Deals

National Day is over, but the SG61 season is not, and this is the part most guides stop updating. The best thing left is also the most misunderstood: the free NDP coupons are still live, and we have gone through the actual booklet rather than describing it. Re-checked on 2 September, these still work: Shihlin's Signature Mee Sua and drink at $6.10 and Domino's $1 Large Pizza (code 229715) to 30 Sep, $10 off a $100 spend at COURTS to 14 Sep, 20% off the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum to 30 Sep, Delifrance's $6.10 Signature Sandwich or Pie to 31 Oct, and giga!'s GIGANDP2026 taking the $19.90 5G plan to $13.90 a month for three months, to 31 Dec. Sony has rotated in a fresh September code set. The museum free-entry, Harry's and Coffee Bean coupons now read FULLY REDEEMED, because a good number of these coupons are capped by volume rather than by date.

Burger King Singapore has put Dragon Ball Super on the King Jr. Meal from 7 September 2026, and the schedule on its own campaign banner is the part everyone else got wrong. There are six figures, but they do not all land at once: BK Singapore is releasing one character a week over six weeks. Goku from 7 Sep, Vegeta from 14 Sep, Piccolo from 21 Sep, Super Saiyan Blue Goku from 28 Sep, Super Saiyan Blue Vegeta from 5 Oct, and Beerus from 12 Oct. The deal write-ups published on 7 September describe a random draw of all six, which is the American campaign that launched in the US and Canada on 1 September with a gacha mechanic and an adult Power Up Pack. Singapore is a staggered release, so if you want Beerus, going in September will not get you Beerus. The mechanic BK does print in full is one figure per King Jr. Meal while stocks last. What it does not publish is almost everything else: no King Jr. Meal price anywhere on its own site, no campaign end date, no participating-outlet list, and no wording making the figures app-exclusive. A full set is six King Jr. Meals bought across six separate weeks.

Crocs Singapore is running its 9.9 Flash Sale online at crocs.com.sg, 30% off almost everything plus doorbusters advertised at up to 50% off, with checkout closing at 11.59pm on 9 September 2026. The prices are already cut on the product pages, so there is no code to enter. Read the rail properly and the headline shrinks: of the 41 items on the sale page, only one is actually at the full 50%, the Bayaband Flip at S$27.48 from S$54.95, and when we opened it every women's size from 8 up was out of stock. The rest of the doorbuster tier is 40%. The deepest cut on the whole site is not on that rail at all: the InMotion LiteRide Micro Geo Clog in black is S$51.95 from S$104.95, which is 51%, and it is badged as an ordinary 30% item. The Classic Clog everyone actually comes for is S$52.46 from S$74.95. Bags and totes carry no discount at all, but a luggage tag does. Crocs' own sale page still runs an April headline promising Buy 2 Get 1 Free, which is not part of this campaign. All prices below were read off crocs.com.sg on 7 September 2026.

The Famous Tai Seng Travel Goods Warehouse Sale is back from 10 to 13 September 2026 at 9 Tai Seng Link, and this time the brand has published its full price list before the doors open. Read it properly and the headline moves: the "up to 90%" is one product, a Case Logic Campus Founder 26L backpack at $9 (was $89). The real story is the luggage floor. A Crossing Miles 24" medium hardcase is $39 (was $169) and a TSA-lock 8-wheeled 28" large is $49 (was $229), both marked while stocks last, limited pieces only, which makes them day-one door-crashers rather than four-day deals. Thule, Bellroy, Osprey, Pacsafe, Jansport, Eastpak, Nalgene, Klean Kanteen and about 30 other brands are on the floor, there is a sample clearance from $1, and a VIP tier gives an extra 10% off once you spend $300. Hours are 10am to 8.30pm on the first three days and 10am to 7.30pm on the last. All prices below are read off Boarding Gate's own campaign posters.

Starbucks Singapore is running 25% off storewide from 7 to 13 September 2026. There is no code and no app to unlock: you save the voucher image and show it at the counter, and you need a minimum of two items in a single transaction. The word doing the heavy lifting is storewide, because Starbucks' own voucher carries five exclusions on its face, and in this particular week they cover almost everything a Starbucks fan would want to buy. Mooncake Gift Boxes are out, in Mid-Autumn week. Brand collaboration merchandise is out, and Starbucks names both lines in the fine print: Mofusand, which is on shelves now, and Jay Chou, whose collection is landing inside this very promo window. Reserve and Weave exclusive beverages are out, engraved merchandise is out, and anything already discounted is out. The line most people will trip on is the last one: this cannot be used together with any other promotion, reward or discount, so if you bought the $12.90 Voucher Pack last week, those vouchers and this 25% cannot ride in the same transaction.

Pizza Hut Singapore's 90-minute all-you-can-eat buffet returns for 12 days, every Thursday to Sunday from 10 to 27 September 2026, 11am to 10pm with last seating at 8:30pm. Every repost quotes the headline $19.95++ and stops there. The campaign's own key-details table splits the six outlets into three Dine-In stores and three Eat-In stores, and prices them on two different bases: the Dine-In three are quoted ++, the Eat-In three are quoted inclusive of GST. Run the arithmetic and the base price is identical, $19.95 on Thursday and Friday, $22.95 on Saturday and Sunday. The difference is the service charge, which the Eat-In stores do not charge. A weekday adult pays about $23.92 at Compass One, Tiong Bahru Plaza or Bukit Panjang Plaza, and a flat $21.75 at Heartbeat@Bedok, Wisteria Mall or Buangkok Square, for the same six pizzas and the same free-flow soft drinks. Two adults and two children on a Saturday save $7.90. The trade-off nobody prints: the Eat-In menu has no French Fries and swaps the sauteed pastas for baked ones.

Popeyes Singapore announced Late Night Crunch on its own Facebook page today: three supper sets from $8.90, starting tonight, 7 September 2026, at 10pm. The campaign poster carries the one detail every repost has dropped, a daily window of 10PM TO 2AM, not simply "from 10pm". The Late Night Supper Set is $8.90 for a Hainanese Fragrant Rice Kick Bowl and a regular drink, the Late Night Mac Attack Set is $8.90 for a Mac Attack Bowl and a regular drink, and the Late Night Supper Box is $9.90 for a D'Lite Chicken Sandwich, one piece of Signature Chicken and a regular drink. On Popeyes' own delivery store the Hainanese Fragrant Rice Kick Bowl is $12.50 and the Mac Attack Bowl is $12.90 by themselves, so both $8.90 sets land below the bowl alone with the drink thrown in. No end date is published. The catch is not the price, it is the clock. We read all 26 outlets off Popeyes Singapore's own locations page: only 14 of them stay open through the full 10pm to 2am window, four close at 10.30pm and so catch 30 minutes of it, and five (FairPrice Hub, IMM, Marina Square, NTU and Kallang Wave Mall) shut before or exactly when the offer starts, which means a wasted trip.

Xin Cuisine, the Cantonese restaurant on Level 4 of Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium, is running two mooncake offers at the same time until 21 September 2026, and its own pages never say which one to take. One is a flat 30% off. The other is 1-for-1, where the listed price buys two boxes, and that is worth about 50%. We put both versions of the same box through the checkout to settle it: the 1-for-1 listing stays at its full listed price with no discount applied, while the single-box listing drops from $92 to $64.40 under a line called \"Snowskin and Traditional Mooncake Discount [30% OFF]\". They are alternatives, not layers, and the 1-for-1 wins on all ten flavours that have one. The cheapest way in is a six-piece mini snowskin box at $84 for two boxes, or $42 a box and $7 a piece. The catch nobody has written up: the two Signature Series boxes, the Mini Baked Egg Custard with Yolk and the Teochew Yam Paste with Single Yolk, get no 1-for-1 at all, and the discount the cart actually applies to them is 15%, not the 30% on the collection banner and not the 20% printed on their own product pages. Order by 21 September, allow three days, and collect by 24 September, which is the day before Mid-Autumn.

Decathlon Singapore's 9.9 Smashing Sale runs 5 to 10 September, and the banner across every page of decathlon.sg promises three things: up to 70% off, free delivery, and an extra $15 off with Atome. Two of the three are smaller than they look. The free delivery is a drop in the standard-shipping threshold from $79.90 to $40, and standard shipping costs $2.90, so the perk is worth exactly $2.90 and only on baskets between $40 and $79.90. The $15 Atome voucher needs a spend of $129 or more, and Decathlon's own FAQ says the vouchers are strictly limited and first-come, first-served. The 70% is real but narrower than the banner suggests: Decathlon's own asterisk reads products sold and shipped by Decathlon, and its deals FAQ excludes partner brands such as Yonex, Molten and Manduka along with Second Life stock. What is genuinely worth diarising is the flash-sale livestream at 8pm on 9 September, and the fact that Decathlon's free 2-hour Click and Collect, which the banner counts as part of the offer, is free with no minimum spend every day of the year.

KFC Singapore is putting its Curry Twister Value Meal at $5.50 from 7 to 13 September, down from a usual $6.80. That is a saving of $1.30, or about 19%, on a set that pairs the curry-sauced Twister wrap with a hash brown and a coffee. The gate is what most listings skip. KFC's own poster limits the price to breakfast hours at selected outlets while stocks last, and KFC's help desk puts the breakfast order cut-off at 10.45am, which makes this a deal you have to be awake for. There is a second wrinkle for anyone planning to order in: KFC's own delivery service only opens at 11am, after breakfast has closed, so the poster points you at GrabFood and foodpanda instead. Worth knowing before you get excited about the number: $5.50 is already KFC's standing all-day price for three other value sets, so this week simply brings breakfast in line with the rest of the menu rather than beating it.

POP MART Singapore opened a gift-with-purchase on its own Facebook and Instagram on 6 September: buy the Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Plush Doll Pendant in store and you get a photo-booth-style photo strip in the collab's artwork, free. Three details decide whether you actually get one. The word the brand used is in stores, so the same pendant bought on popmart.com/sg for LOCAL EXPRESS delivery earns nothing. The qualifying item is the S$39.90 pendant specifically, not the S$15.90 Nyota x Chibi Maruko Chan Series Figures blind box that launched alongside it. And POP MART has published no end date at all: the only limit given is while stocks last, first-come first-served, which on a Chibi Maruko Chan collab is a real constraint rather than boilerplate. The six participating shops are POP MART's entire Singapore store list, so there is no outlet to get wrong.

A Debt Consolidation Plan is the one product in Singapore designed to do a single job: take every credit card and credit line balance you hold across banks, and turn them into one fixed instalment at a fraction of the card rate. Thirteen financial institutions are named as Participating FIs in the scheme's own terms, but only seven publish a rate you can read before you apply, and those seven are the ones below. Ranked on the published EIR, Maybank and Standard Chartered tie at the front on 3.48% p.a. (EIR 6.26% p.a.), and the tie breaks on fees: Standard Chartered charges a one-time S$199 joining fee, which its own calculator turns into an EIR of 6.48% on a S$20,000 ten-year loan, while Maybank publishes no joining fee and is paying a 5% cash rebate on the approved loan amount until 31 December 2026. On an S$80,000 consolidation that rebate is S$4,000, which is worth more than any rate gap on this page. DBS follows at 3.58% p.a., and its own terms carry three numbers its product page does not: a S$99 processing fee, a S$90 late fee, and an early termination fee of 5% of whatever is still outstanding. Then the field jumps. HSBC, UOB and OCBC all sit at 4.5% p.a. and Citi at 5.95% p.a. Two traps are worth naming before you read further. UOB's cheapest looking rate, a tiered plan starting at 2.28% p.a., carries the highest EIR the bank publishes because the rate jumps to 6.28% from Year 2, and every DCP hands you a brand new credit card running at roughly 27% to 29% p.a. Every rate, fee and promotion below was read off each bank's own site and terms on 6 September 2026.

IKEA Singapore has put Kids Eat Free back on its IKEA Family food page, and the window is the five weekdays of the September school break: Monday 7 to Friday 11 September 2026. The terms are one line long. One free kids' meal per child with every one main bought from the regular adult menu, for IKEA Family members with children 12 and below, with the card and the child both at the till. It runs at the Swedish Restaurant at Alexandra, Tampines and Jurong, and at the Tampines Halal Line on the same terms. The four free meals are 5 Swedish meatballs with mash, 2 tempura chicken strips, 5 plant balls with mash and organic penne in tomato sauce, each with Kivik juice and, for this promotion, ice cream. Each is $4.50 on IKEA's own menu, which is the interesting part: IKEA sells adult dishes for less than that, including a $2.50 vegetable fried rice and a $4.50 salmon wrap, so at the cheap end of the menu the free item is worth roughly what you must buy to get it. Two things IKEA has not settled on its own page: whether those cheapest plant-based dishes count as a main, and whether the child cut-off is 12 and below or below 12, because the headline and term 3 disagree.

Nike Singapore's 9.9 Sale is live on nike.com/sg, and the label on its own navigation undersells it. The menu offers two rails: Up to 40% off, and Buy 2, Extra 20% Off. We read the product data behind both. The Up to 40% rail holds 1,586 products and its front page is a mix of 30%, 40% and 50% markdowns, so the 40% headline is already wrong on the brand's own page. The Buy 2 rail is the one that matters: 336 products, and every single item on it sits at exactly 50% off, with the extra 20% coming off in cart when you take two. That is a 60% effective discount, and it turns a pair of Air Force 1 '07 into S$119.20 against a usual S$298. Nike's own promotion record, tagged XAFA26NINEBUNDLE, dates the Buy 2 offer from 4 September to 2am on 11 September, so Thursday 10 September is the last full day. One trap we found on the sale page itself: the Air Max Muse is listed twice, at S$114.50 and at S$137.40, and the only difference is the colourway.

McDonald's Singapore posted its School Holiday Special on Saturday evening: a free Mini Cone for kids, at every McDonald's restaurant in Singapore, until 13 September. That is the whole announcement, and it is worth reading closely, because the brand's own caption confirms only three things (free, for kids, all outlets) and the poster carries no fine print at all. Four conditions every deal listing has quietly filled in for itself are not stated anywhere McDonald's publishes: there is no age cut-off, no purchase requirement, no per-child limit and no stock caveat in anything the company has put out. The promo window also lands exactly on the September school break, 5 to 13 September, and the poster's own wording (ARE BACK) confirms this is a returning format rather than a one-off, the same giveaway having run to 31 March during the March holidays.

BreadTalk is selling bun packages in its Rewards app until 30 September, and the poster gives the campaign a name the deal listings dropped: the Breadwinner Bundle. Fifteen buns cost $32, thirty cost $59, and both come with a strip of bonus vouchers BreadTalk values at $12.30 and $25.60. The arithmetic underneath is less generous than the headline. The vouchers only work on buns priced $2.50 or below, which sets the package's break-even at $2.13 a bun on the 15-pack and $1.97 on the 30-pack, so on the smaller package a household that buys $2.00 buns ends the month $2 worse off than if it had paid cash. Roughly 40% of the advertised bonus value sits in a single voucher for a 6-inch whole cake. And the three-month clock runs from the day you buy, not from 30 September, which makes the last day of the month the best day to buy.

Guzman y Gomez runs $6 Minis on the 6th of every month, and September's falls on Sunday 6 September 2026. GYG has never published the running hours in prose, but its own homepage answers the question anyway: the campaign slide is wrapped in a script that shows it only when the date is the 6th and the clock is between 10.30am and 11pm, which is the tightest window the brand itself will admit to. The banner's fine print adds the part that decides where you go, and it is dine-in and takeaway only, with the GYG app named for pickup. Delivery is out. Then the calendar does its own damage. Because the 6th is a Sunday this month, the two office-district outlets, Mapletree Business City and Ocean Financial Centre, are closed all weekend, so 21 of the 23 restaurants on GYG's own store finder are trading. Of those 21, only four are still open at the 11pm end of the window: Dunearn Village, Orchard Gateway and The Star Vista run to midnight, and VivoCity stops at exactly 11pm. Twelve close at 10pm, three at 10.30pm, and Funan and Our Tampines Hub shut at 9.30pm. The 10.30am start matters too, because most outlets open at 8am for breakfast and none of those first two and a half hours count. GYG does not publish an a la carte Mini price on its own menu page at all; the only Mini price it publishes anywhere is the $9.90 Mini Meal, the Mini plus a side, so $6 is at least $3.90 under the cheapest Mini deal the brand itself prints.

POPULAR's Tech-Tastic Deals runs 4 to 13 September 2026 at up to 70% off gadgets and IT, and two things about it are worth knowing before you go. First, it is not a POPULAR-wide sale: the brand's own e-flyer names eight stores (Bras Basah Complex, Causeway Point, NEX, Northpoint City, Tampines Mall, Toa Payoh HDB Hub, Waterway Point, Westgate) and there is no online version. Second, the in-store price beat POPULAR's own website on every item we checked on 5 September, including a Sony WH-CH520 at $49 against $69 online where it is also out of stock. As for the headline, the flyer prints a usual price on 32 lines and exactly two of them reach 70%. The Lenovo laptops are 11% off and the Switch 2 bundle is 6% off. And the fine print is blunt: the promotion is not valid with any other discount, so the usual 10% POPULAR Card discount does not stack.

Crocodile's warehouse sale is running at 53 Ubi Avenue 3 until Sunday 13 September, 11am to 7pm daily, at up to 80% off men's and ladies' apparel, innerwear and accessories. Two things the deal listings get wrong. The floor: several of them put the sale on Level 1, while Crocodile's own poster and Instagram post both say Level 4, and Travelite Building is an industrial block where that costs you a walk. And the ceiling: one site headlines up to 90% off, while the brand's own artwork says 80%. The floor prices doing the rounds (tees $10, singlets 2 for $10, polos $15, jeans $30, Delsey 3-piece sets $299) are from a deal site's reading of the in-store price boards, not from Crocodile, so we have labelled them as such. Payment is cash, NETS, card or PayNow, and nothing is returnable, exchangeable or refundable.

Subway Singapore put five all-new Breakfast Wraps on its own site on 2 September, from $3.90, served from opening until 11am daily. On Monday 7 September 2026, and that morning only, its 'Good Morning is calling' poster gives you a second wrap free when you buy any Breakfast Wrap and Coffee set before 11am. The catch is in the pricing rule: when the two wraps differ in price, the higher-priced one is charged and the cheaper one is the freebie, so mixing an entry-price wrap into your order caps the whole deal at $3.90 of value. Order two of the same premium wrap and the free one is worth the same as the one you paid for. Six outlets are cut out, including the three that make the most sense at breakfast: Jewel Changi Airport, Changi Airport Terminal 1 and Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal.

Atrium Restaurant's halal 1-for-1 does not stop when the Nyonya buffet closes on 9 September. From 10 September to 22 November 2026 the hotel replaces it with a Wagyu Beef, Seafood and Suhaimi's Buffet built with Suhaimi Yusof, and the 1-for-1 still covers every adult diner, with kids 5 and under free. Dinner is $128++ per adult Monday to Thursday and $138++ Friday to Sunday and public holidays, so two people split one cover: about $64++ each on a weeknight, which is $76.74 nett once the 10% service charge and 9% GST land, and $82.73 at the weekend. Two things the hotel's own offers page does not tell you. The first is that lunch keeps its 1-for-1 too: the restaurant's booking system lists a 1-for-1 International Weekday Lunch Buffet at $99++ and a weekend one at $109++ for the same 10 September to 22 November window, which is $59.35 nett a head and the cheapest way through the door. The second is that the 55% off table-of-five weekday dinner bundle, which beat the 1-for-1 on price all through August, is listed only to 9 September with nothing replacing it. Dinner also costs $9 more than the Nyonya menu it succeeds, and the bamboo lobster on the seafood-on-ice counter is weekends only.

LAC has a 9.9 Sale running on lac.sg to Thursday 10 September 2026, and its own category page publishes the whole ladder in one line: Buy 1 Free 1 with $319 spend, then a $9 rebate at $299, $19 at $499, $39 at $699 and $99 at $999. Do the division and the rebate is the weakest thing on the poster. Nine dollars off $299 is 3.0%, and even the top tier only reaches 9.9%. The number that actually matters is $319. Stop at $299 and you take $9. Spend $20 more and a second copy of an item already in your basket comes free, which on LAC's $96.76 member-priced Probiotic Complex is $96.76 plus the $9 you still qualify for, or about a third off the basket. Two more things the write-ups miss. Below $299 the 9.9 sale pays nothing at all, while LAC's separate World Heart Day codes take 38% off any three supplements with no minimum spend, so small baskets should ignore 9.9 entirely. And the in-store version of this sale is worse than the online one: the brand's own poster prices the second same supplement at $9.90 in store, against free on the website.

The Cheesy Omelette that Pepper Lunch first served in 2012 is back on the Singapore menu from 1 September to 2 November 2026, while stocks last, in three sets that all include a drink: Beef Slices at $16.90, Chicken Steak at $16.90 and Striploin Steak at $20.90. Riding with it is a game called Sizzle. Tear. WIN!, and the rule is simple: one tear-to-reveal card for every Cheesy Omelette ordered, with prizes running from a free Cheesy Omelette to 1-for-1 and 2-for-1 vouchers, sides and ice cream. Here is the part the coverage keeps burying. The campaign does not run to 2 November. The poster prints two shorter dates: cards are only handed out from 1 September to 18 October, and whatever you win has to be redeemed by 31 October. The free dish is also narrower than it sounds, because the printed terms limit it to a Beef Slices or Chicken Steak Cheesy Omelette on your next dine-in visit, so the $20.90 striploin is not on the table and you cannot claim it on the same meal that produced the card.

Sheng Siong opened its Rivervale Mall store on Thursday 4 September 2026, and posted the full opening advertisement to its own corporate site the same morning. The store is at 11 Rivervale Crescent #03-01, trades 7am to 11pm daily, and the ad prints one line that decides how you read every price on it: Exclusive @ 11 Rivervale Crescent, Rivervale Mall. This is a 7 Days Special, 4 to 10 September only, at one address. The headline is a Purchase-with-Purchase: every $88 spent lets you buy a Frozen Cooked King Crab Cluster 500/700 at $18.80 against a usual $69.43, capped at 4 pieces. Two free gifts sit on lower spends, a Softess kitchen towel at $30 and a 12-roll 4-ply tissue bundle at $70, one redemption per receipt, with cigarettes, liquor, Sheng Siong vouchers and infant milk powder stages 1 and 2 taken out of the spend. Three things the reposts drop. The 3-unit cap applies per product per customer per transaction, which matters because the deepest cuts on the sheet are multi-buys of two or three. The beverage cartons are quoted before the BCRS deposit, so the $10.95 Coca-Cola carton is $13.35 at the till and you get the $2.40 back when you return the cans. And the two loyalty discounts printed at the bottom are day-gated: seniors get 4% on Tuesdays and Wednesdays only, CHAS Blue on Thursdays and CHAS Orange on Fridays, which inside this 7-day window means 8 and 9 September for seniors, 10 September for Blue and today for Orange.

Din Tai Fung put a four-month card offer on its own site on 1 September, and it is one of the few restaurant freebies here that runs long enough to plan around: a complimentary Original Hot & Sour Soup (small), which the brand's own poster values at $9.50, on a minimum spend of $80, for OCBC credit and debit cardmembers, from 1 September to 31 December 2026. Two lines on that poster decide whether it is worth walking in for. The first is that the $80 and the $9.50 are both stated before GST and service charge, so at Din Tai Fung's usual 10% service charge and 9% GST the bar you actually have to clear is $95.92 at the till, and the soup you get back is worth $11.39. The second is the time. This is a weekday-only, dine-in-only offer with two windows, 11am to 2pm and 4.30pm to 6pm, so a 7pm dinner does not qualify at all. The good news is a second Din Tai Fung poster settles a question the soup poster leaves open: the September to October Crispy Wanton Noodle offer says in its own terms that its 10% OCBC discount can be combined with the $80 soup offer, which makes those two the one pairing you know stacks.

IHG Hotels & Resorts has opened Stay 3 Nights, Pay 2 on suites and premium rooms across Asia Pacific, and the two dates are nothing alike: you can only book it from 1 to 30 September 2026, but the stays it buys run from 4 September 2026 all the way to 30 June 2027, which covers the December break, Chinese New Year and next June's school holidays. Every third consecutive night is free and the rate includes daily breakfast for up to two guests. The catch for readers here is the participating list. IHG's own South East Asia and South Korea page names 55 hotels and exactly two of them are in Singapore, InterContinental Singapore Robertson Quay and Hotel Indigo Singapore Katong, so this is a regional-travel deal far more than a staycation one. Bali alone has 13 hotels in it and Thailand has 18.

Popeyes Singapore announced its Ultimate Chicken Bucket on its own Facebook page on 2 September: four pieces of Signature Chicken for $12 against a usual $19.60, a 38% cut worth $7.60, running 3 to 20 September 2026. That works out at $3 a piece instead of $4.90. The fine print along the bottom of the brand's poster is short and strict: dine-in and takeaway only, excluding Changi Airport T1, so delivery and the app are out; no choosing of chicken parts; each bucket comes in one fixed flavour, classic or spicy, with no mixing; not valid in conjunction with any other promotions, discounts or privileges; while stocks last. That last line is what decides your fortnight. Popeyes' own offers page still lists Louisiana Chicken Wednesday, a 4pc bucket at $10 every Wednesday from 11am to 10pm, and inside this run that falls on Wednesday 9 and Wednesday 16 September. On those two days the 38%-off promotion costs $2 more than simply walking in, for the same four pieces. Two Mondays are awkward as well: Buttermilk Tenders Monday puts a 7pc Tenders Bucket at $10.90 on 7 and 14 September, cheaper and three pieces longer, though boneless. And the run's last day, Sunday 20 September, is the first day of Popeyes Week, when $3 more buys the $15 Bucket Set with 4pc Signature Chicken, 3pc Buttermilk Tenders and a large drink. On the other 13 days of the run, the $12 bucket is the cheapest bone-in chicken Popeyes has on the board.

