      I analysed the receipt yesterday after I topped up the gas....yes about 20% šŸ˜‚

      Firstly, I found a table dated 25 May comparing the per litre prices for different type of petrol and the station.

      https://scontent.fsin14-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t39.30808-6/283361802_5109879112423562_962095123573317556_n.png?stp=dst-png_s320x320&_nc_cat=101&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=8024bb&_nc_ohc=MNkXDIvlLfMAX9iOf-b&_nc_ht=scontent.fsin14-1.fna&oh=00_AT_ZQE1jm4A5bYu4T3oByywv6H1vlI0A9mamwz6dtvM9Vg&oe=62996FE5\">

      SPC seems to have the lowest price for 95 which was what I pumped....

      The discount for UOB credit card as follows:
      SPC - 10%
      UOB - 5 %

      Then additionally for every $60 spent, there is a $3 discount.
      So if your gas is >$120, $6 discount. That should be the max discount because every gas tank can only fill up so much.
      That's equivalent to about 5%. So total discount is about 20%.

      If you are using the UOB One card, then there is a further cashback on a $500 statement, up to 3.33%, then total discount would be maximum up to 23.33%?

      Another tip I got from the cashier yesterday, I asked her how to know about the special weekend discounts which usually would usually start from friday afternoon to sunday....like additional 5%? (verbatim from her...not sure how accurate). She said check FB...it would be announced there....if you catch it, you strike lottery... šŸ˜‚
      I m using UOB One. But now don't keep track on spending le coz chg till I lost touch.

      Why is yr SPC not 15%?

          No need to track, it just means you have more discounts from cashbacks.
          SPC card itself is 10% but the fixed 5% comes from the bank credit card which they tie up with so they always say it as 15%....because typically everyone pays with credit card even if they have cash due to this discount I think. I also only realised it yesterday after so long... šŸ˜‚

            Before petrol went beyond $3, my each pump usually under $100. So the best discount was $60 (sometimes ago was $65) with UOB. All in all about 22% off.

            But I ever pumped at Commonwealth SPC...the discount seemed less than when I pumped at Bt Batok (about the same time)

            The best is sinopec...no headache min amount, which credit card or loyalty card...23% off and still can collect some points for future offset. Peak or off-peak still long Q

                I've been monitoring using my wall clock which also tells the temperature. It is now 31.1C. That is hot.
                It is usually between 29C and 30C. Sigh. Guess I have to hide in aircon tonight.

                    And you could be in a a good position to nurture your step son well , maybe even become an important person in his growth and he may appreciate you.
                    Hi bbbay (my friend),
                    Thank you for your encouragement but my son has already grown up. He is 28 years old now and has just purchased his own BTO flat...will get marry once the BTO flat is ready. I was not an important person in his growth because all his decisions were made by his father. To him, I am just his father's wife. 🤷

                        Yes very hot. Under the sun is terrible. Luckily abt half the distance with some shade.
