If you have been waiting for a good excuse to add a few more books to your collection, POPULAR Bookstore has something worth checking out this week. As part of Pesta Buku Kedah, POPULAR is bringing a selection of Malay and English books together at the Entrance Hall of Village Mall, Sungai Petani, with several promotions running from 24 to 30 September 2026.

For book lovers, this is the kind of promotion that can make a casual shopping trip a little more interesting. Rather than simply browsing through the usual shelves, visitors can explore a variety of books while also taking advantage of selected rebates, promotional vouchers and a special membership offer.

The promotion is particularly useful for shoppers who already have a few books in mind, as one of the highlights offers a 20% rebate on selected Malay and English books when buying two or more. That means this could be a good opportunity to pick up two books together instead of purchasing them separately at another time.

Of course, the exact books included in the rebate will depend on the promotion’s terms and conditions, so shoppers should check with the POPULAR team at the venue before making their final selection. Still, for anyone who enjoys reading in Malay or English, having a chance to browse a dedicated book promotion while looking for savings is certainly worth considering.

Find More Books During Pesta Buku Kedah

Book fairs and book promotions have a way of turning a normal shopping trip into something much more enjoyable. There is always the possibility of discovering something that was not originally on the shopping list.

At the POPULAR Pesta Buku Kedah promotion, shoppers can explore the available Malay and English book selections at the Entrance Hall of Village Mall. Whether you are looking for something to read during your free time, searching for books for the children, or simply want to refresh your home bookshelf, it is worth taking some time to browse.

The advantage of visiting in person is that you can look through different titles before deciding what to buy. Sometimes the most interesting book is not the one you originally intended to purchase. A quick browse can lead to discovering a new author, a different subject or a title that makes a great addition to your collection.

And if you are buying two or more eligible books, the 20% rebate makes the shopping trip even more interesting.

Get a RM5 Promotional Voucher

There is another offer to look out for during the promotion. Shoppers can get a RM5 promotional voucher with a minimum nett spend of RM20.

For regular POPULAR customers, this could be a useful additional saving, particularly if there are other items or books already on the shopping list. Instead of making a small purchase and leaving, shoppers may want to take a look at the available selections and see whether their planned purchases can meet the required minimum spend.

As with the other promotional offers, the RM5 voucher is subject to the applicable terms and conditions. It is therefore a good idea to check the details at the POPULAR counter or with the promotional staff before completing the transaction.

A little planning can make a difference when shopping during a promotion. If you already know that you want to buy a couple of books, checking the rebate and voucher requirements first can help you understand how the offers work and whether your purchase qualifies.

A Chance to Get an Exclusive Gift

There is also something for people who want to become POPULAR members or maintain their existing membership.

During the promotion period, POPULAR members can receive an exclusive gift for every POPULAR member Card or e-Card application or renewal, subject to the stated terms and conditions.

This gives shoppers another reason to visit the promotion even if they are not currently planning a major book purchase. Those who have been thinking about joining POPULAR or renewing their membership can take the opportunity to find out more while visiting the Pesta Buku Kedah event.

For existing members, it may also be worth checking whether their membership is due for renewal. The promotional gift adds an extra benefit to the process, although availability and eligibility will depend on the applicable terms and conditions.

Why Should You Visit?

There are several reasons why this POPULAR promotion could be worth adding to your shopping plans between 24 and 30 September.

The first is simple: books are always useful purchases. Unlike many impulse buys that can quickly be forgotten, a good book can provide hours of reading and learning. Whether you enjoy fiction, educational titles, lifestyle books or other reading materials, there is always something satisfying about finding a title that catches your attention.

The second reason is the 20% rebate on selected Malay and English books when buying two or more. If you have been planning to purchase multiple books, this is an opportunity to check whether your preferred titles are included.

The RM5 promotional voucher with a minimum nett spend of RM20 is another reason to pay attention. Combining planned purchases with an available voucher can make a shopping trip feel more worthwhile.

There is also the exclusive gift for eligible POPULAR member Card or e-Card applications and renewals. For shoppers who are already interested in becoming a member, the promotion provides another reason to complete the process during the event.

Most importantly, the promotion is happening at Village Mall, Sungai Petani, making it convenient for shoppers who are already visiting the mall. Instead of travelling specifically to a distant book fair, visitors can simply drop by the Entrance Hall and see what is available.

Plan Your Visit Before the Promotion Ends

The POPULAR Pesta Buku Kedah promotion is only available from 24 to 30 September 2026, so there is a limited window to take advantage of the offers.

If you are visiting Village Mall during these dates, it is worth making some time to stop by the POPULAR promotion area. Bring along your reading list, have a look at the available Malay and English titles, and compare the eligible promotional offers before making your purchase.

Families can also make the visit part of a weekend shopping trip, while regular readers may find it a convenient opportunity to stock up on books they have been meaning to read.

As always, shoppers should remember that the promotional offers are subject to terms and conditions, and selected products or gifts may have specific eligibility requirements. It is best to confirm the latest details at the venue before purchasing.

With book savings, a possible RM5 promotional voucher and an exclusive gift opportunity for eligible membership applications or renewals, the POPULAR Pesta Buku Kedah promotion gives book lovers several reasons to browse.

So, if you are around Sungai Petani between 24 and 30 September, make your way to Village Mall and take a look at what POPULAR has prepared. You might arrive looking for one book and leave with a few new favourites for the bookshelf.