Kee Song's premium Sakura Chicken line goes on sale at 22 named Giant stores from 3 to 16 September 2026, and Giant's own flyer prices four cuts: Sakura Chicken Breast 350g at 2 for $11.50 (was $12.80), Sakura Chicken Cut 12 Portion 1kg at $13.90 (was $14.50), Sakura Chicken Drumsticks 200g at $3.10 (was $3.40) and Sakura Chicken Boneless Legs 350g at 2 for $14.50 (was $16). Two things the deal blogs covering this have not said. First, the biggest percentage cut is not the best value: the breast bundle takes 10% off but works out at $16.43 a kilo, while the Cut 12 Portion takes only 4% off and is the cheapest thing on the flyer at $13.90 a kilo. Second, Giant's own flyer carries a $100,000 yuu Points lucky draw on a $30 Sakura Chicken spend that runs to 30 September, two weeks past the price promo, and the write-ups have replaced it with a launch-day thermal bag that Giant's flyer does not mention at all. One item is also cheaper direct: Kee Song's own shop sells the same Cut 12 Portion 1kg at $13.20, 70 cents under Giant's special offer.

Guzman y Gomez runs its $3 Brekkie Burrito on the 3rd of every month, and September's falls on Thursday 3 September 2026. The burrito is $7 on the ordinary menu, so this is $4 off, and it is served from opening until 10.30am at 18 participating restaurants. Here is the part nobody has carried. GYG published that participating list, with opening times, for 3 July, and 3 July 2026 was a Friday. This month the 3rd is a Thursday, and GYG's own store finder shows three of the 18 keeping different Thursday hours: One Holland Village serves breakfast on Fridays, weekends and public holidays only, Northpoint City opens at 10.30am Monday to Thursday, and Dunearn Village opens at 10am Monday to Thursday with no breakfast hours listed at all. Two more timings on that July list have moved: Guoco Tower and Ocean Financial Centre now open 7.30am rather than 7am, and Serene Centre's weekday breakfast starts at 8.30am. There is also a straight contradiction inside GYG's own announcement, which promotes new breakfast service at Suntec City in the body and then excludes Suntec City in the terms.

Golden Village opened ticket sales at 3pm on 2 September 2026 for To Leslie With Love: Days Of Being Wild In 4K, a GV-exclusive three-day run of Wong Kar Wai's 1990 film timed to Leslie Cheung's 70th birthday. It plays Friday 11 to Sunday 13 September at four cinemas only: VivoCity, Suntec City, Cineleisure and Century Square. The price is a flat $22 for every session and every hall, and GV's own listing says every ticket purchased comes with one commemorative A3 poster, with no stocks-last line printed on its page. Reading GV's booking page cinema by cinema gives 10 sessions, not an even spread: Friday is evening-only and skips VivoCity, Sunday is afternoon-only and skips Century Square, and Saturday 12 September, which is Cheung's actual birthday, is the single day all four cinemas play it. VivoCity's two sessions sit under GVmax, GV's large-format hall, at the same $22. The film runs in its original Cantonese with English and Chinese subtitles, is rated PG and runs 95 minutes, and GV marks it with an asterisk meaning free tickets cannot be used.

Bee Cheng Hiang's 9.9 sale went live on its web store on 1 September 2026 and it is online only, so none of it works at the counter. The brand's own campaign banner prints four things: 15% off Gourmet Fusion in 500g and 600g, 25% off the 1kg, Bakkwa Bites at $9.90 for 250g (a 39% cut off the usual $16.25), and a gift-with-purchase ladder at $80, $100 and $199 spend that pays out in mooncakes. Two details are worth more than the headline. First, the 250g Bakkwa Bites at $9.90 is cheaper than the 200g pack at $13.00, so the smaller size is now the expensive one. Second, the brand's own '9.9 Sales' page lists only eight products, while four more discounted lines sit in the ordinary Rolls and Snacks categories: three rolls at $9.90 against a usual $14.80, and Bakkwa Layer 90g at $19.90. There is also a sting for anyone who bought in August. The Mala Crispy Pulled Pork Twist 200g that went for $10.92 in the National Day sale is $19.90 in this one, which is $8.98 more for the same pack four weeks later. Bee Cheng Hiang publishes no closing date for the sale. The only date printed anywhere on the artwork is that delivery slots run to 24 September, the day before Mid-Autumn Festival.

Cathay Pacific turned 80 on 1 September and put its whole Singapore route map on sale for the month: round-trip all-in economy fares from S$354 to Hong Kong, S$424 to Beijing, S$727 to Tokyo, S$1,209 to Los Angeles, San Francisco or Seattle, and S$1,221 to ten European cities including Paris and Rome. Taxes and surcharges are already inside those numbers. The part almost every repost blurs is that there are two different deadlines. The fares themselves sell from 1 to 30 September for travel all the way to 31 August 2027. The two member promo codes that make them genuinely cheap, CX80SG for S$80 off and CX80SGLH for S$138 off, only sell from 1 to 15 September, only cover travel between 15 September and 10 December 2026, and are capped by transaction count: 500 for the short-haul code and just 50 for the long-haul one. The counter-intuitive bit is that the smaller code is the better deal. S$80 off a S$354 Hong Kong return is 23 percent off; S$138 off a S$1,209 US west coast return is 11 percent.

adidas Singapore's 9.9 sale is live, and the headline everyone is repeating (30% off selected styles) is not what the brand's own site says. adidas prints EXTRA 30% OFF IN CART, and the badge only appears on stock that already carries a markdown: we checked 48 full-price men's shoes on adidas.com.sg and not one of them had it. That makes the existing markdown the number that decides your saving. On a 10% item the extra 30% lands you at 37% off; on a 50% item it lands you at 65% off. The richest corner is the Last Sizes rail, 152 products all sitting at a flat 50%, where an Ultraboost 1.0 works out to about S$90.65 against a usual S$259. Today, 1 September, is adiClub members only and you must be signed in; it opens to everyone from 2 September and runs to 10 September.

Dreame's new flagship robot vacuum goes on sale in Singapore today, 1 September 2026, and the press release every outlet reprinted never contained a Singapore price. Here it is: S$1,799 at both dreame.sg and COURTS for the X60 Ultra Extreme, S$1,899 for the Master Extreme. Dreame gets to S$1,799 by listing it at S$1,871 and applying a S$72 voucher for you; COURTS simply prints S$1,799. The two shops then quote different usual prices for the identical SKU, S$2,499 at Dreame against S$2,299 at COURTS, which is the whole reason one badge says Save 25% and the other says Save 22%. Three more things the coverage missed: the With Installation variant costs exactly the same as the No Installation one, so choosing No Installation throws away up to S$807 of listed free gifts; neither channel ships this week, because Dreame's button says PRE-ORDER and COURTS calls it an indent item; and a leftover S$1,599 Save $900 block still sits on Dreame's own launch page behind a dead button.

Sephora Singapore opens the OLIVE YOUNG K-Beauty Edit on Wednesday 2 September 2026, and its own site is already showing the range: 95 products from 12 Korean brands, priced $13 to $75, all marked Coming Soon. The figure every report is quoting, over 20 brands and 180+ products, covers Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand combined, so roughly half of it is not on the Singapore page. Three brands missing from the published lists are haruharu wonder, HEVEBLUE and Ma:nyo. Spend $65 on the Edit for an insulated tote (stores, app and online) or $40 at the ION Orchard Launchpad only for a Tyvek pouch, so the lower threshold is the one that needs the trip. And on Sephora own campaign banner, carried by no news report: Gold members get in from 8am with gifts for the first 200 customers at Sephora ION Orchard, two hours before that mall normally opens.

Bari Bari Grand opened at the Arcade @ The Capitol Kempinski on Tuesday 1 September 2026, and the brand's own Facebook post sets the opening offer at five days: 1-for-1 on the Australian Angus Sirloin, the Wagyu Hamburg and selected Other Proteins teppans, plus 30% off the 150g Miyazaki Wagyu Zabuton, to Friday 5 September. Read the two halves separately, because they are not the same discount. The 1-for-1 list is narrow and sits on the cheaper half of the menu, where the brand's own Grand menu prices the 200g Angus Sirloin at $39 and the 2-piece Wagyu Hamburg at $29, so a pair sharing one sirloin pays about $19.50 a head. The 30% is a single-plate discount on one cut only, the 150g Zabuton at $68, which comes down to $47.60. Neither is the whole menu: press coverage of the launch has the other Steak Teppans, plus the Lobster and Lobster Combo items, sitting outside the 1-for-1, and the Miyazaki Wagyu teppans other than the Zabuton get no discount at all. What makes the maths work is a rule already printed on every page of the menu, that everyone above the age of 10 must order at least one teppan, so a table of two was buying two mains anyway. Every teppan includes the free-flow Gourmet Bar. This is the new Capitol restaurant only, not the five Bari Bari Steak outlets.

SAFRA's EnergyOne gym chain is running a September sign-up offer that stacks two discounts: a $61 joining fee against a usual $220, and an additional 15% off the subscription fee. It runs 1 to 30 September 2026 for new sign-ups only, on Platinum, Dependent, Term All-Day and Term Off-Peak memberships. On EnergyOne's own rate card a 12-month guest All Day membership drops from $1,120 to $826, and Off-Peak from $880 to $622. Each club also opens its gym free on its Open House day: 5 September for Jurong, Mount Faber, Punggol, Tampines and Toa Payoh, 6 September for Yishun and 12 September for Choa Chu Kang. Two things to check before you sign. The $220 usual fee is the guest rate, so a SAFRA Platinum member is saving against $190 and a Dependent against $95. And the promotion page lists 6, 8 and 12-month terms as eligible while both sign-up pages state the discounted fee applies only to 12 and 18 months.

Trust Bank turned four today and is marking it with a week of S$3 coupons in the Trust App, running 1 to 7 September 2026. Seven brands are in: a S$3 Kopitiam Buddy Set, a S$3 Grande-sized Starbucks drink, a S$3 Spicy Chicken King Burger at Burger King, a S$3 Prata Blaster at Springleaf Prata Place, S$3 Shihlin Favourites, a S$3 Shio Pan Set at Butter Town and a S$3 single scoop at Birds of Paradise. Trust also promises one-day mystery treats during the week. The coupons are free, they sit under Rewards in the Trust App, and payment has to be on a Trust card: the bank confirms these discounts cannot be redeemed on a DBS, Citi or OCBC card.

COMEX turns 35 this year, and the anniversary maths is the whole promotion. The organiser's media release names a specific set of price points built around the number 35: $35 items, 35% discounts, first-35-customer prices and 35-unit caps. The headline is TCL QD-MiniLED TVs from $1,679 with only 35 sets, and the strangest number on the list is selected TTRacing gaming chairs at $35, against $379 to $639 on TTRacing's own Singapore store today. This guide takes the eight brands whose COMEX offers or launches the organiser actually named, then puts each one next to what that brand charges on its own site right now, so you can tell a real anniversary price from a shelf price with a show sticker on it. The Secretlab ATLAS runs S$599 to S$869 online. The PRISM+ Spin Mini Wash & Dry is $399 against a $499 usual price. The Dyson Spot+Scrub AI is $1,629 online, down from $1,729, and Dyson's own product page carries a code that takes it to $1,479 without going to Suntec at all. Entry is free, Level 3 opens an hour before Level 4, and the show ends Sunday 6 September.

Starbucks Singapore is selling a six-voucher pack for $12.90 that it values at $25, and it is on sale for six days only, 1 to 6 September 2026. Inside: 2 free Tall drinks, 1 x 1-for-1 Venti drinks, 1 free size upgrade, 1 x $2 off a minimum $10 spend and 1 x 10% off merchandise. The date most reposts get wrong is the second one: 6 September is the last day you can buy the pack, but the vouchers run for 10 days from the date of purchase, so buying on the last day gives you the longest runway. You buy it logged in on the Starbucks Online Store or in the app, and the store gates that category to Starbucks Rewards members, so the account is a hard requirement rather than a nicety. Three of the six vouchers only pay out if you spend first, which leaves the two free Tall drinks as the unconditional value, $6.45 a drink if you use nothing else.

Sentosa Development Corporation is running a 1-for-1 offer across seven island attractions for anyone paying with a Mastercard credit or debit card, and its own listing carries a valid-till date of 30 November 2026. The seven: Skypark Sentosa by AJ Hackett (1-for-1 Giant Swing, $69 a person), The Palawan @ Sentosa HyperDrive (1-for-1 on all ticket categories, $41 to $56), Mega Adventure Park (1-for-1 MegaZip, $59 a person online), Madame Tussauds Singapore (1-for-1 Standard Ticket plus Jumanji: Safari Tours 4D Expedition and a Digiphoto), AltitudeX Indoor Skydiving (1-for-1 Teaser package, from $59, usual price $99), Sentosa 4D AdventureLand (1-for-1 on the 4-in-1 Combo) and Scentopia (1-for-1 50ML Perfume Workshop). The catch is in one line of the terms: the promotion is valid only at the participating merchant's counter, so you cannot book it online, and several of these operators price online tickets below their own walk-up rate. Mega Adventure says outright that booking online saves 10% off over-the-counter prices, and Madame Tussauds sells from $29 online against a $34 usual price. Solo, online still wins. In a pair, the counter 1-for-1 wins comfortably, and on the Giant Swing it saves a clean $69.

Resorts World Sentosa has put a kids' dining campaign on its promotions page for the September school holidays. The key visual is headed 'School Holiday Treats for Little Ones!' and dates it 5 to 30 September 2026, and the promo page names five participating restaurants: KA-MON and Syun (Hotel Michael, Levels 1 and 2), Soi Social (Hotel Michael, Level 2), Ocean Restaurant (Equarius Hotel) and Table by Pierre Herme (WEAVE #01-234). What the page does not say is the part you need: it promises 'exclusive kids' dining offers' with 'a qualifying minimum spend by accompanying adults' and then never prints the offer or the spend, and neither do any of the five restaurants' own pages. So we priced the thing the campaign is actually giving away. Three of the five publish a kids' set: KA-MON's Little Samurai Box at $22++, Soi Social's three-course kids menu at $22++ and Syun's Nyanko Box at $35++, which is $26.38 and $41.97 nett. The other two, Ocean Restaurant and Table by Pierre Herme, publish no kids' menu at all. Every one of these sets is also gated at ages 5 to 12, so a four-year-old and a teenager are outside it. Here is what is verified, what is not, and the one question to ask when you call 6577 6688.

I'm Kim Korean BBQ has posted three separate September offers on Kingdom Food Group's own site, and the aggregators have picked up two of them. The one nobody is writing about is the September Early Bird, $14.90++ at lunch and $21.90++ at dinner, and it runs to 31 October rather than the end of September. Two things fall out of putting all three next to the brand's published buffet rates. First, the Early Bird is cheaper than the 4+1 group deal in every scenario we could build: five adults at a Friday dinner pay $131.29 nett on the Early Bird against $143.40 on 4+1, and even at lunch the Early Bird wins by $1.32. Second, the Early Bird has quietly become dearer and shorter. August's version was $12.90++ at lunch and $20.90++ at dinner with a 90-minute sitting and a full hour of lunch entry; September's is $2 and $1 more, cuts the table to 80 minutes and halves the lunch window to 11.30am to 12pm. The genuinely cheap one is the Student 1-for-1, 1 to 13 September, which covers Teachers' Day and the whole 5 to 13 September school break: two students at lunch pay $15.90++ between them, about $9.53 each nett, against $38.13 for the pair at the normal student rate. All three need a prior online booking with the right code typed into Reservation Notes, all three ask you to follow the restaurant's Facebook or Instagram, and none of them stack. One more thing the calendar throws up: both August offers closed yesterday and the September set opens tomorrow, so Monday 31 August is the single day this month with no I'm Kim promo running at all.

Yakiniku Like Singapore's Members' Ni Ku Promo is back for the month, and this run is the good one: 50% off the A5 Wagyu Set 150g, usual price $25.90, so $12.95 before service charge and GST, or $15.53 on the bill. It runs 29 August to 28 September 2026 at all 13 outlets, it is for Foodie San members, and it needs a minimum spend of $40 nett. Two things nobody puts together. First, the brand's own menu prices its a la carte A5 Wagyu at $23.90 for 100g while this set gives you 150g plus rice, soup and a side for $25.90, so the set was already the better buy before the discount, and at half price it works out at $8.63 per 100g of wagyu against $16.73 per 100g on the Monday Daily Value Deal that takes 30% off that same a la carte plate. Second, the $40 bar is written nett, and the poster's own footer says prices attract a 10% service charge and prevailing GST, so a $40 nett bill is only about $33.36 of menu prices. Order $40 of menu-priced food and you clear it on either reading. Here is what the poster actually says, what it does not say, and where the 13 outlets are.

On 4 September 2026 the five major chains in Singapore are pumping RON 95 within one cent of each other: SPC at $3.36, and Esso, Shell, Caltex and Sinopec all at $3.37. That is the whole story about brands, and it is not the story about price. What you actually pay ranges from $2.36 to $3.37 a litre, a gap of almost a dollar, and every cent of it is decided by the loyalty card and bank card in your wallet rather than the sign you drive under. Smart Energy's member price for RON 95 is $2.49 outright, dropping to $2.36 between midnight and 6.30am under a happy hour it now runs at all stations, but it sells petrol at only two sites and you must load a prepaid Energy Card first. Sinopec matches that $2.49 at Bukit Timah for HomeTeamNS members on a 26% instant discount, which its partner confirms runs to 31 December 2026, though the same membership is worth only 24% at Woodlands and Yishun. The two 23% weekend events that ran in late August have both closed, and neither brand put up a general replacement. SPC's September position is a UOB campaign worth up to 22.66% from 1 September to 31 October, roughly $2.60 a litre, and the 23% still sitting on its promotions page is Ministry of Education staff only, runs 2 to 8 September and says on its own poster that it is not valid with other offers. Esso has no fuel-percentage event at all now, which leaves its standing card ladder, where the honest upfront number on RON 95 is 18% with a DBS Esso card rather than the 26.2% headline. Caltex is the outlier that gives nothing for loyalty alone: its published ladder of 14% to 19% instant discounts, valid to 31 December 2026, requires a partner bank card at the counter. And Esso's own disclaimer carries the catch nobody mentions, that card discounts may not apply at all if you pay by Apple Pay, Google Pay or Samsung Pay at the pump. Every price, percentage and date below was re-read off the brand's own site, poster or partner page on 4 September 2026.

Baskin-Robbins Singapore has put 31% off every handpacked tub for three days, from Saturday 29 to Monday 31 August 2026, and the announcement on its own Facebook page is a single line: enjoy 31% off all handpacked from 29 to 31 Aug. The 31 is the house joke, since 31 flavours is the brand's founding gimmick, and the campaign poster runs the pun in Chinese as well with a manga bull charging out of the surf under the words niu nai lai. What makes this run better than the brand's usual version is what the poster leaves out. Its February to March 2026 run of the same 31% was restricted to 12pm to 7pm daily, and its March and July runs lasted exactly one day each, on the 31st. This one carries no daily time window at all and covers a full weekend plus the Monday. Handpacked means the tub packed at the counter rather than a cone or a novelty bar, in pint, quart and half-gallon sizes, and it is the only format where you pick the flavours: two flavours in a pint or quart, three in a half-gallon, per the way the brand described the same promotion in March. The one thing you cannot do is plan the spend in advance, because Baskin-Robbins Singapore publishes no prices anywhere on its own website and its only online ordering runs through GrabFood, where delivery pricing sits above the counter. Here is what the official post and poster actually say, what a third off is worth at various counter prices, and the fine print to check before you queue.

King Koil has put its annual warehouse sale back on its own campaign page, and the headline is the biggest number the brand has run all year: up to 70% off selected items, 3 to 7 September, across more than 3,000 products including luxury mattresses, Italian sofas and dining sets. What the page does not carry is a single sale price. It publishes six hero products with their usual prices (a Hotel Collection Grand Glamour bedset at $5,129, an INCANTO Surf Italian leather sofa at $7,989, a King Koil Monza leather sofa at $2,259 and three more), then puts the actual discounts behind a catalogue you have to request with your name, email and phone number, or collect in person at the Sungei Kadut Loop gallery. That gallery is the other thing worth knowing: it is new, it is the building photographed on the campaign artwork, and it is still missing from King Koil's own store locator, which lists only three King Koil-run showrooms. The same page also prints two different sets of hours for it, 10am to 9pm in the showroom list and 11am to 8pm in the catalogue block. Here is what the brand's own page actually says, the four addresses, and what to settle before you drive out to an industrial estate on a Thursday.

Sushi Express has turned its conveyor belt into a Tetris board, and the reward is 10% off your total bill rather than off the plates. The rules are printed on the brand's own campaign poster and there are four of them: stack 10 plates or more, stack the same colours together, use a minimum of 3 plate colours, and show the stack to the service crew when you ask for the bill. The third rule is the one that costs money. Plate colour at Sushi Express is the price tier, so a table of ten of the cheapest plate does not qualify: you have to spend across at least three tiers before the crew will apply the discount. The 10% then comes off the whole bill, drinks and side dishes included, which is where a chunk of the value sits. Two brands run it and they run it with different plate sets: the Sushi Express poster shows white, black, pale yellow and green, the Sushi Plus poster shows white, blue, black and yellow, so the three colours you need are not the same at both. The group's third format, the takeaway kiosk 争鲜gogo, appears on neither poster. Running alongside it since 27 August is a purchase-with-purchase: spend $30 and you can buy the Tetris Mini Pouch and Tote Set at $10.90 for members, $7.90 plus 1,000 points, or $12.90 if you are not a member. Neither poster carries a date, so here is what the artwork actually says, what the colour rule does to a two-person bill, and where the 24 belt outlets are.

Xiaomi's campaign banner shows four REDMI Note 17 prices. Its own terms and conditions publish seven, and the three the banner leaves out are where the money is. The early bird cuts S$50 off the smaller configurations and S$80 off the bigger ones, which quietly collapses the S$50 gap between the REDMI Note 17 Pro 5G 6+256 and 8+256 down to S$20: S$499 against S$519 for two more gigabytes of RAM. The other line worth skipping is the 4G REDMI Note 17 6+256 at S$349, because S$50 more buys the 5G model at S$399 with a free pair of REDMI Buds 8 that Xiaomi's own site prices at S$59.90. Deal roundups are also calling this a pre-order window that shuts on 2 September. Xiaomi's terms say the campaign runs to 23:59 on 30 September 2026, on mi.com and the Mi app only.

Every roundup calls this deal "50% off capped at S$100". Agoda's own campaign page does not say that anywhere. What it says is flat S$100 off with a minimum spend of S$200 on room charges, which is only 50% at exactly S$200 and falls to 10% on a S$1,000 booking. The page also already shows next Sunday's code, DBSSSUNDAY32, live from 1am SGT on 30 August 2026, days before you can use it. Here is the mechanic straight off agoda.com/dbssunday, the four conditions that quietly kill the discount (prepaid rooms only, room charges only, one code per person even if you cancel, and a weekly allocation), and the rule for Sunday 30 August, when this offer and the Aug Mega Sale are both live and cannot be combined.

Every travel eSIM roundup tells Singaporeans the same thing: buy an Airalo or a Holafly and switch off roaming. We priced the whole category off the providers' own sites on 5 September 2026 and the advice is now wrong. M1's $0.99 Worldwide Daily Passport gives 3GB per 24 hours in 100+ destinations, so a 7-day Japan trip costs S$6.93. Every SIMBA plan from $12 a month already bundles 18GB to 80GB of APAC roaming that covers Japan, Korea and Taiwan at no extra cost. StarHub's 4X promo turns 3GB into 12GB for $20 until 31 December 2026, and a second Singtel ReadyRoam 6GB pack bought within 30 days takes the data unlimited once you pass 12GB. The travel eSIMs are still the right answer for prepaid users, tourists and anyone who wants a second line, so here is what all eight actually charge for the same Japan trip.

Seoul Garden has put up its first table-wide buffet giveaway in a long while, and the maths is better than the poster lets on. On the four Thursdays of September 2026 (3, 10, 17 and 24), two gentlemen eat free with every two paying adults at dinner. The catch nobody prints: it runs on the Premium tier ($39.90++) and above only, so the cheapest Regular tier is excluded. Do the sum anyway and a table of four pays $19.95++ each, about $23.92 after service charge and GST, which is 43% below the $41.85 a Regular-tier dinner actually costs you. The other trap is party size: a group of six still gets only two free seats, so six people pay $31.89 a head while eight people pay $23.92. We verified every figure against Seoul Garden's own promotions page, poster and menu on 28 August 2026, and its own outlet page lists six restaurants, not the seven being reported.

Golden Village is selling a one-off Fans' Screening of Detective Conan the Movie: Fallen Angel of the Highway on Saturday 5 September 2026 at GV Cineleisure, $50 a ticket, two sessions (2pm and 2.15pm), with premiums collected from 1pm at the Level 6 Foyer. Every ticket carries a T-shirt, a metal badge, a collectible ticket set of 6 designs, an A5 illustration card and an A3 poster, plus a photo opportunity with the Detective Conan mascots at 12.45pm and 1.30pm. The number worth doing: GV's own price table puts a standard 2D Saturday ticket at $16.00, so you are paying $34 for the merch. The reason you cannot simply wait for the cheap ticket: distributor Odex has announced the film for Singapore as a GV exclusive but has not published an opening date, GV's Coming Soon list carries no regular Conan session, and this screening is the only Detective Conan booking open in the country. GV's terms also wall the ticket off from every discount route it runs.

