IIRC, you can get quite decent rates with Priceline at Marriott (www.biddingfortravel.com). I wouldn't advise on staying at the Fullerton, since it is the biz district, so a virtual ghost town on sundays. Raffles the Plaza is right above City Hall MRT (subway stn) so it is quite convenient.

I was at Fisherman's Village at Pasir Ris last weekend, and really enjoyed that place. There's excellent food at decent prices, with the sea just right in front of you. It's a pity it doesn't run 24 hrs, else turn-around MRs could drop by for quick beer and chilli crabs, satay, mee goreng etc...It's abt 10 mins away from Changi Airport
