can explain whats that?

ntuc vouchers - smrt 5% (vs anz optimum)

means u use your SMRT to buy voucher at 5% off
or 5% rebate at the end of the month ?

then u use voucher to shop at NTUC later, is it?

But commoners like me can only go for $30, $80 or $150, quarterly rebates. no option for $300 quarterly rebate.

that's why it's case by case basis only. $30, $80, $150, $200 or $300 quarterly.

And I don't think I'm the only one that received this offer.

UOB sent mailer asking me to spend this amount. I think lot more ppl also receive it.