OG turned 64 and opened its anniversary sale today, Thursday 27 August 2026. It runs to Saturday 4 October, which is nearly six weeks, and the brand's own artwork prints three pillars across it: 20% off storewide, Rewards Points redemption, and free gifts with purchase. The 20% is the in-store number, and OG has exactly two stores left, OG Albert at 60 Albert Street and OG People's Park at 100 Upper Cross Street, both open 11am to 8.30pm daily. But the number worth planning around is not the 20%. OG's own membership FAQ says a Basic member upgrades to Gold on a $75 nett same-day spend during the Anniversary Sale, against $300 nett after it, and OG's membership page confirms Gold renewal is deliberately tied to this sale, which it says typically starts on the last Thursday of August. That is a 4x difference on the same upgrade, available for six weeks and then gone. Two catches: you must be registered as a Basic member before you pay, because purchases made before you register do not count, and OG's own terms say the Gold 10% rebate is not given in conjunction with other promotions, so do not plan on banking 20% off and a 10% rebate on the same item. Online is a separate sale entirely: OG's website lists 14 anniversary lines, all in stock, and eight of them beat 20%, topping out at a 3-pack of EGMONT Manuka Honey UMF12+ 1kg at $225 against $675.

Sheng Siong posted a new 4 Days Special to its own corporate site on 27 August 2026, and the promotion period stamped on the artwork is 27/08/2026 to 30/08/2026, so it closes on Sunday. Five lines carry a straight Buy-1-Free-1 badge: Tasty Bites Japanese Style Gyoza 200g at $4.95 a pack ($2.48 each), Knorr Stock Cubes 120g at $3.38 to $3.83 a box, Tasty Bites Fish Nuggets 400g at $8.95, Dove Body Wash 1L at $9.95 a bottle ($4.98 each) and a Cheval De Feu Languedoc AOP 750ml at $33.80 a bottle, which is $16.90 for appellation-classified French red. The deepest cash saving is Huggies Dry Comfort Pants at $19.80 for 2 against a usual 2 for $33.52, which is $13.72 off. The catch almost nobody carries over: the 4% Seniors Special Discount at the foot of the ad runs Tuesdays and Wednesdays only, and this promotion runs Thursday to Sunday, so it falls on none of the four days. CHAS holders do better, because Thursday 27 August is a Blue day and Friday 28 August an Orange day.

Sa Sa Singapore is running a Mix & Match Buy 2 Free 3 on boxed sheet masks from 26 to 31 August 2026: five boxes leave the shop, two get scanned. On boxes of equal price that is a 60% discount, which is a better rate than the 2 @ 50% off Sa Sa is running on skin care and hair care in the same week. Four things the reposts leave out. First, the poster says BOXED SHEET MASKS, which rules out the dozens of single-sheet masks Sa Sa sells at $2.50 apiece, and it says selected boxes only, so the till is the final authority. Second, the poster does not say which three of the five are free. On promotions built this way the cheapest usually come off, and that makes the pairing everything: put Suisse Programme's $235 Caviar Pre Lift box in with four $15 Soo Beaute boxes and you save $45 on a $295 basket, a 15% discount on a deal advertised at 60%. Third, the best-value play priced off Sa Sa's own store is SNP's Skin Re:Turn Essence Mask 10's at $25 a box in three variants, so five boxes is $50 for 50 sheets, about $1 a sheet. Fourth, the deal sites listing this as in-store or online point at Sa Sa's Weekend Special page, which carried a different set of offers on 27 August, and we could not find Buy 2 Free 3 badged anywhere on sasa.sg, so the five stores are the reliable route. Sa Sa has only five shops in Singapore and none of them is in town.

BEST Denki's Google Pixel 11 launch offer runs 20 August to 30 September 2026 at its retail outlets, and its banner sells three things: a $200 trade-in bonus, vouchers worth up to $250 and a premium gift bundle worth up to $118. The voucher is not a voucher. BEST Denki's own launch terms say the value is marked down at the point of sale, and on all four 256GB product pages the basket price is exactly the list price minus that model's voucher: Pixel 11 $1,299 to $1,199, Pixel 11 Pro $1,599 to $1,449, Pixel 11 Pro XL $1,819 to $1,619 and Pixel 11 Pro Fold $2,499 to $2,249. The perks are also tiered by model, and the base Pixel 11 gets the least: a $100 markdown, a 2-piece bundle worth $88 instead of the 3-piece worth $118, and none of the Google services (6 months of Google One AI Pro at $173.94 plus 3 months of YouTube Premium at $41.94) which BEST Denki restricts to the Pro series. Meanwhile the Google Store is running a bigger, shorter offer: SGD450 off a Pixel Watch 5 or SGD450 of Google Store credit with a Pixel 11 Pro or Pro XL, 12 August to 4 September 2026 only. Price a Pro plus a 41mm Watch 5 both ways and the Google Store lands at $1,818 against BEST Denki's $2,018. Buy the phone alone and BEST Denki is $150 cheaper with $118 of accessories on top. Have an old phone to trade in and BEST Denki wins outright, because the $200 bonus stacks on the Carousell valuation and Google's Singapore offer has no trade-in at all.

7-Eleven Singapore restarted its snack-and-drink promotions today, and the brand's own site confirms two separate campaigns running side by side from 26 August to 8 September 2026. The first is $1 Deals: 19 lines at a flat $1, including Pocari Sweat 500ml, Milo Gao, the OREO x BTS mini pouch, Meiji Hello Panda, Milo Nuggets, Nature Valley granola bars and Magnolia milk, with Eurocake cookies and brownies the only 2-for-$1 line on the list (50 cents each, the cheapest thing in the promo). The second is Must Buy Lobang, whose poster states 18 drinks: 6 at $1 and 12 from $1.20 to $1.70. Read them together and one thing jumps out. Pokka's 500ml bottles appear on both posters, so Ice Mango Tea and Zero Passion Fruit Tea cost $1 while Jasmine Green Tea, Ice Lemon Tea and Ice Peach Tea cost $1.70, a 70% gap on the same brand and the same bottle size, decided purely by flavour. The catch is the same on both posters: selected stores only, availability varies by store, while stocks last. 7-Eleven links a Full Range Store List for the $1 promotion, and it runs to 278 addresses.

KOI Thé Singapore is running an Arknights: Endfield collaboration from 20 August to 3 September 2026 at all designated KOI Thé and KOI Thé Express stores, and the whole thing hangs on one small menu section: the Winter Melon Series. Buy any one Winter Melon drink and KOI's own poster promises a collaboration cup sleeve, a dispatch ticket and one transparent card (4 designs, handed out at random). Buy any two and you get two of each, plus your pick of a chibi sticker or a paper coaster. Buy two and post the drinks on Instagram, TikTok, Facebook or RED with #ENDFIELDxKOI and KOI adds a character acrylic standee (Arcane, Zhuang Fangyi, Frossi or Camille). Two things the reposts drop. The Winter Melon Series is exactly four drinks, and the merch is identical whichever you pick, so the cheapest cup is the correct cup: on foodpanda the M Winter Melon Tea and M Winter Melon Green Tea are $5.30 while the Milk Tea and Lemon Juice are $6.00, meaning the two-drink tier costs $10.60 at the bottom and $12.00 at the top for the same haul. And the Suntec City meet-and-greet with the official cosplayers was a one-day event on 23 August that is already over, so anyone heading down for it this week is going for nothing. Designs are random, cannot be exchanged, vary by outlet, and run only while stocks last.

Swensen's mochi-snowskin ice cream mooncakes are back for Mid-Autumn 2026 in eight flavours — Mao Shan Wang, Sticky Chewy Chocolate, Cookies 'N' Cream, Durian King (D24), Sticky Chewy Chocolate Zer0, the new Dubai Cookie (pistachio ice cream with kataifi), Strawberry Mochi and Oriental Beauty Oolong. The early bird everyone is passing around is a Citi card offer, and its own terms are specific: 15% off from 10 August to 13 September 2026, then 10% off from 14 to 25 September, valid at all Swensen's and Earle Swensen's outlets EXCEPT Swensen's Unlimited, for in-store purchases only, and not combinable with any other promotion, voucher or discount on the same bill or table. That in-store rule is the catch, because the convenient way to buy — pre-ordering on Swensen's eStore with a collection outlet and date — is exactly where the bank discount does not apply; the eStore's own product pages say so. And on the eStore the prices are a trap of their own: the Moonlit and Signature four-piece sets are $52.50, Full Eclipse $54, Twilight $55 — but Create Your Own (Pick 4 Flavors) is $60, the same as the all-Mao Shan Wang New Moon Set, so choosing your own four costs $7.50 more than letting Swensen's choose. Two more things: Swensen's second, older mooncake page is still live and still advertises last year's Pistachio Kunafa and Chempedak flavours that you cannot order in 2026, and the DBS and SAFRA Swensen's mooncake pages still surfacing in search are dead — one redirects with an error flag, the other returns a 404.

LUXASIA, the prestige beauty distributor behind La Prairie, SK-II, Guerlain, Diptyque, Creed and Olaplex in this region, is running its Beauty Festival on Friday 28 and Saturday 29 August 2026 — up to 89% off across 65 beauty brands, in the Level 1 carpark of 12 Tai Seng Street, which its own contact page confirms is the LUXASIA Building, its Singapore headquarters. Free entry: Friday 11am–8pm, Saturday 10am–6pm. Two things the reposts get wrong or leave out. The 10am–11am Friday slot being passed around as general “priority access” is on LUXASIA's own page a DBS/POSB cardmembers early preview, limited to the first 200 registrants, and its form states plainly that submitting it does not guarantee a slot — only guests who receive a confirmation email are guaranteed entry. And the two money offers stack in exactly one place: the S$20 off needs a S$250 single receipt on a DBS Live Fresh or POSB Everyday Card (one redemption per card), while the gift worth up to S$450 needs S$300, so a single S$300 receipt takes both and a S$250 one takes only the discount. LUXASIA publishes no brand list for the sale. And this is NOT the Mega Beauty Festival at Singapore Expo, which ended on 23 August.

Sentosa Development Corporation is running a spend-and-redeem with UOB: S$60 in a single receipt at Sentosa attractions or dining gets you one free \"A Magical Island Adventure: Let's Set Sail with Disney Cruise Line\" Glow-in-the-Dark Medallion Pin, blind packed. It runs 24 June to 20 September 2026, so there are 26 days left. Two things the reposts miss, and both are on Sentosa's own page. First, the page contradicts itself on where you collect: the body lists NINE redemption counters with opening hours — VivoCity, Beach Station, Resorts World, Imbiah Lookout, Sensoryscape, Palawan, Sentosa Cove and two at Sentosa Golf Club — while the Terms and Conditions further down name only TWO, Beach Station Enquiry Lounge and the Palawan kiosk. Beach Station is in both lists and open daily 9am to 9pm, so that is where to go. Second, the qualifying rules quietly punish the smart way to buy: online purchases are excluded outright, and the S$60 is measured on the nett amount after all discounts, so a $70 ticket bought at 20% off is a $56 receipt and no pin. Also worth knowing: the card does not have to be Singapore-issued — UOB cards from Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam and Thailand qualify — redemption must happen the same day, the Palawan counter only opens at 6pm, and it is one pin per transaction, so collecting the eight designs on Sentosa's artwork means roughly 22 blind packs and over S$1,300 of counter spending.

Meatsmith has just been ranked No. 50 on the World's 101 Best Burgers list for 2026 — the only Singapore entry inside the global Top 50 — and it is marking that by giving away 101 cheeseburgers at its Telok Ayer smokehouse on Thursday 27 August 2026, from 11.30am, walk-in, one per person, takeaway only, until the 101 are gone. Two things almost nobody reposting this has checked. First, which burger. The giveaway item is the MSX Single Cheeseburger — 95g of smoked beef brisket, American cheese, house pickles and burger sauce in a house-made potato bun — and MSX is Meatsmith Xpress, the brand's takeaway arm, where that burger is listed at $12. It does not appear on the dine-in menu at all. The burger most people picture when they read "world top-50" is the $28 Meatsmith Wagyu Cheeseburger, or the $30 Premium Brisket Burger that Meatsmith's own menu flags as its best seller — neither is what is being given away. So this is $12 of free food, 101 times over: about $1,212 in total, not the $2,800-odd a wagyu giveaway would imply. Second, the clock. Meatsmith's own contact page puts its weekday service at 11.30am to 3pm with last order at 2.30pm, then closed until 5.30pm. The giveaway opens at 11.30am and the brand says only "from 11.30am onwards" — but 27 August is a Thursday in the CBD, three minutes from Telok Ayer MRT, and the shutter comes down at 3pm. Treat 11.30am as the deal, not the start of a long window. Bring a colleague, not a plan.

F&N MAGNOLIA has put Disney's Breakfast Besties artwork onto its 946ml and 200ml fresh milk and is running five collectible Winnie the Pooh drawstring pouches alongside it, from 17 August 2026 while stocks last. The reposts show the pouches; almost none of them show the mechanic. The promo flash printed on Magnolia's own carton reads "GET A DRAWSTRING POUCH with purchase of 2 x 946ml MAGNOLIA Pasteurised Milk (assorted)", and F&N's press release adds one alternative route — 2 x 700ml MAGNOLIA Yoghurt Smoothie. That is two cartons per pouch, so the complete set of five is ten cartons: 9.46 litres of pasteurised fresh milk, which at FairPrice's live Any 2 for $6.55 price works out to about $32.75. Three things the reposts leave out. F&N has published no end date — the release says only "while stocks last", so there is nothing to wait for and every reason to go early. The cute 200ml Disney cartons carry the artwork but are not named in the redemption line, which makes them the single easiest mistaken purchase in this promotion. And the pouches are redeemed in store rather than attached to the pack, so whether your minimart received any at all is the whole game. We also checked the second route: FairPrice's online store returned no results for "magnolia yoghurt smoothie" on 25 August, so that one is a chilled-aisle errand, not an online basket. And do not confuse any of this with FairPrice's own "Little Blooms, Big Adventures with Pooh" loyalty collection, which is a separate $30-per-receipt stamp programme closing 23 September 2026.

Sephora Singapore's Beauty Pass Sale is live on sephora.sg until Sunday 30 August 2026, and the number everyone is reposting — up to 20% off, no minimum spend — is not the number most shoppers will get. Sephora's own Terms and Conditions, opened from the sale page itself, put all four headline benefits under one heading: Gold Tier Members Only. Gold gets 20% off the total purchase with no minimum spend, 30% off Sephora Collection, a limited-edition phone wristlet at $180 and a tote bag at $300, with early access from 24 August 10pm online and 25 August in stores. General access opens 25 August at 10pm per Sephora's own site banner — but Sephora has not published the White and Black rates on its own page, and the 10% and 15% figures circulating come from deal listings, not from Sephora. Three lines in the terms decide whether this sale is worth your evening. The footnote on Sephora's campaign artwork says discounts cannot be combined, and the terms confirm the tier discount is not valid on sale items — so your 20% and the up-to-50% Miss Markdowns clearance are mutually exclusive, not additive. The Ordinary and Dyson are excluded outright. And the standing Beauty Pass perk of 10% off for 500 points is explicitly unavailable during the sale period, which means a White member on 10% gains nothing this week that they could not already have had — while losing the version they controlled.

foodpanda has lined up a month of stacked promos, and the calendar matters. PRO Week runs 24 to 30 August 2026 and is exclusive to pandapro subscribers: at least 30% off selected food and grocery items with no minimum spend, 50% off selected picks from Pizza Hut, Maki-San and Starbucks, and 30% off selected groceries and essentials from pandamart, Cold Storage, Giant, Guardian and Wine Connection Retail. The moment it ends, two follow-on waves open to everyone: Half-Price Hot Deals (31 Aug to 16 Sep) with 50% off selected items from A-One Signature, Starbucks and Takagi Ramen, and Bestsellers (31 Aug to 27 Sep) at 25% off for all users or 40% off for pandapro on dishes from Anjappar, Burger King, Maki-San and more. Selected items only, terms vary — check the foodpanda app.

Châteraisé Singapore has brought back its Ice Cream Mix & Match, and this run is eleven days long rather than the four-day National Day burst earlier in August: pick any eight ice bars for S$12, or S$9 if you turn up with your own Châteraisé cooler bag. Against the brand's own printed usual price of $13.30 to $15.70 for eight, the $12 tier saves between $1.30 and $3.70 (9.8% to 23.6%) — modest — while the $9 tier saves $4.30 to $6.70, which is 32.3% to 42.7% off. The gap between the two tiers is exactly $3, and that $3 is the S-size cooler bag, because the $12 price includes one along with dry ice. Since the promo runs for eleven days and the poster prints no per-customer cap, the sequence that actually maximises this is obvious once you see it: pay $12 on your first trip, keep the bag, then come back at $9 for the rest of the run. The line-up is also bigger than the five bars doing the rounds — Châteraisé's own poster shows nine: Juicy White Peach, Juicy Mango and Juicy Strawberry Ice Bars, a Chocolate Mint Bar, Chocolate Bucky Vanilla, Chocolate and Dry Mint, and two YATSUGATAKE milk bars. At $1.50 a stick — $1.13 if you have the bag — this is the cheapest branded ice cream per unit running in Singapore right now, under 7-Eleven's best Häagen-Dazs line at $1.83 a cup. Two things to check before you go: the offer is in-store only and appears nowhere on Châteraisé's own online-ordering store, and the brand's two official outlet lists disagree with each other, between them naming 38 Châteraisé-branded shops plus three that trade as YATSUDOKI and may not be included.

Goodwood Park Hotel's Mid-Autumn Grandeur 2026 runs 16 August to 25 September, and its own promotions page carries four separate offers that almost every repost collapses into one number. The headline 25% early bird (30% for Hotel Gourmet Cardmembers, minimum two boxes) is real, but its terms attach a clock nobody quotes: collection or delivery is available from 16 to 30 August 2026 ONLY. Mid-Autumn 2026 falls on Friday 25 September. The hotel's own product notes advise eating snowskin mooncakes within three days and baked ones within five — so the 25% is a discount on mooncakes you eat in August, not a discount on your festival box. It also excludes exactly the four boxes Goodwood Park is famous for: 'Mao Shan Wang' Durian at $79, Black Thorn Durian at $92, the Premium Duo at $86 and the Classic Baked Mooncakes with Artisanal Tea Set at $76. For those, and for anyone buying for the festival itself, the better instrument is the 7-Day Bank Special the same page buries at the bottom — 20% off ALL mooncakes with Citi, DBS/POSB, Maybank, OCBC and UOB cards from 31 August to 6 September, with collection or delivery right up to 25 September. Waiting that one extra week beats the standing 15% bank rate by $3.95 on a Mao Shan Wang box and $4.60 on a Black Thorn. And the early bird is online-only: at The Deli and the eight shopping-mall stalls the only walk-in discount is 5%, on weekdays between 12pm and 2pm.

Paris Baguette is the one big bakery chain in Singapore that publishes no prices on its own website, so its National Day eVouchers are the only place its numbers show up in the open — and the numbers do not say what the reposts say. Three coupons sit live on Greendot Media's NDP portal, all expiring 31 August 2026: 2 Mix & Match Roll Cakes for $20 against a usual $33, 5 assorted Madeleines for $10 against $13, and — listed by nobody we could find — a Hot N' Honey Baguette Chip at $3 against $3.80. Rank them by what they actually take off and the order flips from how they are headlined: the roll cakes are 39.4% off and worth $13, the madeleines 23.1% and worth $3, the chips 21.1% and worth 80 cents. The roll-cake coupon also carries a gate the write-ups drop entirely — it applies to roll cakes AT $16.50, and its own terms say a top-up applies to anything dearer, which on a catalogue of four roll cakes including a Musang King durian one is not a hypothetical. All three exclude Jewel Changi Airport and every Changi Airport terminal outlet, and none of them stack — which matters more than it sounds, because Paris Baguette's own promotions page is running a Buy 4 Get the 5th Free bread bundle, a weekday 8–11am half-price breakfast drink, and a roll-cake bundle of its own at 2 for $25 that is $5 worse than the coupon you would be giving up.

Singapore Airlines has reopened KrisFlyer Spontaneous Escapes: 30% off Saver award rates in Economy, Premium Economy and Business, tickets issued 14–31 August 2026 for travel in September 2026 only. Scoot runs its own half of the same campaign at 15% — and the smaller discount is still the cheaper ticket by a mile, because Scoot's SIN–KL Saver is 1,275 miles against Singapore Airlines' 5,600, and Sydney or Melbourne on Scoot is 10,625 against 20,300 on SIA. Two things almost nobody carries over: the discount is glued to a flight number and a direction, not a route — Perth, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney are outbound-from-Singapore only, and London, Paris and Milan are discounted only on the way back, so a Singapore reader cannot use them to get there. And the blackout dates are set separately per direction, which quietly kills six of Scoot's China routes as return trips: on Nanning, Guangzhou, Changsha, Kunming, Qingdao and Shantou the outbound window only opens after the inbound window has already closed. The best single number on the whole board is Singapore–New York in Premium Economy at 59,150 miles each way, and the return leg carries no blackout dates at all.

Four of the nine alcohol delivery services in Singapore put "free delivery, no minimum" on the front of their own website. Read each one's delivery page and the claim mostly falls apart. Paneco's banner says FREE Delivery, No Minimum, but its delivery page says a wine-or-beer-only cart needs S$80 before delivery is free, and only a cart with a spirit in it gets the no-minimum version. AlcoholDelivery.com.sg advertises free delivery above S$70, and its terms add a second fee nobody writes up: any order below S$40 is topped up to S$40, so a S$25 beer run and a S$38 beer run both come to exactly S$49 once the S$9 delivery fee lands. Cellarbration is the one whose claim holds, with free next-day delivery, no minimum spend and an 11.59pm cut-off, although its free same-day still needs S$150 and its 90-minute express is S$19.90 flat. At the other end, The Liquor Shop only ships free above S$500, Wines Online above S$199, and Wine Connection charges S$20 a location below S$180, a threshold that has moved up from the S$120 still quoted in most roundups. We read every delivery page, terms page and fee table again on 5 September 2026, and two things moved: Cellarbration's August Deals page is gone, replaced by a Mix & Match wine promo at 10% off two bottles and 15% off three or more, and Paneco's two-bottle Glenfiddich F1 pack has risen from S$200.90 to S$269.90, which kills most of the bundle saving and moves the value to a new four-bottle pack at S$124.95 a bottle.

YouTrip turned eight on 19 August 2026 and put a headline number on the artwork: 3% cashback, plus a draw for 8 pairs of flights to Japan, running to 15 September. Its own terms page adds two limits the announcement post never mentions — the cashback is capped at S$12, and only the first 3,038 people to opt in and spend S$400 get it. Three per cent of S$400 is exactly S$12, so the cap binds at the moment you qualify and every dollar after that earns nothing. The Japan draw is the uncapped half: every qualifier is entered, whatever number they are. Here is the full mechanic, the insurance spend that does not count, and the free four-day Funan pop-up on 27–30 August.

Takashimaya Square B2 is a mooncake hall again: the Mid Autumn Festive Celebration 2026 opened on Thursday 20 August and runs to Friday 25 September — Mid-Autumn day itself — daily 10am to 9.30pm, with 61 brands announced and 539 items live in the Mid-Autumn category of Takashimaya's own online store as we checked on 23 August. The announcement promised early bird savings of "up to 30%", and every write-up copied it, but the store says otherwise: Swiss Cottage Bakery's five SG Bundles are marked 35% off ($73.60 to $47.84 on Bundle A), Bread and Butter Bakehouse sits at 30% (its Mini Piglet baked pastry 4-piece falls from $26.80 to $18.80), Tily Tea at 20% and Rasa Sayang at 10%. The more useful finding is the other end of the range: the early bird is set brand by brand, not fair-wide, and Goodwood Park Hotel — the name with the queue — carries no discount at all, its Kum Toy and four-yolk 4-piece boxes both sitting at a flat $100. Takashimaya is also running a site-wide DBP25 code, $25 off every $250, which is another 10% on a gifting-sized order if it stacks. And because the baked boxes are made without preservatives and the listings advise eating within 5 days, buying a hotel box in August for a late-September reunion is not a plan.

Ayam Brand Singapore posted an eight-stop sampling roadshow to its own Facebook page on 19 August: turn up at the booth, complete a short survey, and you get a free pulled chicken croissant — no purchase, no minimum spend, while stocks last. The brand's own poster prints every stop and time, and there are only six stations involved because Jurong East and Tampines each get two visits: Bedok (Sat 22 Aug, 12pm), Yishun (Sun 23 Aug, 12pm), Jurong East (Wed 26 Aug, 11am and Sat 29 Aug, 12pm), Tampines (Wed 2 Sep, 11am and Sat 5 Sep, 12pm), Woodlands (Wed 9 Sep, 3pm) and Hougang (Sat 12 Sep, 12pm). The flavour being sampled is named on the second poster — Pulled Chicken Truffle Mayonnaise — and no end time or quantity is published anywhere, so "while stocks last" is the only clock that matters. The useful companion number: that exact can is $3.48 at FairPrice, and FairPrice's own promotion record has all seven Ayam Brand pulled chicken flavours on Any 2 for $6.55 from 20 August to the small hours of 3 September, so Wed 2 Sep is the last full day to pair it.

