Then what is the purpose of the folders?

We are getting the leftover...
Because the Banks have plenty Commemorative Notes - but no Folders....
PG everyday ...7 early 8 early go and Q...for Folders

Working Adults ...no chance of getting this Folders...

So it is good MAS is giving the empty Folders to Singaporeans for Free. :imcool:

Additional Six Million SG50 Notes Folders for Singaporeans

Singapore, 3 September 2015… The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) announced today that an additional six million folders will be printed to meet the overwhelming demand from Singaporeans for both the SG50 commemorative notes and folders. Demand for the folders has exceeded initial expectations.

2 From the middle of November 2015 onwards, two folders will be made available to every Singaporean household. They will be able to get these folders without having to obtain the SG50 notes at the banks. MAS will announce further details at a later date. In addition, folders will continue to be available at the banks for those who exchange for the requisite number of notes. There will be enough folders and there is no need to rush for them.

I happened to be at OCBC bank today in basement of JEM. There was a short queue there. Waited 15 mins and I'm a happy camper of 2 sets of commemorative notes. Will give them to my kids as their inheritance... lol.


That day after collection of the set of commemorative notes fr the bank...
i alrdy placed it on my gal's study table with a Note written: \" For U to keep it \"... πŸ˜„

Me too! Before the PSLE Oral Examination, I told DS that if he puts in his best effort, I will reward him the notes.

Sounds tempting and unsure if I should do so too


I think u should.

2015 is a memorable year with SG50 and LKY demise.

My kids will share such memories with their kids.

Agree. Apart from the notes, I bought lots of LKY books also.

The notes are nice what. I would like to see the face of the counter staff if we used it to buy some burgers πŸ™‚
I agree the notes are nice.. I kept a set too..

What I meant is.. it's worth the face value only and not much value add bcoz of the large qty printed. maybe after a while no need queue also can get.

hmm..

Yes... collectors' items are valuable only if they are rare. So the misprinted ones may actually be the valuable ones down the road because they were first to be printed and they are so rare πŸ™‚ Don't throw them away or exchange them, ok.
