Reduce Petrol Cost

[Pentrain]

Hi all,

 

think i would post this here to inform others on some vouchers from the different stations, to reduce the petrol cost we are facing now.

 

Hope others would also add on.

 

Caltex

 

HSBC card -> 12% discount till 31 Dec 2009

 

SPC

 

SPC Card (5% min) + DBS Card (5%)

 

Now they have vouchers, $2 off for every $40 which is equivalent to 5%. Think you could just take from the counter staff (1 to 31 Aug 09)

 

So all in all -> 15%

For the month of Aug me gonna pump SPC cos total discount works out to 19.5% if using POSB Everyday Card..

hi bro,

 

i dun use the citibank dividend card so i'm not sure..i use the normal citibank credit card..and it's 10% disc..

 

what i will do is to check with the counter staff before i pump =)

i'm a AA member and i get 10% discount at caltex!

 

overall i feel that Caltex stations are better organized, cleaner although it cause me quite an inconvenient to find them...

aug still have discount? i believe the vouchers given out are branch specific, do take note.

 

when i was still pumping petrol, i went to pump at adam road, then i checked my voucher, valid only at jurong east

 

but with the $2 for every $30 of petrol spending, SPC seems like a pretty darn good choice.

[Pentrain]

hi bro, the $2 for $30 is for july only i guess

 

i just pumped today at adam road =) the august vouchers is $2 for $40, in celebration of National Day if i'm not wrong..

 

and can be use at any petrol stations

I assume you're referring to esso ?

 

Its still 14.5%. You get 10% upfront discount when you pay. The other 5% is your dividend. You'll see it in your dividend card statement. Once the dividend accumulate to >$50, citi will send you the cheque ....

10% for us, 14.5% for citibank dividend card holders.

i thk i must go back to my old method of getting my JB staff to pump in JB then I siphon from him here liow .....

[Tkseah]

Yup, SPC $2 discount for every $30 coupon in July was the reason i pumped SPC last month.. Aug coupon is $2 discount for every $40 so i'll continue to pump SPC in Aug..

 

Just received AMK Shell coupons for 15% discount for min $50 pumped but only valid on each Thu of Aug.. but difficult to manage till Thu then pump cos my full tank is only around $60.. so guess no Shell for me this month unless just nice Thu tank empty..

Caltex with OCBC card is also 12% discount.

They just match HSBC discount to 12%, but I have to provide the voucher which states min. $20 purchase.

Can you siphon the fuel directly from the car fuel tank ? As I understand most of the fuel tanks come with anti-siphon device. If you can, pl use a good quality siphoning hand pump not those sold in yr neighbourhood "One Dollar" store. I have witness some motorcyclists using transparnet hose and their mouth to suck & prim the fuel ( hopefully the fuel vapour will not burst into flame in thier lungs.)

not 2 mention its illegal too...........

I know this has been discussed before, "water to gas" to save fuel.

 

I have it in my car, fuel saving is around 5-10% plus more power. Not twice the mileage as said in the link. Mine only uses 1 jar, while I read others use up to 6 jars......

 

If you're interested, can PM me, I'll give you the contact (and website) to the guy who does this in SG. He can help you install to your vehicle for trial run for a few rounds near his house at no charge. He's quite confident that you'll feel the difference in power (and I think smoothness) immediately.

woah water to gas is in singapore! Care to organize a meet up so that we all may check your ride out with this device installed?