Mandai Rainforest Resort by Banyan Tree opened orders on 21 August for "Beneath the Rainforest Moon", a Mid-Autumn collection of four baked mooncakes embossed with a pangolin, a panda, a macaw and a gibbon — and its own ordering site is running an early bird of 20% off with promo code EBMAF26 on purchases made before 31 August 2026. That takes the Assorted 4-Piece with Keepsake Box from $85 to $68, and the Mix & Match box from $90 to $72. The trap is the à la carte page: the four flavours bought as singles cost $25 + $22 + $22 + $22 = $91, which is $6 MORE than the assorted box that includes the box, so there is no version of this where loose pieces are the cheaper buy. The second trap is delivery — it is free only on orders of 50 boxes and above, and a flat $35 per location otherwise, which is double the $17 the code saves you on a single box. Collection runs 21 Aug to 25 Sep 2026, the festival day itself, from a booth in the resort lobby at 60 Mandai Lake Road, 10am–7.30pm daily.

We first checked these eight stores on 22 August 2026, in the week the back-to-school campaigns were winding down. We went back on 5 September and found that six of the eight had changed their offer completely. The three biggest moves are all worth money. Courts cut its cheapest laptop by S$200, to S$599, and at the same time threw out the six-step discount ladder that used to pay nothing below a $1,000 basket, replacing it with a flat "$9 off every $90 spent" that pays that S$599 machine S$54. HP retired Back to School and code BTSHP altogether, and the code that replaced it, HP99TECH, is badged on individual models at up to S$1,000 off, the largest single cut on this page. And Challenger swapped its whole set of education codes for COMEX ones that expire at 23:59 on Sunday 6 September, which makes this week the tightest deadline in the roundup. This guide lists the code, the real number and the actual end date for each of the eight, all read off the stores' own Singapore sites.

Esso Singapore has put an instant 23% off all Esso Synergy fuels for every Esso Smiles cardholder, and the poster gives the window to the minute: 21 August 2026, 12pm to 24 August 2026, 12pm — a true 72 hours, at all 58 Esso service stations, every one of which its own locator lists as open 24 hours. It is more than double the 10% a Smiles Classic card normally earns you (5% site discount plus 5% Smiles discount), so on a 50-litre fill of Synergy Extra at the $3.37 board price you save about $38.76 instead of $16.85. The catch is the sentence most coverage skips: the discount is capped at 23% in all circumstances and is NOT stackable with site discounts, bank card offers or any other promotion — and Esso's own promotions page advertises stacks that go higher. A DBS Esso card is billed at up to 26.2% on Synergy Supreme+ and 24.2% on the rest, Citibank at up to 25.7% and OCBC at up to 24.24%, all of which beat 23% on paper. Trust (19%), DBS Insignia (20%/18%), DBS Vantage (19%/18%) and any other DBS card (15.2%) do not. And if you hold no petrol card at all, this is the best pump price you will see this month — the Smiles Classic card is free to pick up at any station counter, so you can join and use it on the same visit.

PAUL Singapore has cut its box of 12 mini macarons from $25.90 to $15.90 for Teacher's Day, and the box comes with a fill-in sleeve so it can be personalised with the teacher's name and yours. The French bakery announced it on its own Instagram on 14 August with the window 20 August to 7 September 2026, and confirmed on its own Facebook page on 21 August that the offer is now open. At $15.90 for twelve that is about $1.33 a macaron against $2.16 at the usual price - a $10 saving, or 38.6% off. The date to watch is not 7 September, though. MOE's own 2026 calendar puts Teachers' Day on Friday 4 September and the Term III-IV school break on Saturday 5 to Sunday 13 September, so schools mark the day on Thursday 3 September and the promo's last three days land when there is nobody at school to hand it to. Two more things PAUL's post does not mention: three of its ten outlets are CBD counters that close on Saturday afternoon or all weekend, and the Changi Terminal 1 store sits in the departure and transit lounge, past immigration.

MILO Singapore has put a free pair of limited-edition MILO Sports Day Socks inside every MILO Van Sachets Promotional Pack — $8.95 for 12 x 26g at FairPrice, rolling out at major supermarkets and e-retailers from 18 August 2026, while stocks last. There are six designs — MILO MVP, Cheerleader, Fan, NAPFA Gold, Hunters and Repeat Queuers — and the pack's own small print is the catch: one RANDOM pair in every pack, free size, no way to pick. On FairPrice Online the design is explicitly at FairPrice's own discretion. Run the collector maths and completing all six by luck alone takes about 15 packs — roughly $132 and 176 sachets of MILO. Worth knowing before you stock up: at the identical $8.95, MILO's Original 16-sachet pack holds 480g of powder against the Van pack's 312g, so the Van pack is the most expensive MILO sachet per gram on the shelf. You are paying for the Van recipe and the socks, not for volume.

Metro has extended its DELSEY PARIS luggage trade-in to 30 September 2026: bring in a used suitcase at Metro Paragon or Metro Causeway Point and take 40% off a new DELSEY PARIS case from two collections, TURENNE 2.0 and CADENCE, which Metro's own artwork prices at a usual $519 to $709. Metro's Instagram announcement on 19 August 2026 says only "exclusive trade-in savings" — the 40% and the price band appear nowhere in the caption, they are printed on the campaign poster attached to it. That gap matters, because 40% off this band is $207.60 to $283.60 in real money, and retail prices here already include GST, so $519 becomes $311.40 at the till with nothing added afterwards. Two things Metro has not published anywhere: what condition your old suitcase has to be in, and whether one trade-in buys one discounted case or several. And there is a reason to move on this one — the promotion runs only at Metro Paragon and Metro Causeway Point, the two large-format department stores Metro Holdings told the SGX on 20 July 2026 it will stop operating once their current leases end.

Morganfield's has put its Angus Ribeye on 1-for-1 for ten days: two 300g Angus Ribeye steaks for $42.90++, served with French fries and garden salad, from 21 to 30 August 2026 at its Suntec City outlet. The number matters because $42.90 is exactly what Morganfield's charges for ONE Angus Beef Ribeye on its own menu page — so this is a straight 50% off, not a bundle with a markup hidden in it. In real money: $42.90++ works out to about $51.44 nett after the 10% service charge and 9% GST, or $25.72 a head if two of you split it, against $102.87 nett for the same two steaks any other week. The catches are all in the website T&Cs rather than on the poster: dine-in only with no takeaway or delivery, a 60-minute limit per table, no splitting bills or separate receipts, no stacking with other promotions, vouchers or membership privileges, and while stocks last. Note also that the promo plate comes with fries, while the regular à-la-carte ribeye is served with roasted potatoes.

Sheng Siong posted a new 2-week special to its own corporate site on 21 August 2026, and the promotion period printed on the artwork is 21/08/2026 – 03/09/2026. The two headline items are not straight discounts: both sit inside a Purchase-with-Purchase box, and the poster states that every $20 spent entitles you to buy them at the special price — Softess Premium Bathroom Tissue (Safari Edition, 3-ply, 20 rolls x 230 sheets) at $8.95 a bundle against a usual $15.90, and Homeniks Premium Liquid Detergent 3kg at $6.95 a bottle against a usual $12.80. That is $12.80 saved on $28.70 of usual price, roughly the value of the $20 basket you have to build to unlock it. The catch almost nobody carries over from the aggregators: the Fruits & Vegetables page prints its own, shorter window — 21 to 27 August 2026, seven days only — so the $1.99 Yunnan Shine Muscat box, the 48¢/100g Thai longan and the $4.99 South Africa strawberries stop a full week before the rest of the ad. Three Buy-1-Free-1 lines run the full fortnight, and the 4% senior discount printed at the bottom is not daily: it is Tuesdays and Wednesdays only.

MyRepublic has put a second Amazon eero Pro 7 10Gbps unit into its HyperSpeed 10Gbps line-up: $39.99/mth for the first 10 months, then $59.99/mth, on a 24-month contract, with 2x Amazon eero Pro 7 10Gbps mesh routers described as worth $1,199.98 for a one-time $50 top-up. The $50 is the number in the ad; it is not the number you pay. Read MyRepublic's own terms-and-conditions page for this exact plan and three things separate it from the single-router version sitting next to it at $29.99/mth. The discount window is 10 months, not 12. The regular rate is $59.99, not $49.99. And the $59.90 standard service installation charge, which the single-router plan explicitly waives, is NOT waived here — it is charged in full to new customers ($29.90 if you are recontracting). Add it up over the 24 months both plans lock you into and the mesh bundle costs $1,410.70 against the single router's $1,020.80: the second eero costs $389.90, not $50. There is a stranger line too. MyRepublic's published off-contract price for this same 10Gbps service is $49.99/month — so for months 11 to 24 the contract holds you at $59.99, ten dollars a month ABOVE the rate the company charges people on no contract at all, which is $140 over those 14 months. Whether the bundle is still worth it comes down to one question, and it is not the monthly price.

Gokoku Japanese Bakery's collaboration with JUMBO Seafood — a komeko (Japanese rice-flour) bun filled with chunky crab meat in JUMBO's award-winning chilli crab sauce — runs 22 July to 30 August 2026, so there are 10 days left including today. It is about $4.50 a piece or $8 for two, and the part worth planning around is on the notice Gokoku posts in its own stores: buy the Chilli Crab Komeko Pan and your Gokoku receipt takes 10% off your bill at any JUMBO Seafood restaurant, capped at S$50. That cap is the number nobody prints — 10% stops growing at a $500 bill, so a $4.50 bun is worth up to $50 off a family crab dinner, and above $500 the effective rate starts falling (a $800 bill still gets $50, or 6.25%). The batch timings are being reported backwards, too. Write-ups say buns drop at 12pm and 5pm across all outlets with an extra midday release for downtown office workers; Gokoku's own poster says the opposite — the two CBD outlets are the restricted ones. CapitaSpring gets ONE drop, 12pm, Monday to Friday only. Guoco Tower gets both drops but also Monday to Friday only. The other nine Singapore outlets get 12pm and 5pm daily, weekends included. Because the promo ends on a Sunday, that quietly makes Friday 28 August the real last day at CapitaSpring and Guoco Tower — two days before everyone else. Limited quantities per batch, while stocks last.

The Singapore-exclusive Mofusand™ + Starbucks® collection is back on Monday 25 August 2026, nine SKUs from $17.90 to $49.90, on sale in store from opening (6.30am at 24-hour outlets), on the Starbucks Online Store from 10am and on LazMall and Shopee Mall from 12pm, limit 2 pieces per item per customer per transaction. Ahead of it, the Mofusand Glass Voucher Pack — $44.90 for a limited-edition glass cup plus four drink vouchers Starbucks values at $68 all-in — went on sale online only at 10am today, Friday 21 August, capped at 5 packs per transaction. Two lines from Starbucks’ own page that the reposts skip. First, the Blind Box Keychain Set is $53.90 while three individual blind boxes are $17.90 each, or $53.70 — the “set” costs 20 cents MORE, and Starbucks does not say it guarantees one of each of the three designs. Second, the free Mofusand cup bag with a $25 nett delivery spend is explicitly “not available for in-store purchase or Mobile Order & Pay”, so ordering ahead on the Starbucks app does not earn one — it has to be Starbucks Delivers, GrabFood or foodpanda. Also here: overnight queueing is banned, stores run an order-sheet system, and a maxed-out basket of two of everything comes to $454.40 against a Starbucks Card that holds only $300.

Audio House runs its Electronics Overstock Clearance Sale from Friday 21 to Sunday 30 August 2026 at the Audio House Building, 23 Ubi Road 4, and the poster promises three things: up to 80% cheaper, free $300 eCashback with every $500 spent, and an extra $400 eCashback matched dollar-for-dollar against NEA Climate Vouchers. The eCashback line is the one to read slowly, because Audio House's own FAQ spells out a rule no repost mentions: for every $100 you spend you may EITHER gain $20 eCashback OR use $20 of eCashback you already hold — never both. A $300 stack therefore takes $1,500 of further spending to clear, and you earn nothing on that second trip. Two more things we checked on the eve of the sale. First, of the 84 priced products on Audio House's own front page tonight, 19 carry a "special price" identical to the U.P. — no discount at all — and the deepest cut on display is 58% (a JBL Bar 300 Pro at $549 from $1,319), not 80%. Second, every single one of the 78 products showing an "Extra $X eCashback" badge works out to exactly $20 per $100 of net price: that badge is the standing members' rate, not a sale bonus. And the climate-voucher arm has a location catch — Audio House's own listings say those items are eligible for Climate Vouchers at the showroom, so the $400 match means a trip to Ubi.

ChaPanda has put its L-size Oolong Milk Tea with Soybean Cheese Foam (豆乳玉麒麟) on buy-1-get-1-free from Wednesday 20 August to Wednesday 27 August 2026. The brand's own poster prices that cup at $6.50, so two cups cost $6.50 — $3.25 each, a straight 50% off. The detail every repost has got wrong: the deal is being reported as three outlets (SCAPE, Century Square, Clementi), but ChaPanda's own Instagram caption lists SIX — those three plus Ang Mo Kio, Pasir Ris Mall and Paya Lebar Square. What that leaves out matters too: Northpoint, Chinatown Point and the brand-new VivoCity store are not in it, so the outlet that opened two weeks ago is the one you cannot use this at. L size only, and the poster carries a Nutri-Grade C mark at 7% sugar.

Singapore Airlines has published a new fare sale on its own Singapore promotions page: booking runs 21 August to 10 September 2026, with outbound travel from now to 31 July 2027, across more than 70 destinations. Economy to Kuala Lumpur starts at S$158, Penang S$208, Phuket and Phnom Penh S$248. Two things SIA states in its own FAQ change the arithmetic most people do in their head: every advertised fare is for a RETURN booking, not one-way, and the prices shown already include taxes and surcharges. The three card offers sitting beside the sale do not all work when you think they do — HSBC's headline "up to S$120 off" is really S$60 per return ticket capped at two passengers, its booking window is only 25-31 August, and it excludes every Southeast Asia destination, so it cannot be used on the S$158 Kuala Lumpur fare the sale is being advertised on. DBS/POSB's DBS50OFF does not start until 8 September, leaving a three-day overlap with the sale. And the Citi Prestige codes still on the page are marked fully redeemed from a July window.

Old Chang Kee's curry puff is now a pair of glasses. The collaboration is confirmed on Old Chang Kee's own news page (filed as "Old Chang Kee x Lenskart Collaboration") and Lenskart has given it a permanent collection page — but the S$150 price tag being repeated everywhere is the list price, not the selling price. Lenskart's own site shows all three Curry'O frames at S$90 with the coupon BUY1. The catch nobody has published: that 40% is not a collab discount at all, it is Lenskart Singapore's sitewide offer, carried identically by all 397 frames on the site — the house Essentials range is S$60 WITH lenses, and the ordinary Switch range is the same S$90 from S$150. So you are paying a S$30 premium over the cheapest lens-inclusive frames for the branding, not getting a markdown. Lenskart's own campaign banner also corrects the freebie: every order includes a limited-edition Curry'O pouch and dabao box, not the "case and microfibre cloth" being reported. And the S$90 carries no "with lenses" label, with the offer explicitly not applicable to progressive and high power.

Harvey Norman Singapore is running Buy More, Save More until 31 August 2026: spend $1,000 and get a $100 gift card, $2,000 gets $200, $3,000 gets $300. The name promises that saving harder is the reward for buying more, and the three-step ladder on the campaign banner looks like it climbs. It does not. Every tier returns exactly 10% of the threshold, so the shopper who spends $3,000 is paid back at the same rate as the shopper who spends $1,000 — there is no bonus for going up. What actually decides whether you get anything is the small print the banner puts in grey: purchases across different categories cannot be combined, so a $600 fridge plus a $500 laptop is $1,100 spent and $0 back; the campaign poster adds one redemption per sales transaction, so a single $3,000 order caps at one $300 card; the gift card expires 30 days from activation; and the exclusion list removes most of what a $1,000 electronics budget would go on — Apple, mobile phones and tablets, cameras, gaming consoles, storage devices, projectors, software, plus Dyson, Bosch, Miele, Sonos, JBL and the Sony 1000X headphones.

Mala Mia, the build-your-own mala xiang guo counter that opened at Changi Airport T3 on 14 August 2026, is running an opening game until 31 August: guess your bowl's weight before you pay and get 61% off it. Almost every write-up is calling this 'guess within 10g', which makes it sound like a ±10g tolerance around your guess. That is not what the brand published. Mala Mia's own post sets the rule with an example — a 424g bowl wins on any guess from 420g to 429g — which means the winning window is the fixed 10g bracket the actual weight falls into, not a band centred on you. Guess 419g on that same 424g bowl and you lose by 5g; guess 429g and you win by 5g. The other line people skip: 'Base charge still applies', so the 61% comes off the weighed food, while the base you picked — $1.00 for a stir-fry, $1.50 for the cream mala, $2.50 for any of the collagen or pickled-vegetable soups — is charged in full. And the number you are being asked to estimate is priced at a per-100g rate that Mala Mia does not publish anywhere online. The shop is at B2-49/50 in the public, landside part of T3, so no boarding pass is needed.

Food Capital at the Grand Copthorne Waterfront Hotel is running its Seafood Mania buffet from 11 August to 4 October 2026 — snow crab legs, baby lobsters and freshly shucked oysters at dinner, Singapore Chilli Crab and Lobster Thermidor on rotation, plus a lobster served to your table for every two adults. The member offer doing the rounds online is '30% off for MyMillennium members'; that is not what the hotel publishes. Its own offer page lists DINE FOUR, PAY TWO — four adults, two paid — which is a straight 50% off the adult buffet, but only Monday to Friday, only on the adult price, only with advance booking, and never on a public holiday or its eve. Membership is free. Run the numbers and a Monday-to-Thursday dinner lands at about $63.55 nett a head with two lobsters on the table for four; Friday costs about $6 more and hands you four seafood items instead of two, which makes it the best plate-for-dollar night of the week. Weekends are excluded entirely — Saturday dinner is the full $139.08 nett.

Raffles Hotel's 2026 mooncakes are on an early-bird ladder, and almost every write-up quotes the wrong one. The 20% off / 15% off / 10% off steps everyone is repeating are the IN-STORE rates at the Raffles Mooncake Booth — and that ladder has already stepped down: the 20% window closed on 16 August, so a walk-in today gets 15%, and from 1 September it drops again to 10%. Online is a different, flatter deal: pay with an AMEX, Citi, DBS, OCBC, HSBC or UOB credit or debit card and you get a straight 20% off, applied automatically at checkout, all the way to 18 September. On a S$105 box that is S$84.00 online versus S$89.25 at the booth today — and S$84.00 versus S$94.50 once September starts. Two things are carved out of every single discount, in-store and online: the S$228 Premium Baked Mooncake Box and the limited-edition flavours, which this year means the S$107 Guojiao 1573 Baijiu Black Sesame snow-skin. Mid-Autumn falls on Friday 25 September, and the booth at 328 North Bridge Road runs daily 10am-8pm until that date.

BEST Denki has an SG61 TV Sale running on its own site right now — 'up to 60% off', online exclusive, plus an extra up to $288 off with promo code TVSG61 and no minimum spend, valid on eligible TVs and audio. We pulled the full 16-item campaign poster off bestdenki.com.sg and checked every price against the live product page, and two things are worth knowing before you shop. First, the 60% headline belongs to the audio, not the televisions: Sony's WF-C510 earbuds at $59 (U.P. $149) and JBL's Soundgear Sense at $99.90 (U.P. $252) are both almost exactly 60% off, while the twelve TVs on the poster run from 14% (LG's 65" UA8450 at $899) to 38% (Sony's 48" A90K OLED at $2,499, down from $4,037). Second, the biggest dollar saving is not the biggest discount — the LG 77" OLED evo G5 is $6,299 against a U.P. of $9,499, which is $3,200 off but only 34%. BEST Denki's own product pages carry the sale prices and say the extra discount lands when the item is added to cart, with one LG listing stating the promotion is valid until 31 Aug 2026 only.

Cold Storage is 123 years old this month, and its anniversary campaign has two halves that are easy to confuse. The half people are sharing is the free limited-edition tote bag you can personalise on the spot with up to three participating brand logos and up to 10 letters of your choice — and several deal blogs have written it up as a straight giveaway. The brand's own campaign artwork says otherwise: you must spend a minimum of $60 in a single receipt on any products and present that receipt to redeem. The roadshow runs weekends only, 11am to 7pm: Paragon on 15–16 August (now done), Great World on 22–23 August, and Tanglin on 29–30 August, while stocks last. The quieter half is the better-value one — a 159-product 'CS 123 Years' price list that is live right now on coldstorage.com.sg, and it is where that $60 receipt should come from. The standouts we checked today: two Brown Brothers Moscatos for $40 instead of $62, a Penfolds Champagne Cuvée Brut gift box at $59.90 (U.P. $86), any two Tim Tams for $8, and Arla sliced cheeses at $7.50 (U.P. $8.55). Cold Storage does not publish an end date for the price list, so treat the 30 August roadshow as the date that is actually fixed.

Starbucks Singapore has brought back its sharpest recurring drink deal: buy two Venti drinks in a single order and the lower-priced one is charged just $1. It runs Tuesday 18 to Thursday 20 August 2026, and only between 2pm and 8pm each day — the morning coffee run does not qualify. It is exclusive to Starbucks Rewards members (free to join via the app), non-transferable, and capped at 3 vouchers per member with one redemption per voucher. The catch that costs people the deal: it must be redeemed in store over the payment counter — Mobile Order & Pay, the Starbucks Online Store and every delivery platform are out — it will not stack with any other promotion or privilege, and the Kaya Toast series and Reserve beverages are excluded. Customisations on the $1 drink are charged on top. Pair two similarly expensive Ventis and you are effectively halving a Frappuccino run; pair a $9 Frappuccino with a cheap brewed coffee and you waste the voucher on the cheap cup.

Eight supermarket chains, re-checked against their own official pages on 6 September. September is the CHAS month. Giant is giving CHAS Blue and Orange cardholders 6% off at every store on every day of the week from 3 to 25 September, and FairPrice has doubled its own CHAS rate to 6% from 3 September to 1 January, but only on Thursdays for Blue and Fridays for Orange. Sheng Siong is still the cheapest place to buy staples: its housebrand Buy 1 Free 1 block runs 4 to 17 September, its 7th Month promotion closes on 10 September, and its famous 4% senior discount is not daily, it runs Tuesdays and Wednesdays only. FairPrice's 500-item Price Freeze lapsed on 31 August and was not renewed. The DBS/POSB Saturday eggs-and-rice deal ended on 29 August, but Giant has opened two new weekend card offers to 25 October: $5 off $50 islandwide and $8 off $80 at Tampines Hypermarket and IMM. Cold Storage's weekend $7-off runs to 18 October. Plus the three shops most people forget: Scarlett for China-imported snacks, Mustafa for 24/7 bulk, and Don Don Donki for Japanese, whose Orchard Central branch trades round the clock. And the CDC voucher rule that trips everyone up: the supermarket pile and the hawker pile are separate, and card offers with a minimum spend generally do not stack with vouchers at all.

SUSHIRO Singapore posted its 7th-anniversary lineup on 17 August, and it is two promotions bolted together. The first is a seven-item menu: Big Cut Bluefin Fatty Tuna at $4.9++, Big Cut Fatty Salmon Belly with Ikura at $3.9++, Fresh Yellowtail and Scallop Sashimi at $7.7++ (U.P. $8.7++), Tonkotsu Ramen with Egg at $7.7++ (U.P. $8.6++), and three plates at $2.3++ — Extra Surf Clam Mayo Salad, Shio Koji Tuna and Chicken Meat Ball (the last two U.P. $2.9++). The second is a lucky draw: spend $30 in a single receipt at any outlet and you get a scratch card, with two pairs of ANA round-trip economy tickets from Singapore to anywhere in Japan as the top prize. Here is the part the banner buries — the campaign dates read 12 Aug to 8 Sep, but the anniversary key visual labels those seven prices 'PART 1 12 AUG – 25 AUG'. The menu you are reading about has nine days left, not three weeks. The draw is the half that runs the full window, and it excludes every delivery platform.

Jack's Place is 60 this year, and its anniversary 'Great Value' run has put a 250g New Zealand striploin steak at $12++ — down from a listed U.P. of $28, a 57% cut on the plate. It is live now and runs Monday 17 to Thursday 20 August 2026, dine-in only, from 5pm, at all twelve outlets from Anchorpoint to Jewel Changi Airport. Two things nobody is spelling out. First, $12++ is not $12: with the 10% service charge and prevailing GST it lands at about $14.39 nett, which is still roughly $4.80 per 100g of striploin and cheaper than most hawker-centre Western stalls charge for a thinner cut. Second, and this is the part that costs people money, the promo is explicitly not valid with other promotions, discounts, vouchers or the JP Pepperdine rewards programme — which means on Monday and Tuesday it cancels the standing Free Upgrade worth $7.50, on Thursday it cancels the weekly Sizzling N.Z. Ribeye night, and it cannot be chained onto the weekday Happy Hour 1-for-1, which stops at 5pm on the dot as this one starts. Here is the real nett price, the outlet-by-outlet cut-off times, and which of the four nights is actually the one to go.

