Was reading the accompanying link to the CNA Talking Point 'expert' who says the petrol foams up when pumped in... didn't know petrol can foam up like soft drink... I thought the acting of agitating it like what happens when you pump fuel from a pressurized container would just cause the petrol to vaporize more quickly...

Shaking something up and down can have many reaction. 

@Mustank always do that when he’s alone.

Almost all tanks have a breather hose to burp the tank. Never need to shake. Don’t know which dumbo started this practice.

Was there at 5.30pm, still have vouchers. 😂

Anyone knows when using this discount voucher with UOB one card, if pump more than $60, still can get the $3 off?

@13177 

 

Yes. If you pump $64. 

Firstly, they will deduct $64 - $4 =$60

Then, Uob card with spc card at 15% discount = $60*0.85=$51.

Finally deduct $3 from $51 ==> $48

Like that i kena scam by the SPC when i went to pump yesterday liao. I only checked my receipt after got home, pumped around $66, they only deducted the $4 discount voucher plus the site discount without the $3 for UOB one card. Think even the discount is not at given at 20%, which by right has additional 5%.

Checked liao, no deduct $3. Thought after using the voucher, no more credit card discount. Maybe i send an email to SPC customer service and see what they say. Lol.

What is the amount you top up? You need to factor in the 20% promo (15+5) for last week. 

With 20% promo and $4 coupon, you need to top up $68. 

 

Eg, $68-4 =64

Then 20% discount ==> 64*0.8 = 51.2

Then $3 off >> $48.2

If you top up less than $68, then of course can't meet the $51 spending because of the 20% discount. 

 

Edited, I saw you top up $66, hence can't meet the $51 spending for $3 off.

Yep

The cashier was kind enough to tell me I needed to buy another $3 worth to hit the right sum. Anything in the store is fine

I see i see. No wonder dont have the $3 due to the 20% discount. So if only 15% discount, then have $3 off. Aiya, the pump attendant should pump $2 more. Lol.

Lucky draw no use for me, i rather they give out more discount vouchers. Or higher on site discount.
