Noticed that recently the DBS ATM starts to introduce "only $50 and $100 bills" available....

Looks like inflation is truly escalating and $100 bills becomes more common liao....

The other day I saw a customer dish out $1000 note at NTUC.

 

Just a week before, I saw another guy dish out $1000 note at Watson's

 

Tink it wouldn't take long for ATM to have 1000 bill

don' think too much, just easier for people to withdraw money to buy 4D and toto.

These people should have priority as they fill the coffers faster than those trickling in from GST

Luckily I gave up DBS/POSB. UOB ATM dispenses $80, a mix of $50 & $10s whic makes more sense. Next higher amount is $200. Never like DBS/POSB.

We're considered a first world country yet so many places accept cash only (Lets not debate over the transaction costs to use a credit/debit card).

 

In the states you get crazy eye stares if you dish out a $100 dollar bill to pay for groceries. No one i know carries high denomination (US only has up to $100 denomination notes only) currencies over there.

 

Even the small-scale shops there accepts at least a debit card. I honestly prefer to pay using my NETS/debit card but sometimes am forced to use cash if i want to get some discount on electronic items.