FairPrice Foundation is running the Cheers Breakfast Club for a third year, giving away 12,000 free breakfast bundles, each worth more than $25, to Primary 6 students sitting the PSLE. Redemption opens 3 September 2026 at 1pm and runs through 6 September, first come first served while stocks last. The store list has now been published, and it settles the thing that mattered: 51 outlets, down from 113 last year, so the same 12,000 bundles are concentrated into fewer than half the pickup points. Two of the 51 close for the weekend and are only usable on 3 and 4 September, 14 are open 24 hours, and every item in the bag is halal certified. Full list by region below, plus what counts as proof your child is in P6.

Toys"R"Us Singapore has taken over the Level 1 Main Atrium at Alexandra Retail Centre for a seven-day clearance sale, and it starts today: 17 to 23 August 2026, 10am to 10pm daily. The brand's own poster names nine labels on the floor — Mighty Jaxx, Hasbro, POP MART, LEGO, YOLOPARK, Crayola, Bandai, KEEPPLAY and Jakks Pacific — plus 'and many more', which is the usual clearance mix of end-of-line stock and last-season boxes. There is one line in Toys"R"Us' own announcement that almost every repost has dropped, and it will ruin your trip if you miss it: payment is by CASH and NETS ONLY. No credit cards, no contactless, no scan-to-pay — this is an atrium pop-up, not a store, so bring notes or make sure your bank card does NETS. The other thing worth knowing before you drive down: Toys"R"Us has not published a single discount percentage for this sale. No 'up to 80% off', no starting price, nothing — the poster sells the brand list and the dates and stops there, so treat the markdowns as unknown until you are standing at the tables. And with POP MART and Mighty Jaxx on the bill, the collectible-flipper crowd will be there at 10am on day one.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf is putting its long-running topseller on buy-one-get-one-free: order a slice of Chocolate of a Thousand Leaves and a second slice comes free, from today Monday 17 August through Friday 21 August 2026 — five weekdays, then it's gone. It's the cocoa-dusted layer cake CBTL has built a following on: alternating chocolate sponge and chocolate cream, crisp against creamy, finished with a matte dusting on top. The catch is that it's in-stores only (no delivery, no app orders), while stocks last, and CBTL's own post says store exclusions apply — so it's worth calling your usual outlet before making a trip. Running alongside it: 50% off the 6-inch whole cake, on a longer 17–30 August window, which needs a pre-order. CBTL hasn't published the slice's a-la-carte price on either post, so check the counter menu when you order.

Sheng Siong's Beauty & Health fair has four days left — it closes Wednesday 20 August 2026 — and the catalogue's real value is not in the headline percentages, it is in three buy-one-free-one lines and one housebrand launch. Eversoft Nature Therapy Shampoo 450ml is $19.90 a bottle BUY 1 FREE 1, Good Virtues Co. Shower Cream 700ml is $9.10 a bottle BUY 1 FREE 1, and Darlie All Shiny White is $8.40 a set on a BUY 2 GET 1 FREE. The new housebrand SOFMI Overnight Panties (M-L / XL) land at $2.50 a 3-piece pack on a buy-2-free-1, which is the cheapest thing on the whole poster. Then there is the part that trips people up at the till: the catalogue carries THREE separate spend thresholds belonging to THREE different brand groups, and they do not combine. Kao wants $28 across Bioré, Essential, Liese and Laurier to hand you a $5 Sheng Siong voucher. Unilever wants $18 across Lifebuoy, Dove, Lux and Tresemme for a free Dove travel pouch worth $18 — and that one is at selected stores only. LION wants $18 across Systema, Kirei Kirei and Shokubutsu for a lucky-draw entry into an $8,000 prize pool. A $30 basket spread across all three brand families qualifies for none of them. Everything is capped at 3 per customer per transaction unless otherwise stated, while stocks last, and no traders.

Singapore Oceanarium turned one on 24 July, and the anniversary offer it put on its own ticketing page is the cheapest way a local group of three is getting through those doors this year: SG Residents Exclusive: Buy 2 Get 1 FREE — two Singapore Oceanarium One-Day Tickets plus one complimentary One-Day Ticket, listed from S$110. Against the S$55 adult one-day rate that is three people in for the price of two: S$55 saved, 33% off, and about S$36.67 a head. It has been quietly running since 8 July and it runs to 30 September 2026, which covers the whole September school holiday week. Three lines of the official terms decide whether it actually works for you, and none of them are in the headline. First: ALL ticket holders must be Singapore residents with an official Singapore photo ID, and ID is required at entry — so the free third ticket cannot go to the visiting cousin from KL, and a group of two locals plus one tourist is simply the wrong offer. Second: minimum 1 day advance booking is required, so this is not a deal you can act on this afternoon — the earliest you can use it is tomorrow. Third, and the one people will get caught by: the promotion is valid for purchases made between 8 July and 30 September 2026 FOR VISITS WITHIN THE SAME PERIOD — buying on 29 September does not buy you an October visit, and once the order is confirmed it is final, with no refunds, no exchanges and no date changes.

Agoda's dedicated DBS/POSB page is running an extra 20% off worldwide hotels that stacks on top of the site's August Mega Sale of up to 60% off — booking window 13 to 31 August 2026, stays anywhere from 13 August right through to 31 December 2026, so this is the deal you use to lock in the year-end trip you have not booked yet. Any DBS or POSB credit or debit card qualifies, including co-branded and affinity cards, and the discount is BIN-fenced: it only appears on the booking form after you key in the card number, so a booking made anywhere other than agoda.com/dbs simply will not get it. Two lines of Agoda's own terms decide what it is actually worth to you. First, the 20% is capped at S$50 — which means the cap bites the moment your eligible room charges pass S$250, and every dollar above that is discounted at a shrinking effective rate: 12.5% on a S$400 booking, 7.1% on a S$700 one. Second, and this is the part nobody reposts: the offer has been running first-come, first-served since 1:00am SGT on 13 August, and Agoda states plainly that once the 20% allocation is fully redeemed, a year-round 7% discount applies instead. There is no banner announcing the switch — you would only notice it in the price. The sweet spot is therefore a booking with roughly S$250 of room charges, not one big luxury night, and if the 20% has already gone, the separate DBS15 code (S$15 off a S$100 minimum spend, on agoda.com/dbsdeals) beats the 7% fallback on anything under about S$214 of room charges.

Popeyes Singapore is putting a 5-piece bucket of its Signature Chicken at $10.90 from Monday 17 to Sunday 30 August 2026, 11am to 10pm — against a usual price of $24.50, that is 55% off and $13.60 back in your pocket, or $2.18 a piece instead of $4.90. It is the cheapest bone-in chicken Popeyes has put on a poster all year, and unlike the Singapore Heartbeat delivery sale that dies today, this one is dine-in and takeaway only — excluding Changi Airport T1 — so no Grab, no foodpanda, no app delivery. Two lines of fine print decide how much you actually get out of it. First, the bucket comes in a SINGLE flavour, Classic or Spicy, with no mixing and no choosing of chicken parts, so a table that is split on spice needs two buckets. Second, and this is the part the reposts skip: the poster says the offer is not valid in conjunction with any other promotions, discounts or privileges — and the 14-day run swallows both of Popeyes' standing deals whole. Popeyes Week (the $15 Bucket Set, 4pc Signature + 3pc Buttermilk Tenders + a large drink, U.P. $30.60) runs 20 to 26 August, entirely inside this window, and Louisiana Chicken Wednesday ($10 for a 4pc bucket) lands on 19 and 26 August. You cannot combine them; you have to pick. On the Wednesdays the maths is blunt — 90 cents more buys you a fifth piece, so Chicken Mania wins on both count and per-piece. During Popeyes Week it depends on whether you want the tenders and the drink, because that is what the extra $4.10 is buying.

L'Espresso at Goodwood Park Hotel has rebuilt its English afternoon tea buffet as 'The Local Palate' — a Singapore-flavoured spread of Crispy Soft Shell Crab Sliders with Singapore Chilli Crab Sauce, Beef Rendang with Kaffir Lime Leaves and Toasted Coconut served with Crispy Prata, Butter Chicken Pizza, and a dessert run of Ondeh-Ondeh Cake, Pineapple Financier, Raspberry Rose Bandung Cake and Mango & Gula Melaka Gelato. For the whole of August 2026 the hotel is charging a flat $61 per adult for it, to mark Singapore's 61st birthday. Here is the bit the reposts miss: $61 is a single price replacing TWO different usual prices, so what you actually save depends entirely on which day you book. L'Espresso normally charges $65++ per adult Monday to Thursday and $68++ per adult Friday to Sunday and on public holidays — so the flat $61 saves you $4++ midweek but $7++ at the weekend, which in real money after service charge and GST is $4.80 versus $8.39. The other catch is that $61 is stated per ADULT only: child pricing ($39 Mon–Thu, $40.80 Fri–Sun/PH, for ages 6–11) is untouched by the promotion, so a family table saves on the grown-up seats and nothing on the children's. Weekends also run two separate sittings (12pm–2.30pm and 3pm–5.30pm) against a single 2pm–5.30pm session midweek — and because the promotion ends on Monday 31 August, the last weekend sitting of the whole run is Sunday 30 August.

Sheng Siong's 4 Days Special runs 13–16 August 2026, which makes this weekend the whole remaining window — it closes on Sunday 16 August. The poster's real value sits in four straight Buy-1-Free-1 lines: Sunsilk shampoo/conditioner 625ml at $11.15 a bottle, Fruit Tree No Sugar Added juice (6 x 250ml) at $4.30 a pack, Tasty Bites Breaded Fish Fillet 350g at $7.95 a box and Jean Fresh Frozen Roasted Unagi 200g at $13.95 a pack — each one effectively half price when you take the free unit. The deepest percentage on the whole flyer is Top Nanox laundry capsules at $38.80 for 4 against a usual 4 for $88.40, a 56% cut worth $49.60, followed by Sprite Mini at $9.95 a carton (U.P. $18.50, 46% off) and the housebrand Tasty Bites Crispy Chicken with Seaweed 1kg at $10.95 (U.P. $17.95). Two things decide whether you actually save: the blanket cap is 3 per product per customer per transaction while stocks last, and the separate DBS/POSB offer that takes $3 off eggs and $3 off rice runs on SATURDAYS only — so it lands today and then not again inside this catalogue. The catch on that one is narrower than it reads: it applies only to Egg For You Fresh Eggs (30s) and Happy Family Fragrant Jasmine Rice (5kg), not to eggs and rice generally. And the 4% senior and CHAS concessions are Tuesday-to-Friday offers, so they cannot be used on either of the two days this sale has left.

POPULAR is closing two of its biggest stores, and both are running moving-out sales right now. The VivoCity branch (#B1-16/17) has been clearing since 31 July under an "Everything Must Go!" banner and shuts for good on Sunday 16 August — that is tomorrow, so this weekend is the entire remaining window. The Jurong Point branch (#B1-41), open since 1995 and described on POPULAR's own flyer as 31 years in the mall, started its sale on 14 August and trades until Saturday 13 September: up to 90% off selected items, 15% off regular-priced items storewide, and a $5 discount voucher at $60 nett spend for members or $70 for non-members. The line most people will miss is in POPULAR's own T&Cs: the sale is "not valid with any other discount (POPULAR Card/e-Card, vouchers and/or promotions)" — and POPULAR members already get 10% off storewide every day. So the 15% is not stacked on top of your card; it replaces it, and the real gain for a member is five percentage points, not fifteen. The flyer's headline clearance items also run on two separate sub-windows that both close before the store does: the crochet flower light ($7.90, U.P. $15.90) and the LARQ bottle ($29.90, U.P. $89.90) are 14–27 August only, while the RFID passport holder and the $15.90 Targus laptop sleeve do not start until 28 August and stop on 6 September — leaving the final week, 7–13 September, with neither.

Châteraisé Singapore has opened its Teacher's Day Mix & Match: pick any five selected baked treats and pay S$11 for the lot — $2.20 a piece — from 14 August right through to 4 September 2026, which is Teachers' Day itself. The poster puts three items on the front: the Longevity Ring (their ring-shaped baumkuchen-style bake), the Uji Matcha Bouchée and the Lemon Cake, with a line promising more treats in the selection, so you're building the box at the counter rather than picking a fixed set. The date to watch isn't the one printed on the poster. Teachers' Day 2026 falls on Friday 4 September, and it is a school holiday — MOE schools hold their concerts, class parties and gift-giving on the last school day before it, Thursday 3 September. If the box is going to a teacher at school, the promo's final day is a day too late; buy by Wednesday 2 or Thursday 3 September. The offer runs at Châteraisé's Singapore stores — its own pickup store list currently shows 30 outlets — and the poster prints no per-customer cap, no minimum spend and no outlet exclusions.

Prime Supermarket's weekly WOW! Deals run is live and this one is unusually top-heavy: air-flown Canadian cherries, 500g a bag, have been cut from $24.95 to $9.95 — a $15 drop and 60% off, comfortably the deepest markdown across all six of Prime's posters. Underneath it sits the deal most people will scroll past: Prime Choice Dehumidifier at $19.90 a carton (6 x 3 x 720ml) against a usual $35.50, which works out to $1.11 a tub versus $1.98, and unlike the fruit it keeps. The rest is a proper marketing shop — whole Norwegian salmon at $1.59/100g (U.P. $2.59), tiger prawn at $1.59/100g (U.P. $2.39), pork prime rib at $1.50/100g, Australian navel oranges 3 for $4.95, dragonfruit 3 for $3.25, and Prime Choice 2L cooking oil at $4.80. Two things the posters bury: the window is Friday to MONDAY, not the usual Thursday-to-Sunday, so there is a weekday tail after the weekend crowds clear — and none of it applies at Prime Kiosk, which matters because Prime runs both formats under the same logo.

Haidilao Singapore has brought back its Student Set at S$29.90 for the new semester, live from 13 August 2026 at ten outlets: 313 @ Somerset, IMM, Plaza Singapura, The Seletar Mall, Sun Plaza, Century Square, Wisma Atria, Bugis+, Jurong Point and Northpoint City. All you need is a valid Student ID — no app, no membership, no code. The catch is the clock, and it is stricter than the headline suggests: the set runs Mon–Fri BEFORE 5PM and Sun–Thu AFTER 10PM, which means Friday and Saturday nights are out, Sunday only works as a supper, and Saturday has no window at all — it is the one day of the week you cannot use this. Haidilao's poster prints S$29.90 while its own caption and the deal coverage list it as S$29.90++, so budget about $35.85 nett a head until the outlet confirms. Set items also vary by outlet, and no end date has been announced.

MoreYogurt (茉酸奶) — the Chinese fresh-made yogurt drink chain that opened its first Singapore store at Suntec City in January — has just added two more outlets, and it is marking each one with a three-day buy-1-get-1-free run on its three best-selling shakes. Jewel Changi Airport (#B2-234) goes first: TODAY, Friday 14 August, through Sunday 16 August. Waterway Point (#01-63) follows on Monday 17 to Wednesday 19 August. The 1-for-1 covers exactly three drinks, per MoreYogurt's own poster: the Almond Avocado Yogurt Shake (their Top 1 seller), the Original Avocado Yogurt Shake and the Mango Yogurt Shake — reportedly around $8.90, $7.90 and $6.90 respectively, which puts a pair of mangoes at roughly $3.45 a cup. There is no advertised minimum spend and no app to download; the poster's only stated condition is that the discount applies to those three items, with T&Cs applying. Both new stores also carry the Molato (yogurt-meets-gelato, $7.90 in Pistachio Avocado and Mixed Berry), and Jewel gets three Handcrafted Yogurt Oat Bowls exclusive to it, from $9.50.

Mandai has quietly put a 1-for-1 craft beer happy hour on its own promotions page, and almost nobody has noticed the detail that makes it worth the drive: Owa Bistro sits at the Singapore Zoo Entrance inside Mandai Wildlife EAST — and Mandai Wildlife EAST is one of the reserve's free-to-visit zones, so you do not need an attraction ticket to walk in and drink. The offer is 1-for-1 draft beers by Brewerkz, every Monday to Friday from 5:00pm to 8:00pm, running 7 August to 30 September 2026, served alongside what Mandai describes as hearty bites and desserts. Owa Bistro is also new, and it has just launched a run of animal-themed cakes for August. Two things to plan around: it is weekdays only, so a Saturday drive is wasted, and the window shuts at 8pm — this is an after-work wind-down, not a late-night session. Mandai does not publish the draft prices on the promo page, so check the board when you order. Also live in the same free zone: Xiang Xiang's August-birthday 20% off at Dining Alley, and a free A&W Root Beer with any combo for Friends of Mandai members over at Mandai Wildlife WEST.

Chiikawa has taken over the Happy Meal. From today, 13 August, McDonald's Singapore is running an eight-toy Chiikawa collection across four weekly drops that finish on 10 September, and the schedule on McDonald's own campaign artwork is the whole story: new toys land every Thursday at 11am, two designs at a time, and each pair only runs for its own week. Week 1 (13–19 Aug) is Chiikawa as a McDonald's Manager and Furuhonya as McDonald's Crew. Week 2 (20–26 Aug) brings Kurimanju as a McCafé Barista and Hachiware on a McDelivery bike. Week 3 (27 Aug – 2 Sep) is Rakko on McDelivery and Momonga as a Guest Experience Leader. Week 4 (3–10 Sep) closes with Usagi as Crew and Shisa as Manager. Every figure is dressed for a real McDonald's job, which is the joke and the reason this set will move. The catches are the ordinary Happy Meal ones and they bite harder on a licensed drop: one toy per Happy Meal (from about S$5.95, and the price varies by restaurant), it is while stocks last with availability differing restaurant to restaurant, the display toys at the counter are not for sale, and McDonald's reserves the right to swap toys and shift dates without notice. There is also a book route — the Happy Meal Readers 'I Can' series — if the toy you want has already gone.

Joe's Outlet's Mega Beauty Festival lands at Singapore Expo Hall 6A this Friday, and it is the biggest free-entry beauty sale left on the 2026 calendar: 500+ beauty brands with up to 90% off, open 10am–9pm daily, no admission fee. The brand wall on the official site is genuinely deep — Laneige, Sulwhasoo, Beauty of Joseon, Anua, Abib, Medicube, Numbuzin, TIRTIR, Torriden, SKIN1004, Round Lab, Dr.Jart+, Banila Co, Mediheal, Rejuran and CNP on the K-beauty side; Estée Lauder, Clinique, Origins, La Mer, Lancôme, NARS, MAC, Urban Decay, Drunk Elephant, EVE LOM, Caudalie, Bioderma, CeraVe and SK-II on the prestige side; plus a wall of fragrance houses (Burberry, Bvlgari, Prada, Versace, Givenchy, Kenzo, Issey Miyake, Le Labo, Penhaligon's, Narciso Rodriguez) and new Trending China Beauty and luxury/premium segments. The catch most people will get wrong: this is NOT a ten-day sale. It runs Fri–Sun 14–16 August, then SHUTS for four days, and reopens Fri–Sun 21–23 August. Spend over S$300 and you're in the grand draw — first prize is a Dongfeng BOX car listed at $111,000 before COE, with 2 iPhone 17 Pros, 3 Dyson vacuums, AirPods Pro 3, Dyson hair dryers and POP MART sets under it, drawn on the closing Sunday at 8pm.

The cheapest National Day deal this month isn't in a mall restaurant — it's in the food court. Kopitiam's 'Feast & Celebrate' campaign runs 1 August to 13 September 2026, and the food half is dead simple: curated local favourites and signature dishes at a flat $6.10 at selected stalls across 29 Kopitiam, Bagus by Kopitiam, Kopitiam Corner and Kopitiam Food Hall outlets — but only until 31 August. Layered on top are weekend 'Spend & Redeem' activations that rove from mall to mall every Friday to Sunday, 12pm–8pm: spend $10 in a day and you get one go on a claw machine stocked with limited-edition Lau Pa Sat x Hawker Wars food plushies (chicken rice, nasi lemak, Hokkien mee, satay), $18 gets you two goes; at the keychain outlets, $12 redeems a build-it-yourself nostalgic mechanical keycap clicker keychain. This weekend (14–16 Aug) the claw machine is at Kopitiam Food Hall @ Parkway Parade and the keychains are at Bagus by Kopitiam @ Causeway Point. There's also a free 'Kopitiam Feast' mini game on the FairPrice Group app paying out Kopitiam eVouchers till 31 Aug. One catch worth knowing before you plan around it: the Coca-Cola x Kopitiam complete 3-box brick set at $38.80 is already marked FULLY REDEEMED.

Tai Cheong Bakery has put its signature egg tarts on a mid-week clock: a box of 4 for $8 instead of $9.60, at all 11 Singapore outlets, while stocks last. The catch is the calendar — the price only exists on three single days, Wednesday 12, Wednesday 19 and Wednesday 26 August 2026. Walk in on a Thursday and you pay full price. It works out to $2 a tart against the usual $2.40, so you save $1.60 a box, and there is no cap published on how many boxes you can buy — which makes this an office-run deal more than a solo-snack one. Confirmed on Tai Cheong's own Facebook page on 11 August. Worth knowing if you only want one: SG deal sites report a separate Kris+ app voucher putting a single Signature Egg Tart at $0.88 (U.P. $2.40), one per account, redeemable to 31 Aug — check the app's Deals section before you queue.

7-Eleven's new two-week ice cream run started today and it is the strongest freezer deal on the island right now — nine offers, up to 45% off, from 12 to 25 August 2026. The headline savings are all Häagen-Dazs: Mini Cups (100ml) at 3 for $11 against a $6.70 usual price — $3.67 a cup instead of $6.70 — and Stickbars (80ml) at 3 for $10 against $6.10 each, both a straight 45% off. The Devil Whisper Choco Mini Cup and the new Crispy Sandwich are $4 each (U.P. $6.90, 42% off). Magnum is 3 for $10 (U.P. $4.70 each) and the poster names the Dubai Pistachio & Kunafa bar as a 7-Eleven exclusive alongside Matcha Crumble and Almond. Cornetto Royale is 4 for $9 (U.P. $3 each), Ben & Jerry's cups are 2 for $7.50 (U.P. $6.20 each) and Wall's Toy Story pops are 2 for $4.50. The quiet best-value line nobody reads: the Häagen-Dazs 6 x 75ml Mini Cups box at $11 works out to $1.83 a cup — less than half the price of the same brand's 3-for-$11 minis.

Starbucks' most-photographed drink ever is coming to Singapore for exactly three days. The Unicorn Frappuccino — coconut milk blended with Strawberry Açaí and Mango Dragonfruit, finished with blueberry and white chocolate sauce plus Mango Dragonfruit and blueberry powders — runs Sat 15 to Mon 17 August 2026 only, in Grande size, at stores islandwide and on Mobile Order & Pay, while stocks last. The catch nobody is printing: 19 outlets are excluded, and they are almost all CBD office-tower and campus stores (Asia Square, Frasers Tower, Biopolis, SMU, SIM, Samsung Hub, 78 Shenton Way and more) — the exact shops that are shut or skeleton-staffed across a Saturday-to-Monday window. Running alongside it: the Bear-Verage Bearista plush keychains launch TODAY, 12 August, at $19.90 each in four drink designs (in stores from opening, online store 10am, LazMall and Shopee Mall 12pm), and a Starbucks collectible siren Lightbox lands 17 August, in-store only.

Changi Airport Group's Shopping Carnival ends on 31 August 2026, and the part most people get wrong is who can actually play. The free game play — scan a boarding pass at any kiosk, no spend at all — is for travellers in the transit areas only. But the paid route is open to everyone, including the public side: spend S$60 in a single receipt at any participating store across Terminals 1 to 4, or on iShopChangi, scan the QR code on your receipt at a game kiosk, and you get a play. That is a dinner for two at T3's public-area food row, or a Uniqlo run at T1. Every play is a sure win, with the prize pool running from an iPhone 17 Pro Max, a 5g gold bar and S$1,000 cash down to shopping vouchers and the four-design Changi Blind Bag Plushies. Plays scale with spend — one per S$60, capped at three per receipt — and a Mastercard payment adds one more, iShopChangi adds one more, and doing both adds two. The catches are real: in-store receipt QR codes expire the same day, receipts can't be combined, and voucher-paid amounts, tobacco and a long list of service outlets (banks, lounges, clinics, telco counters, Crowne Plaza, YOTELAIR, even the Apple Store in Jewel) don't count towards the S$60. Nineteen days left as of today.

foodpanda is adding a Freshness Guaranteed promise to pandamart's fresh groceries — its answer to the gamble of ordering fruit, meat and seafood you can't inspect first — and pairing it with two weeks of fresh deals from 10 to 23 August 2026. The highlights: 40% off Driscoll's Strawberries and 35% off Korean Kyoho Grapes on produce; 50% off brightfarms Whole Chicken and Buy 1 Free 1 on brightfarms Boneless Chicken Breast on poultry; Buy 1 Free 1 on selected Hai Sia Seafood prawns; and Buy 2, Save 30% on Chobani Fit Vanilla Greek Yogurt. All on the foodpanda app, while the promo runs.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Singapore has put its best-selling Choc Cookie Crumble Ice Blended® on a 2-for-$10 deal from 11 to 14 August 2026 — four days, Tuesday to Friday, working out to $5 a cup. It is the brand's own post, not a repost: Coffee Bean announced it on its official Facebook page on 10 August, framed as "the cure for the post-long-weekend blues". Read the poster carefully, though, because three details decide whether this is actually worth the trip. The price applies to the SML (small) size only, so upsizing takes you straight back to menu price. It runs at participating #CoffeeBeanSG stores while stocks last — Coffee Bean's own wording is "store exclusions and terms apply", and a commenter on the post asking whether it's at all stores hadn't been answered at time of writing. And the poster's fine print says it is not valid in conjunction with any other promotions, offers or discounts, which rules out stacking it on app or card deals. Nutri-Grade C at 8% sugar, per the label on Coffee Bean's own artwork. Two cups is the whole point — this is a bring-a-friend deal, not a solo one.

