[Alpha78]

Oil cartels.

Agree wholeheartedly. Previously when Iraq war was ongoing, SGD to USD exchange rate was 1.3+, while crude was USD140+, petrol was going for S$1.8+ per litre. Now crude is USD90+ and exchange rate is 1.27 and petrol is still going at S$2.19 per litre?

Knn I didn't know new SPC&U 17% discount... Else I will get 17%+6% POSB+ $2 coupon... Yesterday SPC got Q so I steight drive to Caltex.. only have a lousy 13 or 15% with Caltex card + OCBC card plus caltex already more expensive than SPC.. I kanna carrot.. lucky I'm those always pump 25-30litre type, not full tank

 

POSB also giving out $2 coupon?

 

Right now the UOB 20% is probably the most value for money. I'm neutral towards petrol brand. I tried the various brands, all the different brand's FC sama sama when measure over 12 mths.

Any UOB card? Up front 20%?

$2.19? That's the official price.

Pumping $60 gross at SPC gets you about 27L. With the 20% discount, you're getting petrol at about $1.70+/L.

 

Iraq War was in 2003. If you factor in inflation (ie: weakening purchasing power of $1 in 2014 compared to 2003), pricing may be the same?

 

Any UOB card? Up front 20%?

 

Yes upfront, any UOB VISA or MasterCard. Must pump $60 gross.

 

@sg2303 mentioned that if you register a new SPC card online, additional 2%.

[Porker]

The duty imposed on 97 RON and above by the government is $7.10 per dal (every 10 liters). So for a liter V power (as an example) at say $2.40 per liter, almost 30% of it goes to government coffers. Alternatively, you can say pump price (per liter of Shell V power at $2.40) increased 42% with the imposed duty.

What is cheap in $$$ingapore???

Singapore citizenship if not that blue IC.

[Kangadrool]

ExxonMobil (with DBS) and SPC (with POSB) discounts more straight forward.

 

Other permutations, too complicated and never as good as above.

stick with SPC, its still cheaper.

 

i have a $2 off every $50 coupon due to Tanjong Katong Station being closed for renovations.

 

So pump $65 in Oct 2014, Take 17% off. then minus $2 for coupon. minus $3 for UOB card, then another 3% rebate for UOB one card. works out to be $47.48.

 

for 95octane which is at $2.19/L at the pumps, works out to be $1.60/L after all the discounts.

[Class999]

Agreed straight forward. No need stress d brain. Previously, I used Mobil with DBS card. Now use SPC with POSB card. Best discount.

[Hamburger]

so what is the total for spc+posb card?

i believe mobil + citi dividend = 14% nia...

[keanie]

Don't know why leh.

 

Tried 95/98 on a few occasions on almost empty tank and after a while of driving the computer will show "Depollution System Faulty"

 

Or else I chiong SPC liao. Most discounted petrol in SG.

 

All other brands no such problem.

Don't jump into conclusion lah

Agreed not all cars are suitable to use SPC. But, I know SPC is suitable for older cars. I got a relative driving a very old Merc (more than years), use other brands, no power but used SPC got the power.

so what is the total for spc+posb card?

I know SPC got d best discount. If I remember correctly, it's 21% using POSB Everyday card. But, again as I said not all car is suitable to use SPC. My Jap car not problem.

petrol is petrol and just a fuel, dont think the difference is so drastic. Personally i feel spc petrol is inferior in my butt feel.

 

but if 21%.......butt feel or not, not important anymore.
