Buying Bus Tickets with STEEM! Kuala Lumpur to Singapore or Bust!
I am traveling to Singapore on Monday, and found I could not buy my tickets with the banking set up I have now.
I posted a call for help on steemit last night to see if anyone would buy the tickets for me if I paid them in STEEM.
By the time I got up, I had the answer from the awesome @khimgoh. She wants STEEM and is here in Mayalsia like a normal person with normal Malaysian banking so she can do this for me!
@khimgoh is the admin of @steemitmamas which I belong to and love. We mamas stick together and I am so grateful for this group.
Khim is also in @teammalaysia which has welcomed me with open arms ever since I stumbled into this country. Khim was one of the first of SO MANY steemit Malaysians I have met in person and has helped me in innumerable ways already.
Behold the power of steemit as a community!
Here we go with the bus details.
The website to purchase tickets is:
www.busonlineticket.com
Here is a promo code site that gives me a bit of a discount, if paying at busonlineticket.
But I think this will be the code so you do not have to go to the site, Khim.

My trip to Singapore will be on

This is the bus and I want Seat 12!
This bus is from a company called "Seasons" and if there is any problem, this is their website showing the ticket at the same price.
My trip back to Kuala Lumpur will be on
October 31 at 2:45 pm
This is the bus and I want Seat 1A! (Photo ops!)
This bus is from a company called "Billion" and if there is any problem, this is their website showing the ticket at the same price.
For some reason this ticket is quoted in Singapore dollars at the busonlineticket site and is in Malaysian Ringit at the Billion site.
Cost of all this?
It looks like the total will be about $18 USD! That is in the neighborhood of 25 STEEM. Unbelievable.
So I am paying in STEEM and @khimgoh is doing all the hard work for me, but it is still my ticket and I am paying in STEEM. Good job Steemit!
Hi @fitinfun, I'm @checky ! While checking the mentions made in this post I noticed that @khimgo doesn't exist on Steem. Did you mean to write @khimgoh ?