The viral one from the 'Hello Singapore' Sanrio pop-up: a Singapore-exclusive Mr. Merlion plush line that dresses Hello Kitty, My Melody and Kuromi in a fuzzy pink Merlion costume. They're at the free pop-up at Marina Square (Level 2, Marina Foyer) until 16 August 2026, and the price drops the more you buy — $39 each for one, $35 each when you buy three items, and $29 each when you buy six. It's the same pop-up that carries the Hello Kitty x Merlion EZ-Link card, so you can grab both in one trip. These sell fast, so if the character you want is in stock, it's usually a grab-it-now situation.

Sushi Plus — Sushi Express's sit-down sister brand — has brought back its All-You-Can-Eat for National Day, priced to the SG61 gimmick: $61 nett for 2 pax, with a third diner joining at $35 nett, and a complimentary portion of thick-cut salmon sashimi thrown in. That works out to $30.50 a head nett for two, across over 130 varieties of sushi, mains and sides. The catches are all about timing and geography: it runs on Tuesdays only — 4, 11, 18 and 25 August 2026, and the 4th has already gone — inside a 12pm–6pm window with last entry at 5pm, you get 60 minutes at the table, and it is exclusive to just two outlets, Tampines 1 and 313@Somerset. Sushi Plus's third branch at Bugis Junction is not included. One quirk worth doing the maths on: the 3rd pax at $35 nett actually costs more per head than the first two, so a group of three pays $32 each rather than $30.50.

McDonald's Singapore is running three offers at once, and all three are on its own website rather than buried in the app. The headline is the National Day play: the iconic McSpicy® Meal at $6.50, which McDonald's says is available "for a limited time in-store, via Drive-Thru, and on the McDonald's app only" — read that literally, because it rules out McDelivery and the third-party delivery apps, where the same meal stays full price. Running alongside it are the $2 Happy Treats — a Small French Fries, a Vanilla Sundae or an Ice MILO® (Junior) for $2 each, at every restaurant plus the Dessert Kiosks, but only after breakfast hours. And the one almost nobody claims: quote "car decal" at any of the 20 Drive-Thrus with a minimum $10 spend and the Iced MILO® (S) is free — McDonald's own Drive-Thru page dates that one to 19 August. The body copy on the McSpicy page says only "limited time", but the campaign artwork itself carries the numbers: 13–19 AUG, $6.50, U.P. from $8.30 — a $1.80 drop, and the same 19 August closing date as the Drive-Thru offer. Only the $2 Happy Treats have no published end date.

Singapore Airlines' monthly DBS/POSB promo code reopens on Monday 11 August at 10am SGT: enter DBS50OFF at flight search, pay with a DBS or POSB credit or debit card, and take S$50 off each eligible adult's return nett fare — any cabin, from Suites down to Economy, to any destination in the SIA network. The booking window closes 17 August at 11.59pm, and outbound travel can run all the way to 31 May 2027, so this is a code you can use now for a trip next May. The part the reposts skip is on DBS's own page: the bank lists all twelve 2026 windows, and six of the first seven — January through June — are already stamped '[Fully Redeemed]'. The quota refreshes on the second Tuesday of the month at 10am and it is first-come, first-served until it is gone, so 'runs till 17 August' is a ceiling, not a promise. Four other rules decide whether your booking even qualifies: bookings must be made on www.singaporeair.com (the SingaporeAir app and appointed agents are out), it is round-trip only with Singapore as the first boarding point — no one-way, no open-jaw — the code allows a maximum of two passengers per booking, and the DBS UnionPay Platinum Debit Card is specifically excluded. The S$50 also comes off the nett fare only, not the taxes, fees, seat selection, excess baggage or insurance. One timing note: SIA's Global Fare Sale, the one with S$208 returns to Penang, closed its booking window on 9 August — so DBS50OFF now applies to standard published fares, not those sale prices.

Personal loan advertising in Singapore is built around one number, the flat interest rate, and it is the number that matters least. What you actually pay is the EIR, and the gap between the two is roughly double: Standard Chartered's headline 0.90% p.a. is an EIR of 1.75% p.a., DBS's 1.48% is an EIR of 3.22%, and OCBC's 1.98% is an EIR of 4.19%. Rank the market on EIR instead and the order changes. Standard Chartered's CashOne still leads on the published EIR at 1.75% p.a., but that figure is quoted before its S$199 first-year annual fee; include it and the bank's own example gives 2.15% on a S$20,000 five-year loan, which is above UOB. Its SG61 cashback headline of 3.61% is a ladder too: that rung needs a S$210,000 loan, S$30,000 earns 1.61%, and under S$18,000 earns nothing. UOB sits second at an EIR of 1.93% p.a. with processing fees waived on every tenor and up to 2% cash rebate, now extended to 30 September. Third is the product most roundups miss: CIMB's own Personal Loan, which is a different thing from its card-linked CashLite, at 1.00% p.a. (EIR from 1.94% p.a.) with no processing fee, no CIMB card or account required, and an income bar of just S$20,000. HSBC is the outlier: 1.3% p.a. (EIR 2.5%) with zero processing fee and a tenor that stretches to seven years, the longest here. Below the leaders, DBS/POSB pays a flat 3% unlimited cashback on loans of S$10,000 and above, OCBC is giving up to S$1,000 back until 30 September, and GXS will lend from S$200, the smallest minimum on this list. Every rate, fee and promotion below was re-checked against the bank's own site on 6 September 2026.

Mom's Touch — the Korean chicken-and-burger chain returning to Singapore with FairPrice Group behind it — opens its first outlet on South Bridge Road on 14 August 2026, and the brand has now confirmed the opening promotion on its own Instagram. From 14 to 19 August, every upgrade to a set meal comes with a free Mom's Touch x LE SSERAFIM Selfie Cut Set, and there are three different designs released in pairs of days: Set 1 on 14–15 Aug, Set 2 on 16–17 Aug, Set 3 on 18–19 Aug. The catch is the quota — 100 sets a day, lunch and dinner menu only, maximum two redemptions per transaction. Mom's Touch has also confirmed a Singapore-exclusive Super Thigh Burger with a savoury-sweet black pepper glaze, and is running a follow-and-tag giveaway that closes 16 August 11.59pm.

Burger King Singapore has priced a National Day snack deal at the SG61 number everyone is using this month: two portions of Chicken Fries with Smoky Maple Sauce for $6.10, against a usual price of $10 for the pair. That is $3.05 a portion and a 39% saving, and it runs from 7 to 16 August 2026 — a window that outlives most of the SG61 deals that died on National Day weekend. The catch is the channel and the counting. It is a BK App exclusive, which means you open the Chicken Fries reward inside the app and hit 'Use Reward' at the counter; there is no code to type at a kiosk and no way to claim it on a third-party delivery app. It is valid for dine-in and pickup, limited to ONE redemption per transaction, cannot be stacked with any other BK App offer, and is while stocks last. So a group of four wanting four portions is two separate transactions, not one — and if you were planning to pair it with BK's other running SG61 deal, the $6.10 Rendang Burger + Milo on code SG61YAY from 11-16 August, those are two trips or two bills, not one clever basket.

Re-checked on 3 September 2026 against every provider's own site, and the top of the ranking has changed. GXS raised its 12-month Boost Pocket bonus to 0.87%, taking the total to 1.75% p.a., which is now the highest 12-month rate in this guide and beats CIMB's 1.70% with no minimum placement at all. CIMB re-published its board effective 1 September at unchanged rates and added two September offers: a S$88 cash credit for every S$100,000 placed for 12 months, and a New-to-Preferred welcome rate of 2.33% p.a. on a 6-month placement, minimum S$10,000 and capped at S$250,000. Bank of China's weekly board for 31 August to 6 September is unchanged at 1.70% on 6 months from S$500, and its 1.78% new-to-bank offer still runs to 13 September. OCBC is no longer the outlier at the bottom: it lifted its 12- and 18-month online rate from 1.30% to 1.40%, level with UOB. ICBC raised its 6-month e-banking rate from 1.50% to 1.60% on 26 August. Singapura Finance's National Day promotion has closed and its page has been removed, replaced by a counter board paying 1.58% at 6 and 7 months from 2 September. UOB, RHB and Hong Leong Finance did not move.

iShopChangi's National Day campaign looks like one sale but it is really two, and the half worth the most money ends tonight. The two sitewide codes — 12FLY88 (12% off, min. spend S$150, capped at S$50) and 15FLY88 (15% off, min. spend S$450, capped at S$120) — are both marked 'Valid till 10 August 2026' on Changi's own campaign page, as is the Maybank Samsung code MBSAMSUNG30 (S$30 off, min. S$300). What survives into the rest of the month: HSBC's AUGHSBC40 (S$40 off, min. spend S$400), the beauty code 25BFLY88 (25% off, min. spend S$750, capped at S$300), 6,100 Changi Rewards points (worth about S$31 in rebates) when you spend at least S$250 on LoveSG homegrown brands in a single transaction, and the campaign's oddest freebie — an Otter Hunt that hides a cartoon otter carrying a S$20-off code, no minimum spend, on selected LoveSG product pages at 12pm and 3pm on 12, 19 and 26 August. Here is what each one actually requires, and where the traps are.

Sephora's SG61 campaign is really two promotions wearing one banner, and they end nearly three weeks apart. The headline act is the Beauty Pass National Day Sale — 15% off with a minimum spend of $100, valid online and in-store, plus a limited-edition heart-shaped sling bag once you cross $200 — and Sephora's own campaign artwork prints the deadline plainly: NOW ON TILL 11 AUG. The quieter half runs far longer: spend $120 in a single transaction on the Sephora online store, the app, or at Sephora ION Orchard, and you can redeem a limited-edition Sephora x Maddie enamel cup — the 'Orh Orh' one, illustrated with a woman mid-skincare-routine — one per Beauty Pass member, while stocks last, from 8 to 29 August. There's also an in-app Singapore Snack-Down: vote once for White Rabbit, Haw Flakes, Iced Gems or Ding Dang and you get 58 Beauty Pass Points, a free Sephora canvas bag and $10 off in-app with the code SNACKDOWN. If you were going to buy beauty this month, the move is to spend before 11 Aug — that's the only window where the 15% and the $120 cup overlap.

Watsons' National Day sale is the quietest big one running: it started 23 July and goes till 19 August 2026, which makes it one of the few SG61 promos that outlives National Day weekend by ten days. Two things are worth your time. The 'SG $61 Super Brand Box' puts curated bundles at a flat $61 — a GNC Triple Strength Omega + Probiotic Complex set worth $132, an AFC Diamond Vision PRO set worth $120.90, a BIODERMA Atoderm set worth $100.80 — with the biggest, a GNC 3-in-1 fish-oil/whey/probiotic set, at $161 against a $341.50 usual price. Separately, a long list of health and beauty lines carries a '2nd item at $0.61' tag, which lands a pair at roughly half price. Two catches worth knowing before you plan a trip: the Brand Box listings are flagged ONLINE EXCLUSIVE, and the 61 cents applies to a second unit — so it only saves you money if you actually wanted two.

Halal Penang-cuisine chain Penang Culture has priced its National Day menu to the year: eight signature dishes at $6.10++ each, under a campaign it calls 'Majulah Makan'. Its own poster names all eight — Assam Laksa, Nasi Lemak, 3L Bandung, Signature Wrapped Otah, Mentaiko Squid You Tiao, Cuttlefish Kang Kong, King of Cendol and Kueh Pie Tee — which is unusually generous for a $6.10 promo, because it spans mains, sides, a drink and two desserts rather than one loss-leader dish. Two things the reposts flatten. First, the poster is outlet-specific: it reads 'COMPASS ONE, 1 - 9 AUGUST 2026', so this is not the islandwide chain deal it looks like — Penang Culture's Changi Airport T1 outlet runs its own shorter window on selected favourites from 7 to 9 August. Second, that '++' is doing real work: at the usual 10% service charge and 9% GST, $6.10++ lands at about $7.31 a plate, and the full eight-dish sweep is roughly $58.51, not $48.80. The brand's own fine print adds the sting: it cannot be used with other promotions, discounts, offers, privileges or discount and cash vouchers, and it 'will not be accepted after the completion of the sales transaction' — so you have to claim it before the bill is closed, not after.

Home-grown halal Korean fried chicken chain JINJJA Chicken has priced its National Day deal to the year: a box of 10 Signature Fried Wings for $6.10 — 61¢ a wing — from Saturday 8 August to Monday 10 August 2026. Its own poster spells out the mechanics: 'PURCHASE IN BOX OF 10 WINGS FOR $6.10, LIMITED TO 3 SETS PER PERSON, WHILST STOCKS LAST', and the Facebook announcement adds the sting in the tail — management can end the promo the moment the daily quota is hit, without notice. For reference, JINJJA's 12-piece Signature box normally lists at $16.90 (about $1.41 a wing), so 61¢ is roughly 57% off the usual per-wing rate. It runs across all seven JINJJA Chicken and JINJJA Kitchen outlets — Northpoint City, Bugis+, Westgate, Sengkang Grand Mall, Our Tampines Hub, Bukit Panjang Plaza and Jurong Point — and covers the whole long weekend, including National Day itself and the Monday holiday in lieu.

luckin coffee's National Day poster keeps it short: 1 FOR 1, on ALL Coffee, 7–10 Aug — and the only way in is the luckin coffee app. Pick your coffee, tap 'Select another drink' to add a second, and at checkout you pay for the higher-priced cup while the cheaper one comes free. With a Coconut Latte around the $6+ mark, two cups for one price puts a pair of specialty lattes near $3 a head, which is roughly what a kopitiam kopi-o costs. Four things the reposts leave out. First, the poster says ALL Coffee — not all drinks — so the fruit teas and the non-coffee frappes are not the safe assumption, and Luckin's July 1-for-1 was limited to selected coffee categories with the MILO collab drinks carved out; check what the app actually lets you pair before you commit. Second, it does not stack — the deal cannot be combined with vouchers or other in-app promotions, so your $0.99 new-user cup and any coupon in your wallet stay unused this round. Third, availability varies by store, which Luckin prints on its own artwork, so the drink you want may not be orderable at the outlet you picked. Fourth, it ends Sunday 10 August with the long weekend, and the two brand-new outlets at United Square and Rivervale Plaza are running their own opening 1-for-1 on drinks that runs past this window.

For the National Day long weekend, ION Orchard is giving ION+ members up to 8% back in ION+ Points on their spend from 7 to 10 August 2026. It runs across five spend tiers, from S$150 up to S$20,000, with the points rebate capped between S$20 and S$6,400 depending on tier. Participating brands span the mall, from Bacha Coffee, Charles & Keith, Love Bonito, Sephora and Zara to DIOR, Louis Vuitton and Estée Lauder. On top of the rebate, there are SG61 extras to look out for: dining treats from S$3.60, selected S$61 deals, savings of up to 61%, and limited-period gifts and vouchers (individual promotion periods and terms apply). The rebate is credited as ION+ Points, not cash, so join ION+ (free) before you shop.

Secret Recipe is running an SG61 'Shiok Deals' promotion over the National Day long weekend: buy one selected main and the second selected main is $6.10++, from Friday 8 to Sunday 10 August 2026. Split between two people, that's a proper sit-down café meal for a shade over $7 nett on the second plate. The catch that trips people up isn't in the fine print — it's the map. Secret Recipe's Plaza Singapura outlet closed permanently after 27 July 2026 as part of the mall's revamp, so the chain is now down to a SINGLE Singapore outlet: Toa Payoh HDB Hub (470 Lorong 6 Toa Payoh, #01-71), open 11am–9.30pm daily. If you were planning to swing by the Orchard branch, it isn't there any more. The brand's poster doesn't publish which mains count as 'selected' or what the first main costs, and marks the offer '*T&Cs apply' — so confirm the qualifying list at the outlet before you order.

Klook's "Double Down This 8.8" campaign is live, and the sitewide promo codes for everyone drop at 1000hrs on 8 August 2026 — $20 off min spend $300, $45 off min spend $550, and $80 off min spend $800, all expiring at 2359hrs the same day or once fully redeemed, whichever comes first. Gold and Platinum members already got early access at 10am today: $35 off min $450 and $55 off min $600, valid till 2359hrs on 8 Aug. Three things worth knowing before you queue. First, the promotions are valid for one-time use per user account — you pick ONE code, you don't run all three, so the tier you choose is the whole decision. Second, the thresholds create a genuine cliff: at $780 you qualify only for the $45 code and pay $735, but at $800 you qualify for $80 and pay $720 — spending $20 more costs you $15 less. Third, Klook's own banner advertises "up to $100 OFF Sitewide", and no $100 sitewide code appears anywhere in the published terms; the largest one listed is $80. Card and payment-partner offers sit on a separate page and, per Klook's terms, can't be stacked into the same transaction anyway.

Eu Yan Sang has put its Essence of Chicken range on Buy 1 Free 1 for the National Day long weekend — its own campaign artwork reads 'Daily Nourishment For The Whole Family, BUY 1 FREE 1, Limited Time Only! 6-10 AUG'. Four bottles-of-six qualify, and the brand lists them on its site at Traditional $19.90, Goji Berries & Red Dates $24.90, Ginkgo Biloba Leaf $27.90 and American Ginseng, Cordyceps & Huaishan $35.90. Two things the listing sites left out, both of which decide what you actually pay. First, Eu Yan Sang files this under 'Weekend Crazy Deal (Member Only)' and every product tile says 'Login for EuRewards Members' — so it is not an open shelf price, you need a (free) EuRewards account. Second, the asterisk on the artwork reads 'Free item will be the item of the lowest value', which means the saving is always capped at the CHEAPER of your two boxes: pair two identical boxes and you get a clean 50% off, but pair a $19.90 Traditional with a $35.90 Ginseng and you pay $35.90 for $55.80 of goods — 35.7% off, not half price. Here is the per-bottle maths for all four, the pairing that actually gets you 50%, and the delivery terms.

FairPrice's SG61-themed Return Voucher went live today: spend $61 nett in a single receipt at any FairPrice, FairPrice Finest, FairPrice Xtra or Unity store between 6 and 16 August 2026 and you get a $6 Return Voucher back — 9.8% returned, and FairPrice's own terms say it applies with any form of payment, which includes paying with your CDC Supermarket Vouchers. Three things the reposts leave out. First, it counts in whole $61 blocks, not pro-rata: a $121 receipt earns one voucher, $122 earns two, and the cap is three vouchers per transaction — so anything above $183 in a single receipt earns nothing extra, and a big shop is worth splitting across receipts rather than consolidating. Second, it is in-store only — FairPrice's terms state the voucher is not valid for online purchases at FairPrice, in either direction, so a RedMart-style online order neither earns nor spends one. Third, you cannot use it on the same trip: vouchers may only be redeemed a day after the date of issuance, and everything expires on 31 August 2026 with no extension. Scan & Go and SmartCart shoppers don't get a printed slip either — theirs lands in the app's Voucher Wallet within 4 working days.

CHAGEE is opening two new Singapore stores on the same weekend — Bedok Mall (#01-39/40) and Sengkang Grand Mall, both now live on CHAGEE's own store locator — and marking it with a two-day Grand Opening Bundle: 2 Large Fresh Milk Teas with the second cup at 50% off, for $8.85. That works out to about $4.43 a cup, and because the bundle is one-and-a-half cups' worth of money, it prices a large at $5.90 — a $2.95 saving on two. Three drinks qualify: BO•YA Jasmine Green Milk Tea (the chain's best-seller), Peach Oolong Milk Tea and Da Hong Pao Milk Tea. Two catches the listing sites gloss over: the bundle is available ONLY at these two outlets — not at any of CHAGEE's other Singapore stores — and the free Tear & Win cup upgrade, whose prize wall includes a smartphone, a CHAGEE tote, perfume and a tumbler, is for in-app purchases only, so Grab delivery and Grab pickup orders don't count. Both run 7–8 August 2026 while stocks last, and app orders must be collected within two hours of being marked ready.

CapitaLand's West The Sale is back for a sixth edition and it starts today: five days, two malls — IMM, Singapore's largest outlet mall with 90-plus outlet stores, and Westgate next door in Jurong East — with store-level markdowns advertised up to 90% off. The rewards layer is where the real money is, and it is entirely CapitaStar-app-driven. Key in the code WESTSALE and you unlock over $800 worth of brand eVouchers from 32 stores including HUNTER, kate spade new york, Harvey Norman and Dyson (credited 6 Aug). Spend $400 at IMM outlet stores and you get a $50 eCapitaVoucher; spend another $300 on top (so $700 total) and a second $50 lands, taking you to $100 back — a 14.3% return. Westgate's line is separate: $250 spend for a $30 eCapitaVoucher. Add a 10% STAR$ rebate on F&B if you spend $80 in either mall plus $20 at a participating restaurant the same day. Three things the listing sites gloss over. First, the caps are tight and tiered by date: IMM's Tier 1 is capped at the first 200 redemptions PER DAY on 6–7 Aug (rising to 300/day from 8 Aug), and the Tier 2 second $50 is limited to just 400 redemptions across the entire five days — that is the scarcest reward in the campaign. Second, cash does not count: only eCapitaVoucher, a linked Mastercard, DBS/POSB cards and PayLah!, or ShopBack Pay qualify, and you must already have been a CapitaStar member when the promotion started. Third, UOB Mastercard via Apple Pay is explicitly excluded even though Mastercard is an eligible method. Five new brands debut at IMM this edition — HOKA, Champion, Li-Ning, Hunter and Sam Edelman — plus two new dining concepts, BYD by 1826 and the halal fish-and-chips shop Battercatch.

Science Centre Singapore is throwing its doors open for the National Day long weekend: SG Science Fest 2026 runs 8 to 10 August 2026, 10am to 6pm daily, and festival admission is complimentary for Singapore Citizens and Permanent Residents. The part most roundups skip is the one that will actually stop you at the gate — this free ticket is not walk-in. Science Centre's own guide says tickets must be booked online in advance, quantities are limited, and entry is by time slot: 10am–12pm, 12pm–2pm or 2pm–4pm. Once you're in, you can stay until the 6pm close. Free gets you the human-vs-robot science show, both waterplay games, the Shipwrecked mystery quest (with an exclusive enamel pin if you do it on 8–10 Aug), all the hands-on marine-science stations, the Bazaar, a pasar-malam Food Street and a kampung games corner. The paid top-ups are genuinely cheap for locals: SG Science Fest + ONE Ocean at $9 (U.P. $24), or + Omni-Theatre at $12 (U.P. $32), with Escape @ Science Centre at $13.50 and Laser Maze at $4. Two things to watch: the popular shows and both water games are booked onsite at booking stations, not online — and Annual Pass members still have to pre-book a $0 admission ticket through the Discount Store.

A&W Singapore is running buy-1-get-1-FREE on its signature Root Beer Float from Thursday 6 August to Sunday 9 August 2026 — four days that deliberately bookend National Root Beer Float Day (6 Aug) and Singapore's 61st National Day (9 Aug). It's the full-size float, not a mini cup: A&W Root Beer made fresh in-restaurant, topped with a scoop of vanilla ice cream, in the branded frosted mug. The deal runs at ALL 10 Singapore outlets — Admiralty Place, Anchorvale Village, Canberra Plaza, Jewel Changi Airport, Jurong Point, Mandai Wildlife West, Northshore Plaza II, Tampines Junction, The Woodleigh Mall and VivoCity — and covers dine-in and takeaway, but NOT delivery. One thing to know before you plan: A&W's official menu doesn't publish prices online, so check the board in-store to see what your half-price-per-head actually works out to.

Fei Siong Group — the operator behind 85 Redhill, Encik Tan, Malaysia Boleh!, SG Hawker, Let's Eat! and EAT. — has put six SG61 deals on the table from today, 6 August, through 12 August 2026. The headline is a set of $6.10 hawker plates: fishball minced meat noodle with lime juice at 85 Redhill (u.p. $6.50), chilli ban mian with iced lemon tea at Let's Eat! (u.p. $8.10), and one rojak plus one roll of popiah at Malaysia Boleh! and SG Hawker (u.p. $6.90). Here's the part the deal-listing sites have wrong: only 85 Redhill and Malaysia Boleh! run theirs at all outlets. Let's Eat!'s $6.10 ban mian is Lentor Modern #01-17 only, SG Hawker's rojak-popiah is i12 Katong #B1-06/08 only, EAT.'s 10% off laksa and lor mee is exclusive to GrabFood, and Encik Tan's $1 Coca-Cola Less Sugar runs on a completely different clock — 7 to 10 August, 2pm to 5pm, one per customer, and not at the three airport terminals. We've read all six of Fei Siong's own posters so you don't waste a trip.

Hello Kitty fans, this one's hard to resist: a new Sanrio × Merlion SimplyGo EZ-Link card — Hello Kitty under a little red polka-dot umbrella beside the Merlion — is out at EZ-Link vending machines in malls for $10 each. It's the latest design in the ongoing 'Hello Singapore' Sanrio × Singapore Icons line (which already includes bus stop, kaya toast, HDB and dragon playground designs). One thing to know before you tap: the card comes with NO stored value, so you top up before your first ride — but it's a fully usable commuter card, not just a shelf collectible. There's also a free 'Hello Singapore' Sanrio pop-up at Marina Square (Level 2, Marina Foyer) now till 16 August 2026, with Mr. Merlion plushies, tees, blind boxes and a Kuji lucky draw.

