Hey guys,

great that all of you are keepin this going. With prices increasing, we really muz make more effort to get discount.
Seems like the Udrive card is giving the most discount so far. Any bros and sis using it at the moment? Any Cons that go with the Pros of using the card?

Only limitation is that you must be a NTUC Union member 1st before you can qualify for the card...

Yes... as i've mentioned earlier... if you are not an existing NTUC Union Member... no point rushing to join the Union just for the Udrive Card.  Union fees is about ~$100/yr...

UPDATECaltex petrol, diesel prices up 
Other brands likely to follow suit soon.
By Christopher Tan, Senior Correspondent 
AMERICAN oil company Chevron raised pump prices of its Caltex petrol and diesel by five cents a litre on Monday - the sixth increase since July and the second in about a fortnight.

The others - Shell, ExxonMobil and Singapore Petroleum - are likely to do likewise in the coming days.

Chevron's move brings its pump prices to record levels.

Before discount, the price of Caltex Silver 95 is now $1.886 a litre, Caltex Gold 98 $1.96 a litre, Caltex Platinum $2.126 a litre and diesel $1.403 a litre.

For the past 5 transactions I've charged to the Maybank card during Oct 07, I am getting an average conversion rate ranging from 2.285 - 2.305.

I leave you to do the maths whether that rate is good or not.

Somemore, that is excluding the 5% rebates which you can earn from merchants like Caltex MY, Shell MY, Esso MY, Petronas, Carrefour MY, Giant MY, Tesco MY.

If I am not wrong, there are also "Treatz points" to be earned by charging to that card. Not to sure how that works though.

[iagree]
