For those in Kuching who love books, gadgets, or are simply on the lookout for a worthwhile bargain, there’s a sale event happening right now that’s absolutely worth the visit. From 25 July till 10 August 2025, Popular Book is bringing their much-anticipated Bookfair to the Lower Ground Main Concourse of Farley Mall, Kuching. It’s more than just a book sale—it’s a full-fledged bargain-hunting experience for bookworms, tech lovers, and savvy shoppers alike.
So what’s all the fuss about? Let’s talk about the deals first.
Popular Book Malaysia has consistently offered fantastic promotions in their fairs over the years, but this time around, they’ve stepped it up a notch. Visitors to the bookfair can expect English book bundles going for as low as RM20 nett for 10 selected titles—that’s only RM2 per book. It’s an especially tempting offer for those trying to build a home library on a tight budget, or teachers and parents looking for affordable options to keep children engaged during school holidays. Whether it’s fiction, non-fiction, or educational material, there’s something for every reader.
Meanwhile, for those preferring reading material in Chinese, there’s an equally compelling deal—3 selected Chinese books for just RM15 nett. That averages out to RM5 per book, which is a steal given how expensive books have become in recent years. It’s ideal for readers who enjoy Chinese literature, families wanting to promote language learning at home, or simply anyone hoping to expand their collection affordably.
But the savings don’t stop there.
Shoppers spending RM50 nett or more will receive a RM5 promotional voucher—an easy way to stretch the value of one’s ringgit further. And if you’re planning to stock up even more, a minimum spend of RM60 nett unlocks access to up to 50% off on Purchase-with-Purchase (PWP) items. These PWPs usually include practical and high-demand products like stationery, office supplies, home-use gadgets or popular merchandise—so there’s a lot to gain.
Also worth highlighting is their Popular Card/e-Card exclusive offer. If you apply or renew a POPULAR Card/e-Card during the event, you’ll be entitled to a FREE exclusive gift, while stocks last. This not only rewards loyal customers, but also encourages new members to enjoy benefits that go beyond the bookfair itself—discounts, member-only prices, and first access to future promotions.
All these little incentives stack up to create a very appealing reason to visit.
Now, let’s talk about why this matters.
Firstly, it’s rare these days to come across such all-rounded promotions—ones that cater to different demographics and needs all at once. Book lovers of all ages, families with school-going children, students, working professionals, and even casual readers can all benefit. Beyond the books, the inclusion of gadgets and IT products also ensures that the tech-inclined are not left out.
The location of the fair at Farley Mall, Kuching makes it easily accessible, especially for locals and residents in nearby areas. With the fair hosted in the Lower Ground Main Concourse, the layout is typically spacious and convenient, allowing for a pleasant browsing experience. If past events are anything to go by, the venue is likely well-organised, clean, and staffed by helpful team members ready to assist in product recommendations and card registration.
Another reason to check out the event is the timing. With the fair running for over two weeks—from 25 July till 10 August 2025—there’s plenty of time to plan a visit, or even multiple visits. Whether you’re dropping by on a weekday afternoon or planning a family weekend outing, the flexibility is there.
Families, in particular, may want to use this opportunity to encourage reading habits among children. With the school holidays falling within this window for many, it’s a good time to bring young ones along and let them choose their own books. Not only does it foster autonomy, but buying books at discounted prices can help instil the value of knowledge without breaking the bank.
On top of that, with so many digital distractions around, physical books still hold a special place in many households. And there’s a charm about browsing bookshelves and discovering titles serendipitously that online shopping simply can’t replicate. This fair provides a chance to rediscover that joy, especially at a time when bookshops are becoming fewer.
Also, don’t underestimate the value of joining or renewing a POPULAR Card. Not only do cardholders get to enjoy ongoing benefits beyond this specific event, but they’ll also receive an exclusive free gift, which adds another layer of value. POPULAR Malaysia has always been generous with their member perks, and this event is no exception.
In short, if you’ve been waiting for a sign to treat yourself to new books, useful gadgets, or even some practical back-to-school supplies, this is it.
Come for the deals. Stay for the thrill of the hunt. Walk away with more than you came for—and maybe even something you didn’t know you needed.
Don’t miss the chance. Make a trip to Farley Mall Kuching and see what treasures await. You may walk away with a whole stack of books for under RM30, a new gadget, an exclusive gift, and a big smile on your face knowing you’ve saved a lot while getting great value in return.
And with the promotions available only while stocks last, the earlier one goes, the better the chances of snapping up the best items.
Make this a plan, bring a friend or a loved one, and enjoy the rare satisfaction of walking into a fair and walking out with both arms full—without burning a hole in your wallet.