IKEA Singapore's Swedish Restaurant has put a National Day menu on its own IKEA Family food page, and the prices only appear if you scan the (free) membership card at the till. The SG61 Combo — breaded pork cutlet with fries, a fried mantou with chilli crab sauce and a bowl of mushroom soup — is $14.90 for members against $17.80 regular, and the Chilli Crab Mantou Trio (3 pcs with chilli crab sauce) is $4.90 against $5.90. Both run 1–31 August while stocks last. The part with a real clock on it is the D24 durian trio, which stops on 10 August: cheese tart and mousse cup at $3.90 each (U.P. $4.50) and a cream cake at $4.90 (U.P. $5.50). Also live and cheaper than most people realise: the plant balls combo at $6.90 (U.P. $8.40, dine-in only, till 31 Aug), a $12.90 baked chicken chop on Tampines' halal line (U.P. $15.40, till 30 Sep), $1.50 lattes at Tampines, a $2.90 cake-and-coffee fika from 3–5pm daily, and $5.50 student meals on weekday afternoons. One thing to not bother queueing for: the Kräftskiva Crayfish Party buffet on 14 and 21 August is already sold out on IKEA's own page.

BEST Denki has put an automatic discount on top of an already-marked-down catalogue: spend every $88 on eligible items and $8 comes off at checkout, with no promo code to hunt for — it applies itself. That is a flat 9.1% on top of sale prices that already run to 70% off, and delivery is free. Two things to read carefully before you fill a cart. First, it stacks per $88 BLOCK, not pro-rata: $87 in the basket earns nothing, $176 earns $16, so nudging up to the next threshold is often free money. Second, the exclusion list is where most shoppers will trip — Apple products, mobile phones, smartwatches, pre-order items, limited offers, promotional items, Miele, Brandt, Epson, software and extended warranty are all out, which means the Galaxy Fold8 pre-orders on the same homepage do NOT count toward your $88. Phones and Apple get their own separate coupon ladder instead ($20/$30/$40 off with codes BDSAPL20, BDSAPL30 and BDSAPL40 on Apple). The standout on the floor right now is an SG61-priced EuropAce DC stand fan at $61 (U.P. $229) — 73% off, the deepest cut we could verify. It is online-exclusive, and BEST Denki publishes no end date: its own terms say only 'valid while redemption lasts'.

Japan's biggest conveyor-belt sushi chain has put a National Day line-up on the belt for exactly one week. From 5 to 11 August 2026, Sushiro Singapore drops four items to $6.10++ — Assorted Sashimi (U.P. $9.90++), Premium Malts (U.P. $10.50++), Kaku Highball (U.P. $9.00++) and Lemon Sour (U.P. $8.00++) — and the sashimi plate is the standout at $3.80 off. Around it sits a set of local-flavour plates: Soft Shell Chilli Crab, Chilli Crab Chawanmushi and Soft Shell Crab at $4.90++ each, Bluefin Tuna Akami & Fatty Swordfish at $3.90++, Fresh Shrimp Taste and Compare at $2.90++, and Big Cut Tuna & Big Cut Swordfish at $2.30++. Feeding two? The SG61 Anniversary 6+1 Platter is $15.90++ for seven pieces. It runs at Sushiro's outlets islandwide, while stocks last — but prices differ at the Mandai Wildlife Reserve (Digiro) outlet.

Lau Pa Sat has turned Singapore's favourite hawker dishes into a limited-edition Hawker Feast Plushie Collection, and you can redeem one free. Spend S$10 at Lau Pa Sat to earn one stamp (you can combine up to two receipts a day); collect three stamps and you redeem one blind-box hawker-food plushie, in four designs: Hokkien Mee, Chicken Rice, Satay and Nasi Lemak. It runs from now until 31 August 2026, while stocks last. Here's how to collect.

Don Don Donki has put a National Day price on three of its Japanese-meets-Singaporean ready-to-eat items: Bak Kut Teh Oden (10pcs, pork-based broth), Chicken Satay Don and Black Pepper Takoyaki (8pcs), all at $6.10 each from 1 to 15 August 2026, at all outlets while stocks last. The $6.10 is the SG61 gimmick — 61 cents times ten — and because it's a flat price stamped onto three items with three different usual prices, the actual discount ranges from decent to almost nothing. Donki's own poster prints the sums: the Bak Kut Teh Oden falls from $8.90, saving $2.80 (about 31% off); the Chicken Satay Don falls from $7.90, saving $1.80 (about 23%); and the Black Pepper Takoyaki falls from just $6.90, saving $0.80 — roughly 12%, which is under a dollar for a snack you'd have paid nearly the same for last week. If you're making one trip, the oden is the buy. Here's what's in each, the fine print, and the outlets and timing that decide whether you'll actually find them on the counter.

Mayer is running a National Day atrium sale at Tengah Plantation Plaza from 3 to 9 August 2026, 11am-9.30pm daily (127 Plantation Cres, #02-03), and its own campaign artwork headlines three NDP Special Deals at $89 each: Bundle A pairs a Mayer Induction Cooker (MMIC2045) with a Mistral 6-inch rechargeable foldable USB fan (MRF700); Bundle B pairs the same cooker with a Mistral 31-inch Tower Fan (MFD3103D); Deal C is a Mistral 14-inch DC Stand Fan with Wi-Fi and remote (MSF1455DRW, U.P. $229 - a 61% cut). The useful detail is that Mayer mirrors the sale online at mayer.sg, where the same SG61 items are priced individually - the induction cooker and the 31-inch DC tower fan are $61 each (U.P. $99), the AirZee Plus fan is $59.90 - so Bundles A and B are the only ones that actually beat the online price, while Deal C is matched online at $89. The deepest cuts sit in the online list rather than on the poster: a 5.5L air fryer at $59 (U.P. $299), a 5L digital air fryer at $89 (U.P. $349) and a handheld vacuum at $89 (U.P. $299). Sale ends Sunday 9 August.

Zenyum has put a National Day banner across its own Singapore store and, unusually for an SG61 campaign, the headline number is real: the National Day Bundle is $90.90 against a stated usual price of $233.30, which is exactly 61% off. Inside are five products — the 45,000 VPM ZenyumSonic Electric Toothbrush 2.0, a Gentle Clean brush-head 4-pack, ZenyumFresh Floss, ZenyumBright Invisible Whitening Strips and a Relief + Guard sensitivity toothpaste — and we added up their individual U.P.s on Zenyum's own product pages: $233.20, so the claim checks out. The honest number is the other one, though. Zenyum discounts almost its entire catalogue year-round, and at the everyday prices those same five items are showing today, the set costs $181.50 — which makes the bundle a 50% cut, not 61%. Still the deepest price on the site. Two 'favourites' also drop 40%: the Zenyum Waterflosser Go at $65.90 (U.P. $109.90) and the new ZenyumBright Instant Whitening Strips 28s at $41.90 (U.P. $69.90). One trap to avoid: the site's own Waterflosser Go + Jet Tips Refill 2-Pack listing is still $115.90, while buying the flosser and the tips separately during the sale comes to $82.80 — the same two boxes, $33.10 cheaper. Sale runs 3 to 9 August 2026 only, online, free shipping above $40.

Korea's original K-burger chain opens its second Singapore outlet at Jurong Point on 5 August, and the opening artwork carries two genuinely cheap days: Ria's Shrimp Burger at $2 on 5 August and Ria's Bulgogi Burger at $2 on 6 August. Both run only inside three one-hour windows — 11am–12pm, 2pm–3pm and 5pm–6pm — and the fine print caps each window at 50 redemptions, so it is 150 burgers a day, not an all-day price. Against the $7.20 that Eatbook recorded for Ria's Shrimp Burger at the Jewel outlet, $2 is about 72% off. Running much longer and much easier to actually get: a free limited-edition blind bag with a minimum $12 spend on a single bill, one redemption per bill, nine collectible designs, from 5 to 25 August while stocks last. The opening also brings Lotteria's first Singapore-exclusive breakfast menu built on a Korean-style K-Omelette in brioche, from $4.50.

Jewel Changi Airport has put a 1-for-1 flash sale on Canopy Park's LOCAL individual attraction tickets for National Day — and the useful part is that the buying window and the visiting window are different. You must purchase between 7 and 10 August 2026, but the ticket is valid for a single-day visit any time from 7 to 31 August, so you can buy over the long weekend and go when Jewel isn't heaving. On the local rates Jewel publishes, that works out to $10.45 a head for the Bouncing Net (U.P. $20.90), $7.95 for the Mirror Maze (U.P. $15.90) and $5.95 for the Hedge Maze or Mastercard Canopy Bridge (U.P. $11.90) — and every one of those tickets already includes Canopy Park admission with the Discovery Slides, Foggy Bowls, Petal Garden and Topiary Walk. The exclusions are where people will trip: the $6 Canopy Park sole ticket is NOT included, Bundle Deals 1–4 are NOT included, Standard (non-local) tickets are NOT included, and the free ticket must be the same type — adult pairs with adult, child with child.

Haidilao Singapore has put local flavours on the hotpot menu for Singapore's 61st birthday — and separately dropped three of its regular dishes to S$6.10++ each. The SG61 National Day Local Flavours range, billed as 'A Taste of Singapore, Nanyang Style!', runs from 3 to 31 August 2026 and adds a Laksa Soup Base, a Yong Tau Foo Platter, Kangkong and a Red Bean Ice Kacang dessert. Alongside it, the SG61 National Day Special puts Snakehead Fish Slices, Pork Belly Rolls and Angus Beef Topblade at S$6.10++ a plate, available all day across the same dates. The catch is in Haidilao's own fine print: dine-in only, no takeaway, prices before GST and service charge, and it cannot be stacked with the Late-Night 20% discount, Crazy Friday, or any Haidilao voucher — including birthday, membership-upgrade, CapitaLand and VivoCity vouchers.

Sony is celebrating SG61 with a superhero encounter and exclusive deals at Sony Store 313@somerset. On 8 August, Spider-Man swings in for a 'Swing Into Action' meet-and-greet, with a free photo print, tied to Spider-Man: Brand New Day. Alongside it, Sony's National Day promotion runs 31 July to 23 August with storewide promo codes and scratch-and-reveal offers across BRAVIA TVs, Theatre audio and more. Here's what's on.

mc.2, Singapore's largest smart blinds gallery, is marking SG61 with a Sure-Win Lucky Dip. Spend a minimum of S$1,000 in a single transaction on curtains, blinds or Zip Blinds at its showroom this August and you get one guaranteed prize from the capsule box, applied immediately to your purchase: 61% off storewide (top prize), $61 off, 6% off, or a free smart-home upgrade (MAGNAZip+, Somfy TaHoma or a Somfy Ondeis Wired Rain Sensor). Here's how it works.

FairPrice Group is rolling out National Day deals across FairPrice, Finest, Xtra, Cheers and online for SG61. The highlights: a free SG61 Goodie Bag when you spend $61 in a single receipt (National Day, while stocks last), National Day buys from $61, up to 37% off premium seafood (8-10 Aug, at FairPrice Xtra Nex & VivoCity), plus Hello Singapore! Sanrio collectibles and a 24K gold-plated medallion & SimplyGo EZ-Link card set. Here's what's on and when.

Singapore's homegrown department store is running its National Day sale right through the long weekend: OG's 'Happy SG61 Birthday' promotion gives 20% off storewide on most brands' regular-priced items in-store at OG Albert and OG People's Park until 10 August 2026. Layered on top is the part worth planning around — a set of '61'-themed best buys where selected items are priced at exactly $61 or cut by 61%, and some of those are the steepest markdowns in the sale. The standout is a Nature's Nutrition Raw Creamy Honey UMF 11+ 500g bundle of 2 at $61 against a usual $236 — $175 off, or 74%. Kitchenware is where the $61 line bites hardest too: a La gourmet Greenpan Torino eggpan (U.P. $189), a La gourmet Aura 28cm stainless frypan (U.P. $189.90), a TEFAL So Chef 32cm wok with lid (U.P. $129) and a WMF PROFI 28cm frying pan (U.P. $99) all land at $61 each. Watches go the 61%-off route — a BLACK BY BLUE BRAVE Crescent Moon watch drops to $85.41 from $219. The 20% storewide portion is an in-store deal at the two OG outlets (both open daily 11am–8.30pm); the $61 buys are on the e-shop too, where delivery is free above $200.

KFC Singapore has put its own merchandise line on sale: the 'KFC Swags' collection went live on merch.kfc.com.sg on 1 August 2026 with five pieces — the KFC Drumstick Plushie at $23.90 (an oversized plush cushion printed like a Hot & Crispy drumstick), the KFC Bucket Bag at $15.90 (a compact crossbody in the bucket's red stripes with Colonel Sanders on the front), the KFC Utility Phone Lanyard at $14.90, the KFC Original Red Tumbler at $38.90, and the cream KFC Finger Lickin' Good Jacket at $65.90 in S/M and L/XL. All five together come to $159.50. The catch is already visible on the store: the Drumstick Plushie — the piece everyone wants — is marked SOLD OUT as of today. Here's the full price list, what's still in stock, how delivery works, and the returns fine print, all read off KFC's own store.

A Singapore-exclusive Merlion Monchhichi is out for SG61, on sale from 1 August 2026. Get it at Simply Toys / Simply Zakka across 7 outlets (limit 2 per customer, very limited daily stock), or via a Shell promotion (1 Aug - 30 Sep): a Mini Plush Keychain at $28.80 or a Plush Doll at $37.90, each with 80 litres of Shell V-Power on Shell GO+. Here's where to buy, the full outlet list and the fine print.

Starbucks x POP MART's MOLLY collection lands in Singapore on 3 August 2026 (from 10am), a summer mermaid-themed drop for MOLLY's 20th anniversary. Highlights: a Tumbler with Strap ($59.90), a Bearista Glass Cup ($59.90), a Foldable Umbrella ($45.90) and a Ceramic Mug with Saucer ($35.90), plus a Singapore-exclusive Strawberry & Cream Frappuccino in a Grande MOLLY cup. Limit 2 per item, per person; 9 outlets excluded. Here's the full line-up, prices and how to buy.

Singapore's best-known bakkwa brand has priced its 61st-birthday sale around the number 61 — and put the whole thing on its web store only. Bee Cheng Hiang's National Day Sale runs to 10 August 2026 at beechenghiang.com.sg, and the flagship is Minced Pork Bakkwa at $18.80 for 320g (U.P. $23.68, 20.6% off) or $56 for a full kilo (U.P. $74, save $18 — more than 24% off). The deepest cuts are on the snack shelf: Mala Crispy Pulled Pork Twist 200g falls from $28 to $10.92 and the new Mala Golden Crisps 260g from $17 to $6.63, both exactly 61% off. Two mix-and-match tiers do the heavy lifting for gifting — any 2 vacuum-packed 480g bakkwa at 36.1% off (Sliced Pork $47, Chilli Pork $49, Sliced Chicken $47, Sliced Beef $52) and any 2 canned floss at 36.1% off — while Bakkwa Layer 90g is $6.10 off at $16.70 and both durian cakes are 15% off. On top of that sit eight separate vouchers you must collect on the site before you check out, valid 31 July to 10 August: $6.10 off each of the 280g sliced pork, chicken, beef and chilli pork boxes (up to 3 each), pineapple tarts at $16.10 a tin, $6.10 off Prawn Roll King, and 16.1% off 1kg bakkwa. Spend $88 and a 100g Bakkwa Bites (worth $6.50) comes free; spend $108 and you add Seaweed Golden Crisps 260g, for $23.50 of freebies. Here's every price, what the mix-and-match maths actually works out to, and the two catches.

Unity — FairPrice Group's pharmacy chain — has put 20 health and beauty lines on straight buy-1-get-1-free for four days only, 30 July to 2 August 2026, and the poster is unusually broad: it is not a single hero SKU but a full sweep across supplements, oral care, shampoo, shower gel and moisturisers. The supplements headline the list — Blackmores Fish Oil Odourless 1000mg 400s at $100.50 a bottle (so 800 capsules for the price of 400, about 12.6 cents a capsule), Holistic Way Probiotic Acidophilus Complex 30 Billion 30s at $43.80, 21st Century Prebiotic + Probiotics 12½ Billion 30s at $19.90 and Centrum Silver 100s at $67.95 — while the cheapest entry point is Colgate Total 150g at $7.20 for two tubes. Also in: Swisse Liver Detox, GreenLife Magnesium Glycinate, Redoxon, Oral-B, Neutrogena Hydro Boost, Klorane, Growell, Regaine, Simple, QV Gentle Wash, Aveeno, Ceradan, BRAND'S Lutein and a Unity-exclusive Flying Wheel bird's nest set. The catch you have to plan around: the prices shown are what you pay for the FIRST unit — you take the second free — so the deal only works if you actually want two, and Unity's own fine print says availability of products and variants varies from store to store, while stocks last. Here's every price on the list, what each works out to per unit, and where the maths genuinely beats a normal shelf price.

Takagi Ramen has put its two Singapore-flavoured crab bowls on buy-1-get-1-free for Singapore's 61st birthday: order a Chilli Crab Ramen or a Salted Egg Crab Ramen at $16.50 nett and the second bowl comes free, so two people eat for $8.25 each. Both bowls are built on the chain's 12-hour tonkotsu base — one with a sweet-spicy chilli crab gravy, one with a creamy salted-egg sauce, each topped with a whole soft-shell crab and a soft-boiled egg. It runs at all 13 outlets islandwide, nine of which are open 24 hours, plus Takagi's own order.takagiramen.com and the delivery apps. The campaign started 17 July and Takagi's poster carries no closing date — the brand has only said it runs through the National Day season, with food media putting it at mid-August — so treat this as a while-it-lasts deal rather than one with a deadline you can plan around. Nett pricing means no GST or service charge on top: $16.50 is what you pay for both bowls.

Sheng Siong's National Day newspaper ad went up today and it is built around two numbers: $6.10 and $61. Nine separate items in the catalogue are priced at exactly $6.10 — a 24-can carton of Coca-Cola Less Sugar (U.P. $21.15, 71% off), three packs of Breeze Gold bathroom tissue, three Dettol hand washes, a 630–680ml Dove shampoo, six cans of Fancy Feast — and on top of that sits a purchase-with-purchase ladder where every $61 you spend unlocks one set of a rotating special, with CDC Supermarket Vouchers explicitly counting towards the $61. Only the first window's PWP items (31 Jul – 1 Aug) are printed; the other four windows are being released on Sheng Siong's Facebook page. The catalogue runs 31 July to 10 August 2026, the fresh-produce page only runs to 6 August, and everything is capped at 3 products per customer per transaction.

Penang Place at Suntec City has switched to an 'Aug Special' buffet menu from 31 July to 30 August 2026, and the headline is unlimited chilli crab: its Head Chef's Signature Chilli Crabs go free-flow, alongside the usual Penang spread. Weekday buffets are $42.89++ per adult ($34.31++ senior, $21.50++ child); Friday night, Saturday, Sunday and eve-of/on public holidays are $45.89++ ($36.71++ senior, $22.95++ child). Set that against the restaurant's own standing buffet prices — $36.90++ weekday, $39.90++ weekend — and the free-flow crab costs exactly $5.99++ more a head, or about $7.18 nett once 10% service and 9% GST land. Free-flow crab in Singapore normally means a $70–$120++ hotel buffet, so this is the cheapest way to eat crab until you stop this August. Mantou is on the same buffet line for the sauce.

The best ice cream price in Singapore right now isn't at a scoop shop — it's in the Cold Storage freezer aisle. Häagen-Dazs pints are going at any 3 for $25 at Cold Storage and CS Fresh from 30 July to 5 August 2026. The tubs are shelf-priced at $14.75 each, so three normally come to $44.25 — you're saving $19.25, about 44% off, and it works out to $8.33 a tub. Thirteen pint flavours carry the deal on Cold Storage's own online catalogue, and you can mix and match freely: Belgian Chocolate, Caramel Biscuit & Cream (the Lotus Biscoff one), Chocolate, Coffee, Cookies & Cream, Macadamia Nut, Mango & Raspberry, Matcha Green Tea, Pistachio & Cream, Rum & Raisin, Salted Caramel, Strawberry and Vanilla. No membership needed — this one isn't yuu-gated. For context, FairPrice is currently running the same pints at any 2 for $27.50, or $13.75 each, so Cold Storage is roughly $5.40 a tub cheaper this week. One catch worth knowing: Pistachio & Cream comes in a 420ml tub rather than 473ml at the same price, so it's the weakest value of the thirteen. Availability varies from store to store and it's while stocks last — six days left, and the National Day long weekend is right after it ends.

Giordano Singapore has stacked three National Day offers on its own store at once, and they run together: a FREE T-shirt with any purchase over $61 (you add it to your cart yourself, limit 1 per order, while stocks last); Buy 2 Get 40% Off across its National Day 2026 (SG61) range — 16 pieces in all, 7 men's, 4 women's and 5 junior's; and Buy 2 Get 30% Off across the NDP 2026 with Disney's Mickey Mouse collection, another 16 pieces built around the 'I LOVE SG' graphics. Both multi-buy discounts auto-apply at checkout, and delivery is free above $59. The prices to work from, all listed on Giordano's own store: NDP 2026 crew-neck printed tees at $39 (men, women and junior), NDP 2026 embroidery and jacquard polos at $63 (junior $59, men's zip polo $66), and the Disney Mickey 'I LOVE SG' graphic tees at $49. Two NDP tees at $39 come to $78, and 40% off drops that to $46.80 — $23.40 a tee. Which is exactly where the trap is: $46.80 is BELOW the $61 free-T-shirt threshold, so the two offers can cancel each other out if you don't watch the cart total. Giordano publishes no end date on any of it — 'while stocks last' is the only limit printed.

McDonald's Singapore has tied its Happy Meal to Marvel Studios' Spider-Man: Brand New Day, which opens in cinemas TODAY (30 July 2026) — and the campaign runs 9 July to 12 August 2026. Every Happy Meal comes with a choice: one of 10 collectible Spider-Man mini-backpack toys, or a Happy Meal Readers book ("Swing Into Action With Spider-Man"). The toys drop two at a time, a new pair every Thursday at 11am, and today is Week 4 — the Green & Purple Spider Backpack and the Red Spider-Man Backpack, running 30 July to 5 August. One pair is left after that: the Black Spider-Man Heart Backpack and Pink Spider-Man Backpack, 6–12 August. The catches are the usual collectible ones and McDonald's prints them itself: toys and books are while stocks last, can't be bought separately from a Happy Meal, are non-exchangeable, and in the event of high demand McDonald's will substitute an alternative "surprise" toy instead. Happy Meal prices also vary by restaurant. Here's the full week-by-week toy calendar and the fine print.

City Square Mall is running a month-long National Day festival from 24 July to 23 August 2026. The pick of it: bring your own reusable flask and redeem a selected drink (usually $2–$5.90) for just $1 via the CityNexus app at outlets like Dunkin', Fun Toast, Holla Juice & Acai and Lai Lai; enter the 'Lunch on CSM' social contest to win a $200 lunch; and feast at the Mao Shan Wang Durian Party with Ms Durian (60-minute all-you-can-eat sessions, 14–16 August). There are also community markets, live performances and a National Day food fair. Here's what's on and how to redeem.

Flexar, a home-grown Singapore point-to-point car-sharing platform, is marking Singapore's 61st birthday by giving the first 100,000 new users who sign up in August S$88 in Flexar CDC (Commute, Discover and Connect) Ride Vouchers — a campaign it values at S$8.8 million. To get it: download the Flexar app, register a new account, complete verification, and S$88 in ride credits lands in your account, to be used on eligible rides by 31 August 2026. It's first-come-first-served and subject to availability. Here's how it works and the fine print.

Sheng Siong has published its full 7th Month catalogue — 中元普度大拜拜 — and it runs 24 July to 10 September 2026, ending on the exact last day of the lunar seventh month. It is the one festive catalogue in Singapore that prints real prices rather than 'ask in store', so here is what is actually in it: eight value hampers on a clean ladder at $13.80, $19.80, $26.80, $29.80, $33.80, $39.80, $49.80 and $59.80, each bundling 10–15 pantry staples inside a reusable carrier (the top two tiers include a 4-wheel TSA-lock luggage case and a foldable 4-wheel trolley that the same catalogue sells alone at $39.90 and $29.90); itemised 拜7月 prayer sets at $98, $198, $298 and $398; nine joss-paper sets from $3.80 to $118; roast chicken at $21.90 each, roast or braised duck at $28.20, roast pork and char siew at $28.80/kg, a 4–5kg golden piglet at $228; and huat kueh from $1.30 for 220g up to $68 for 5.5kg. Spend $500 and you pick a free gift (Guinness or a 10kg bag of rice), rising to a Martell VSOP or an 11-litre air fryer at $3,000 — and a single $500 package order gets free delivery. The catch nobody prints: none of it stacks with Sheng Siong's standing 4% senior-citizen or CHAS card discounts, and roast meats need five days' notice.

