on the second floor of Paragon. They have a beauty counter with the standard brands, although it is NOT as extensive as the beauty counters in Takashimaya.
As a member, they often offer up to 20% off on beauty products throughout the year (have gotten this deal at least 4 – 5 times in a year, compared to Takashimaya’s which usually only offers this twice a year) .
The Clarins counter staff are extremely attentive and professional. Would definitely recommend this outlet if you like the brand and want to stock up on your beauty products.
The Chanel counter staff are also quite adept and is another one I’d recommend here.
