If a good book deal is enough to tempt you into a shopping trip, there is still time to visit the POPULAR Book Exhibition at AEON MALL Kota Bahru. Running until 15 August 2026, the exhibition brings together books, stationery, gadgets, IT products and other useful items, with several promotional offers designed to give shoppers more value when they spend.
For anyone who has been putting off buying new books, stocking up on stationery or looking for practical gadgets, this could be a worthwhile opportunity to browse. Rather than simply offering a selection of products in one place, the exhibition comes with several savings and membership incentives that can make a planned shopping trip a little more rewarding.
The POPULAR Book Exhibition is located at the Lower Level, Center Court of AEON MALL Kota Bahru, making it convenient for shoppers already visiting the mall. It is particularly worth considering for families, students, readers and anyone who enjoys browsing through books and stationery before deciding what to take home.
Save More When Buying Malay and English Books
One of the main offers at the exhibition is a 20% rebate on Malay and English language books when buying two or more books. This is the sort of promotion that can work particularly well for shoppers who already have several titles on their reading list.
Instead of purchasing a single book and leaving it at that, shoppers can take the opportunity to compare different titles and see whether buying at least two makes sense for their needs. It could be a chance to pick up a novel for leisure reading, a reference book for the family or something suitable for a child or student.
For regular readers, a rebate on two or more books can also be useful because it encourages a larger purchase while providing some savings at the same time. The key is to choose books that are genuinely useful or wanted, rather than buying simply because there is a discount.
Get RM10 in Promo Vouchers
Another offer worth looking out for is the chance to get RM10 worth of promo vouchers, provided as RM5 x 2, with a minimum spend of RM50 nett.
This gives shoppers another reason to plan their spending before heading to the exhibition. If there are several items already needed, reaching the RM50 nett threshold could potentially bring additional value through the vouchers.
For example, someone shopping for books and stationery could combine several smaller purchases rather than buying items separately. Families preparing for school or students looking to refresh their stationery supplies may find it easier to reach the required spending amount naturally.
As with any promotion involving vouchers, shoppers should check the applicable terms and conditions, including how and when the vouchers can be used.
Look Out for Rebates of Up to 60%
The exhibition also features rebates of up to 60% on selected products purchased with purchases, with a minimum spend of RM60 nett.
This is particularly interesting for bargain hunters because the offer extends beyond books. Depending on the eligible products available during the exhibition, shoppers may be able to discover additional items at a significantly reduced price when they meet the stated spending requirement.
The phrase “purchased with purchases” is important here, as this type of offer normally comes with specific qualifying conditions and selected products. Shoppers should therefore check the promotional signage and terms before making a purchase based on the advertised maximum rebate.
Still, for anyone who already plans to spend RM60 nett or more, it is worth taking a few extra minutes to see what qualifying offers are available. Sometimes the best value comes from discovering a useful item that was not originally on the shopping list.
A Chance to Pick Up Exclusive Membership Gifts
There is also something for shoppers interested in becoming a POPULAR member. The exhibition is offering free exclusive gifts for every application or renewal of a POPULAR membership card or e-Kad.
For existing customers whose membership is due for renewal, this may be a convenient time to take care of it while visiting the exhibition. Meanwhile, regular POPULAR shoppers who have not yet signed up can consider whether membership would be useful for their future purchases.
The free gift adds another small benefit to the shopping experience, although shoppers should check the current membership terms and eligibility requirements before applying or renewing.
Why Visit the POPULAR Book Exhibition at AEON MALL Kota Bahru?
There are plenty of bookshops and online shopping options available today, so a physical book exhibition offers something slightly different. Shoppers can actually browse through the available titles, compare products and discover things they might not have searched for online.
The variety is another reason to make the trip. The event is not limited to books, with stationery, gadgets, IT products and other merchandise also featured. That makes it easier to turn a simple book-shopping trip into a broader shopping session.
For parents, it can be a practical opportunity to look for reading materials and stationery for children. Students may find useful study supplies, while working adults can browse stationery and technology-related products. Readers, meanwhile, can simply enjoy taking their time looking through the books and deciding which titles deserve a place at home.
The promotional structure also gives shoppers several ways to potentially save. There is the 20% rebate for qualifying Malay and English books, RM10 in promo vouchers for qualifying RM50 nett spending, rebates of up to 60% on selected purchase-with-purchase products for qualifying RM60 nett spending, and an exclusive gift for eligible membership applications or renewals.
Taken together, these offers make the exhibition more appealing for people who already have shopping plans.
Plan the Visit Before 15 August
The biggest thing to remember is the closing date. The POPULAR Book Exhibition at AEON MALL Kota Bahru is only available until 15 August 2026, so shoppers who want to take advantage of the offers should avoid leaving it until the last minute.
Before visiting, it is sensible to make a rough shopping list and decide how much to spend. Those interested in the book rebate can consider selecting at least two eligible Malay or English language books, while shoppers spending RM50 nett or RM60 nett should check which promotional benefits they qualify for.
It is also worth reading the terms and conditions carefully, as the offers are subject to specific conditions and not every product may qualify.
For bargain hunters in Kota Bharu, the POPULAR Book Exhibition at AEON MALL Kota Bahru is therefore worth a look before it ends. With books, stationery, gadgets and IT products available alongside several promotional offers, it could be a convenient chance to combine useful shopping with some potential savings.
A visit does not have to mean spending heavily. The better approach is to identify what is genuinely needed, compare the available offers and make use of the promotion where it naturally fits the shopping budget. With the exhibition ending on 15 August, this is one shopping opportunity that readers, families, students and stationery lovers may want to check out before it is gone.
