What are some strategic ways to hit $500 spending?

My spending is usually 200-300 per month, not using card.

Any investments that can use up that $500 a month?

Don't force yourself to spend more unnecessarily just to get that extra percent of interest, it's not worth it. ;)

If you drive, buy parking coupons from Sheng Siong. Can pay by credit card.
If you're not driving, help your family/relatives/friends buy and they pay u in cash :D

That's what I do when I fall below S$500 spendings, ends up with a thick stack of coupons in my car lol

I applied although the staff asked me if want to want for the new terms to be out lol. If reduced by a lot will probably get OCBC360 also to gain some interest from both sides

The bank staff said early next month will have revise in the rates, but she dun know what change. Sian :(

Sent from Note 7 using GAGT

wah sian.. dun tell me now have to buy their insurance or investments to maintain the 3.55%.. its really gonna be painful if the interest rate lowers.. this is the only bank so far that accepts debit card payments via AXS for card spending :s22:

Heard from CSO new terms will take effect 1st Dec. Interest still 3.55 but most likely will have additional criteria to fulfill