The Singapore Flyer has put two National Day tickets on its own site that only Singaporeans and PRs can buy. The SG61 Buddy Deal is $61 for two Singapore Flyer tickets, against a usual price of $92 — about $30.50 a head instead of $46, so roughly a third off, and each ticket still includes the Time Capsule pre-boarding experience, one 30-minute rotation in a shared capsule and the FLYER360 AR app. Its companion, SG61 Sip and Soar, is $61 for one adult premium flight — either the Singapore Sling Experience or the Premium Champagne Experience (U.P. $79) — with priority boarding, a drink and a Janice Wong chocolate. The condition to plan around: EVERY ticket holder must show a Singapore Citizen or PR NRIC at admission, so this is not a deal you can bring a visiting relative on. The Flyer publishes no cut-off date on either ticket page; its National Day materials describe the SG61 offers as running through August 2026, so treat 31 August as the working deadline and confirm at checkout.

September resets the buffet board. National Day pricing is gone, two of August's headline deals ended with the month, and one of them came back as something weaker. We re-checked all seven 1-for-1 buffets on this page against each venue's own menu and terms on 1 September 2026, with the real menu price, what two diners actually pay each, the card you need and the exact end date. Cheapest is still Plate at Carlton City Hotel, whose Sunday Ah Ma Porridge buffet works out at roughly $28++ a head; Sun's Café's Peranakan spread is about $30++ and now has a confirmed run to 31 December 2026. Two need no credit card at all: Permata's halal buffet at Gedung Kuning, which restarted on 1 September with a new East Coast menu, and The Landmark at Village Hotel Bugis. The one clock worth watching is Holiday Inn Atrium's 'Nyonya Meets The World', which closes on 9 September.

Gain City's SG61 National Day Sale is live and it's the rare appliance promo with a flat, easy-to-check number attached: $61 off every $500 you spend, running from 27 July 2026, 8.30am to 10 August 2026, 11.59pm — the National Day long weekend and the Monday holiday in lieu included. On an exact $500 that's 12.2% off, and the terms are written as 'every $500', so a $2,000 basket should knock off $244. Two things decide whether it's actually worth it. First, it is ONLINE STORE ONLY — walk into a Gain City showroom and this particular discount doesn't exist — and standard delivery fees still apply per transaction. Second, the exclusion list is long and it hits exactly the brands people shop for: Daikin, Gree and Fujitsu aircon (plus every System 1, portable and casement unit), Miele and Fujioh across large and small appliances, and Apple, Samsung phones/tablets, Nintendo, PlayStation, MSI and Microsoft laptops on the IT side. Stack on the purchase-with-purchase — an Eikou 12" DC Stand Fan at $89 (U.P. $299) with $500 spent, Climate Voucher-redeemable — and a $100 spend also enters you into Gain City's DENZA D9 lucky draw (16 Mar – 16 Aug 2026, COE excluded). Verified against Gain City's own National Day Sale page and its published promotion T&Cs.

Wild Wild Wet is stacking three birthdays into one August: SG61, the water park's own 22nd anniversary, and mascot Flumi's birthday. The headline is genuinely free entry for anyone born in August — a peak-day Adult pass is $39, so that's real money — but read the cap before you plan around it: free admission is limited to the first 50 guests on Peak days and the first 100 on Off-Peak days, online purchase only, verified at the entrance. Everyone else gets cheaper tickets too: the campaign poster prices Off-Peak at $22 Adult / $16 Child and Peak at $35 Adult / $25 Child, against standard board rates of $29/$21 and $39/$29. Add a free balloon between 5–6pm on August weekends and 50% off all Wild Wild Wet T-shirts (U.P. $35). One catch worth knowing before you book a weekday: the park is closed on Tuesdays.

Kyoto matcha, half price if you bring a friend: TSUJIRI Singapore — the 165-year-old Uji tea house that opened in 1860 — is running a 1-for-1 Float promotion for Singapore's 61st birthday, from 26 July to 9 August 2026. Buy one float and the second is free, across two flavours: the Matcha Float and the Houjicha Float, each a cup of iced Japanese tea topped with TSUJIRI's own soft serve. It runs at seven outlets — Tsujiri Premium Tanjong Pagar, Tsujiri Premium Holland Village, Tsujiri Sengkang Grand Mall, Tsujiri Clementi Peaks, Tsujiri Tanjong Pagar, Tsujiri Pasir Ris Mall and Tsujiri The Central. The catch is in the poster's fine print: it's available for takeaway, while stocks last, and T&Cs apply. Here's the full mechanics, the outlet list and what to watch for, verified against TSUJIRI Singapore's own announcement.

TungLok Group has put its premium Deep-Sea Golden Croaker — the fish it brands as TungLok Fish 同乐鱼 — at 61% off for Singapore's 61st birthday, and unusually for a National Day gimmick this one is not a token side dish: it runs across seven of the group's restaurant brands and 12 outlets, from Tóng Lè Private Dining at OUE Tower down to TungLok Teahouse at Square 2, in a spread of styles (pan-fried, deep-fried, braised, and in porridge). The fish is wild-bred in deep-sea waters and fully traceable, which is the part that normally lands it on the premium half of a Chinese menu. Two things the artwork doesn't tell you: TungLok has not published the fish's usual price anywhere, so you can only judge the 61% at the table — and the offer explicitly cannot be stacked with TungLok Membership Privileges, which means TungLokFirst members have to choose between this and the group's other running perk (50% off one signature dish daily till 30 Sep). Dine-in only, while stocks last, and the bill still takes 10% service charge plus GST.

Shell Singapore is pricing its premium petrol as though it were the cheaper grade for two weekends: from 31 July, 7am to 2 August, 10pm, and again from 7 August, 7am to 9 August, 10pm, Shell V-Power is charged at the prevailing Shell FuelSave 98 gross pump price. On the boards we checked on 28 July 2026, Shell's 98 was $3.89/litre and its premium grade $4.11 — a gap of about 22 cents a litre, so a 50-litre fill saves roughly $11 gross, or close to $9 after a typical card discount. The important detail is in Shell's own terms: the promo drops the GROSS price, before discounts and rebates, so your UOB, Citi, SAFRA or HomeTeamNS percentages come off the lower number rather than replacing it. There's no minimum purchase, and every Shell station in Singapore is in it except Shell Woodlands Mandai, which doesn't retail V-Power at all. Two more things ride along with it: a Shell V-Power ice cream cart parked at four different stations each promo day, 12pm–9pm, giving a free scoop from up to 20 flavours with any V-Power purchase — and a lucky draw that turns every litre of V-Power into an entry to win signed Scuderia Ferrari caps, mini helmets and, in the September draw, passes to meet Lewis Hamilton and Charles Leclerc on 8 October.

UNIQLO's National Day campaign — 'Made For All. Made For Singapore.' — is running in two halves, and most of the coverage has only reported the first. Half one is a price drop that runs 24 July to 9 August — UNIQLO's campaign materials extend the limited pricing to National Day weekend, not the 30 July date first reported: adult AIRism and Mini T-shirts at $14.90 (U.P. $19.90), kids' AIRism crew necks at $9.90 (U.P. $14.90), the Ultra Stretch AIRism UV Protection Full-Zip Hoodie and UV sunglasses at $19.90 (U.P. $29.90), Denim Culottes and Sweat Pants at $39.90 (U.P. $49.90), and the Miracle Air Jacket at $59.90 (U.P. $89.90). Half two is the in-store Sure-Win Garapon, and this is the bit worth reading the fine print on: UNIQLO's own terms and conditions say you need to spend a minimum of $100 in a single receipt AND pay with a DBS or POSB card to get a spin — the campaign page's headline just says '$100 min. nett spend', so plenty of shoppers will turn up with the wrong card. Week one is done; two rounds remain, 31 July–2 August and 7–9 August, 11am to 10pm, at every Singapore store except Changi Airport Terminal 1 and the Marina Bay Sands pop-up. Every ball wins something — the top prize is a $100 UNIQLO gift card capped at one winner per store per day, and the rest run from Mandai and Singapore Oceanarium tickets down to a $2 Ya Kun voucher. Here is the full price list, the complete prize table for both remaining weekends, and the conditions that decide whether you actually get a spin.

Sentosa GrillFest is back at Siloso Beach for its ninth edition and it is the biggest one yet — 42 vendors across five zones, 18 of them new — but the part almost nobody reads is the promotions tab, and that is where the actual money is. There are four stacked offers running alongside the festival, all confirmed on Sentosa's own campaign and terms pages. First, Mastercard: spend $100 at GrillFest on a Mastercard credit or debit card and you get a $10 voucher back at the Emerald Pavilion information booth — and you may combine up to four same-day receipts to hit the $100, which is what makes it realistic for a group. Second, a separate Mastercard offer: spend $50 (up to two same-day receipts) and you get a complimentary Express Pass free with the purchase of a MegaZip ride, redeemable at the MegaZip beach counters. Third — and this is the one most people miss because it is free to unlock — Sentosa Islander members get 11 exclusive sampler sets priced below menu, from Pergh!Chicks' Chargrilled Jumbo Dog at $11 (U.P. $14) and DAMN's Miso Aged Pork Belly Skewer at $12 (U.P. $16) up to CRAFT'B's chicken-and-drink set at $24 (U.P. $27). Islander sign-up is free. Fourth, Grab is the official ride-hailing partner: the code SENTOSAGRILL takes $5 off a ride to or from Siloso Point and Beach Station between 5pm and 11pm on festival days, limited to the first 200 bookings a day. There is also a free mocktail if you post a food photo and tag Sentosa. The festival runs Fridays to Sundays and there are only nine days left: 31 July to 2 August, 7 to 9 August, and 14 to 16 August, 4pm to 10.30pm. Here is how every offer works, what stacks and what does not, and the fine print that decides whether you actually walk away with the vouchers.

We re-read every retailer's own price-plan page, EMA fact sheet and promo T&C PDF on 5 September 2026, and the biggest change is a retailer we could not price at all a week ago. Keppel Electric's residential rate card is live again: FIXED36 at 29.40¢/kWh joins PacificLight, Senoko and Tuas in a four-way tie for the cheapest long contract, and FIXED24 at 29.80¢ comes with a $125 rebate (NEW125) for the first 1,000 sign-ups. Every 31 August deadline we flagged has passed and the codes behind them are dead. Tuas replaced ONSGDAY26 with ONLINE, which pays $160 on PowerFIX 36 rather than $200, to 11 October and capped at the first 500. Geneco retired POWER200, POWER100 and POWER15 for GENECO200, GENECO100 and GENECO15, and is running a four-day SP-customer special, GENECO270 for $270, that closes on 6 September. Senoko's PRISM+ mini fridge is now FULLY REDEEMED, but a 2-piece Samsonite Oc2lite set worth $680 has taken its place on the 36-month plan. PacificLight has not moved a single rate or code since 20 August. SP's tariff holds at 34.78¢/kWh to 30 September.

Concert tickets almost never go 1-for-1 in Singapore — which is why this one is worth moving on fast. Live Nation Singapore has launched a National Day campaign it is calling 'Double The Lobang', and the offer is exactly what the artwork says: a 1-for-1 ticket deal, unlocked by entering the promo code SGLOBANG at checkout on ticketmaster.sg. It runs for five days only — from 27 July 2026, 10am to 31 July 2026, 11.59pm — and covers two shows: David Byrne's 'Who Is The Sky?' Tour at The Star Theatre on Friday 7 August, and The Click Five's 'For Lovers' Tour at Arena @ EXPO on Saturday 29 August. Both land in the SG61 National Day stretch, and both are the kind of show you would normally pay full freight for: Byrne is the Talking Heads frontman on what is billed as the final run of the tour, and The Click Five are back on a nostalgia run for anyone whose teenage playlist had 'Just The Girl' on it. The catches are real and worth reading before you get your hopes up: the deal is first-come, first-served while tickets last, it applies to selected ticket categories only — not every price tier and not, in all likelihood, the VIP packages — and the 1-for-1 price you see excludes the ticketing fee and booking charges, which at Ticketmaster Singapore run S$6 to S$10 per ticket depending on the ticket's value. Here is exactly how to redeem it, what each show is, and what to check before you hit pay.

A quiet, no-voucher grocery discount that runs for three months: Cold Storage is giving S$7 off a minimum S$80 spend every weekend from 25 July to 18 October 2026, as long as you pay with a DBS Visa Debit Card or a POSB Everyday Card. There is no code to key in, no coupon to clip and no app to open — you just hit the $80 basket and tap the right card at the till. It covers 13 weekends in total, including the SG61 National Day long weekend on 8–9 August. The two catches are worth knowing before you plan a trip: it is limited to 10 participating Cold Storage and CS Fresh stores — Bugis Junction, i12 Katong, Novena Square, One Holland Village, Paragon, Raffles City, Suntec City, Takashimaya, Tanglin Mall and United Square, all of them central-belt stores rather than heartland ones — and Cold Storage states that redemptions are limited, so the daily allocation at a given store can run out. At $80, the $7 works out to 8.75% off, which is a meaningful margin on a weekly grocery run at a premium supermarket. Here is the full mechanic, the store list, and how it stacks against the other DBS/POSB grocery deals running right now.

Singapore's biggest home-grown restaurant group is doing National Day by the numbers, and the headline is genuinely silly: Suki-Ya is putting A5 Kagoshima Wagyu on its shabu-shabu line at $1.88++ per 60g plate (usual $4.88++) from 1–14 August 2026 — but only 61 plates a day per outlet, first-come-first-served, capped at 2 plates per guest and only on top of the Premium Buffet. It's part of a group-wide SG61 push across Creative Eateries' 10 brands: Tajimaya's $61++ SG61 Prestige Miyazaki Set (till 15 Aug) plus a $61++ dinner buffet on 3–6 Aug (U.P. $69.90++); Siam Kitchen's $61++ National Day set for 3–4 people (worth $80+, Mon–Thu all August); and $6.10++ add-ons at Barossa Steak & Grill (buy 2 mains, add a premium side, drink or dessert for $6.10++, Mon–Wed 5–8pm) and Bangkok Jam (any rice or noodle dish + dessert AND drink for $6.10++, Mon–Thu all day). On top of that, members who spend $61++ across their first two visits with at least one Pepsi get $30 in cashback vouchers — and the top three spenders each win an iPhone 17. Here's every offer, the dates, and the fine print that decides whether it's worth the trip.

You don't need a boarding pass for this one. Changi Airport is running its SG61 National Day 2xGST promotion over three long weekends — 24–26 July, 31 July–2 August and 7–9 August 2026 — giving Changi Rewards members 9% + 9% off with a minimum nett spend of S$30 on a single receipt at participating outlets in the PUBLIC areas of Terminals 1, 2, 3 and 4. That's the usual Changi Rewards GST absorption plus a matching 9% on top: close to S$18 back on a S$100 buy, at names like Eu Yan Sang, Bee Cheng Hiang, GODIVA, Guardian, WH Smith, The Cocoa Trees, Tech House and Cosmetics & Perfumes By Shilla. Pay with Mastercard through Changi Pay and you can stack a S$5 e-voucher (S$60 spend) or S$12 e-voucher (S$100 spend) on top. Membership is free, and Jewel is NOT included — here are the exact dates, outlets and fine print.

Family arcade Timezone is running its 'Pause & Recharge to Go Beyond' SG61 National Day reload promotion — a Mr. Merlion & Friends collaboration — from now till 31 August 2026 at participating Singapore outlets. Top up your Powercard and you get bonus game credits plus limited National-Day collectibles: reload $39 and get $50 in credits; reload $68 and get $90 in credits PLUS a Local Delight Keyring Blind Box; or reload the best-value $88 and get $120 in credits PLUS a National Day Crossbody Pouch with Eco Bag Blind Box. That's up to $32 of extra play on the $88 tier, on top of the merch. The collectibles are while-stocks-last and the blind-box designs are randomly issued, so the freebies — not the credits — are what runs out first. If you've got kids on school holidays or a National Day long weekend to fill, this stretches an arcade budget further than the usual reload.

Premium chocolate soft serve, two for the price of one — but only this weekend and only in two short windows a day. GODIVA Singapore is running its annual 1-for-1 on the Chocolate Twist Soft Serve on Saturday 25 and Sunday 26 July 2026: buy one cone and get a second identical one free. The catch is the timing — it's redeemable only from 11am–1pm and again 5pm–7pm each day, on a first-come-first-served basis while stocks last, walk-in only. It applies to the Core Chocolate Twist Soft Serve WITHOUT Chocolate Shavings (the only flavour available during the promo), you can buy up to 3 sets per receipt, and it can't be stacked with other promotions or member/VIP discounts. Five GODIVA boutiques are taking part — Takashimaya B2 Food Department, Suntec City #02-307, Raffles City #B1-K1, Bugis Junction #01-60 and Jewel Changi Airport #02-207 (Changi Airport Terminal 3 and online are excluded). Turn up in one of the two windows to halve the price of a GODIVA soft serve fix.

Kopitiam is running a run of $5 Friday flash deals across its halal food halls — Bagus by Kopitiam and its sister Cantine courts — with a different northern mall in the spotlight each Friday from 17 July to 7 August 2026. Each week, five featured dishes from the food hall's stalls go for just $5 each, claimed as vouchers on the FairPrice Group app with a limited number of redemptions per week, while stocks last. The line-up rotates: 17 Jul was Bagus @ Northpoint City and 24 Jul was Cantine Corner @ Admiralty Place — but there are still two Fridays to catch, 31 July at Bagus @ Causeway Point and the finale on 7 August at Cantine @ Canberra Plaza. Bagus is billed as Kopitiam's first fully-halal 'elevated' food hall, so it's an easy, wallet-friendly halal lunch or dinner if you're up north. Grab the voucher in the app before you queue — redemptions are capped each week.

Electronics on the cheap this week: BEST Denki is running a Warehouse Stock Clearance Sale at the Leong Huat Building — up to 90% off TVs, laptops, smartphones, tablets, home appliances, audio and IT accessories — for five days only, 22–26 July 2026, 11am–8pm daily. It's held off-mall at 6 Harper Road, #02-08 (Singapore 369674), and it's the deep-discount kind of clearance: display sets, overstock and last-season models rather than a normal storewide promo. Reported doorbusters have included a Philips 43" FHD TV at $188, IT accessories from $2, and premium TVs like a Sony 65" BRAVIA marked down to the $2,899 range — but many are in limited quantities, with selected models capped at one set per customer and fresh one-day offers rolled out through the run. Nothing is restocked once it's gone, so the early birds get the doorbusters. Here's what to know before you go.

The blind-box craze has reached the tissue aisle: Kleenex Singapore has launched 'Everyday Softies', a set of four collectible plushie keychains shaped like its own products — a tissue box, a tissue roll, a soft little pouch and a cheeky brown one — and it is giving them away FREE. Spend at least S$25 on any Kleenex products in a single receipt between 20 July and 15 September 2026 and you can claim one Plushie Keychain Blind Box, valued at S$18, at the customer service or cashier counter. It is a genuine blind box: there are four designs, they are issued at random, you cannot pick, and duplicates are possible if you redeem more than once. Redemption is at selected FairPrice, Cold Storage, Giant, Sheng Siong and Prime Supermarket outlets only — and at selected FairPrice stores you also get a free pack of Kleenex Skin Care 2in1 Tissue Cloth 50s on top. Stocks are limited and the campaign can end early, so if the plushies are the point, go sooner rather than later.

Breakfast just got a collectible: KFC Singapore is giving away a FREE Milo Dabao Plush Eco Bag with every Breakfast Platter Buddy Meal, from 22 July to 8 September 2026 while stocks last. The plushie is shaped like a classic 'dabao' (takeaway) Milo cup — brown body, the green Milo logo patch, a little smiley face, tiny arms and legs and the signature red carry-strings — and it doubles as a mini reusable eco bag, so it's a keepsake and a bag in one. To claim it you buy any Breakfast Platter Buddy Meal (the sharing set with waffles and butter, crispy fried chicken, fluffy scrambled eggs, golden hash browns and a loaded breakfast wrap; listed around S$15.50, price may vary by outlet) during KFC breakfast hours. The catch: it's for dine-in and takeaway during breakfast service only — you must order before 11am — at participating KFC breakfast outlets islandwide, one plush per qualifying meal while stocks last, and once the plushies run out at a store they're gone. KFC Singapore is MUIS halal-certified. Here's the deal, the fine print and how to grab one before they sell out.

A rare half-price ride above the harbour: Singapore Cable Car (Mount Faber Leisure Group) is running a Local Exclusive 1-for-1 Cable Car SkyPass — $35 for TWO adult round-trip passes (U.P. $70), so effectively $17.50 a head. The SkyPass covers both cable car lines: the Mount Faber Line (Mount Faber ↔ HarbourFront ↔ Sentosa) and the Sentosa Line (three stations across Sentosa), so two of you get the full scenic loop over the harbour and RWS for the price of one. It runs 15 July to 31 August 2026, so it spans the SG61 National Day long weekend and the tail of the school holidays. The catch: it's for locals only — Singapore Citizens, PRs and Local Residents with valid passes — proof of residency is required, and you book it online in advance. If you only want the Sentosa hop, there's a separate locals deal too: a $2 Sentosa Line round trip on weekdays, sold at the ticketing counters. Here's exactly how each one works.

The old World Trade Centre is done. HarbourFront Centre will cease operations on 27 July 2026 — the date is confirmed on the mall's own website notice — after which the 1 Maritime Square site makes way for a 33-storey office-and-retail redevelopment with an elevated park, due in the first half of 2031. That leaves less than a week of trading, and the stores that are staying open to the end have marked everything down. Moley Apparels — the label's very first shop, open at HarbourFront since 2011 — is doing 30% off storewide plus buy-2-get-1-free, with tees at $15, till 26 July. Vivian & Sean (travel gear, bags, footwear) has up to 70% off with school bags from $15, till 26 July. Vacanza is clearing all accessories at 4 for $10 till 26 July. Refash is selling pre-loved pieces at $6 an item with buy-3-get-1-free till 27 July, and Design & Comfort is running buy-1-get-1-free on all regular-priced bags and shoes (higher-priced item charged) with no firm end date beyond the mall's last day. The Cocoa Trees has clearance tags as low as 2 for $9, while stocks last. Don Don Donki's own closing sale already finished on 19 July. Mall hours are 10am–10pm daily until the shutters come down — go early, because stock is not being replenished.

Sheng Siong has flipped over to a new CDC Voucher week, running 21 to 27 July 2026, and this round is one of the better ones: 12 featured products at cut prices, with the biggest markdowns on the cupboard-and-cleaning staples rather than the token loss leaders. Happy Family Premium Oyster Sauce 550g drops to $1.25 from $3.95 (68% off), Homeniks 6-in-1 Laundry Capsules 80s to $8.95 from $26.90 (66% off), and a 6-pack of F&N Sparkling Zero to $1.95 from $5.60 (65% off). Heritage Farm Classic Basmati Rice 5kg is $9.65 down from $18.50, Dynamo Laundry Detergent 2.5kg is $8.65 from $18.90, and Happy Family Canola Oil 3L is $8.95 from $13.90. Sheng Siong's own poster puts total savings at up to $70.18, an average 43% off. The mechanic is the part people get wrong: for every $20 worth of CDC Supermarket Vouchers you spend in a single transaction, you unlock one unit of each featured product at the special price — so it is the voucher spend, not your cash spend, that opens the prices, and it is one unit each, not unlimited. Ends Monday 27 July, while stocks last.

Domino's Pizza Singapore has flipped on its MEGA WEEK campaign, running 20–27 July 2026: one Regular pizza from $4.99, with Domino's own poster stating the price is available in all flavours (upgrade surcharges apply if you change the flavour tier, the crust or the toppings). The catch is printed right on the artwork in a red badge — PICKUP ONLY, and you must enter coupon code 785735 at checkout. There is no delivery version of this price and no dine-in version; you order in the Domino's app or on dominos.com.sg, choose Pickup, pick your store, then drive or walk over to collect. Domino's Hot Deals page also lists a second MEGA WEEK line, 1 Large Pizza from $9.99, in the same section. For scale: Domino's everyday '50% Off 1 Regular Pizza' deal starts at $12.95, so $4.99 is well under half of even the chain's own standing half-price rate. Six days left including today, ending Monday 27 July.

Payday lands with a caffeine bonus: Kenangan Coffee Singapore is running a Buy-1-Get-1-Free promo from Wednesday 22 to Friday 24 July 2026. Buy one Regular coffee drink through the Kenangan Coffee app and the second one is free — but it has to be the same flavour and the same Regular size, so this is a bring-a-friend or drink-two deal, not a mix-and-match one. It is app-exclusive: the offer does not exist at the counter or on delivery platforms, so if the app is not on your phone before you queue, you will pay full price. Bean-selection options and milk upgrades are excluded, and it does not stack with any other promotion, set menu, discount, voucher or privilege card. All 10 Singapore outlets are taking part, from Raffles City and Takashimaya to Jewel, VivoCity, Tampines Mall, Compass One, AMK Hub, IMM, Aperia and the 24-hour Changi T2 kiosk. Three days only — here is how it works and what to watch for.

Mandai Wildlife Reserve is running a locals-only bundle that quietly beats every single-park ticket price: the 2-Attractions Pass lets you pick Singapore Zoo or the newly expanded Rainforest Wild Adventure as your main park, add a second attraction, and pay one discounted price for a single day. Singapore Zoo + Bird Paradise is $69 for adults (U.P. $88) and $49 for students aged 13–21 and children aged 3–12 (U.P. $68) — that's $76 off for a family of two adults and two kids. Zoo + River Wonders is the same $69/$49; Zoo + Exploria drops to $59/$44 on regular days (U.P. $80/$56); Zoo + Curiosity Cove is $103 for one adult plus one child (U.P. $119); and Rainforest Wild Adventure + Singapore Zoo is $79/$55 (U.P. $94/$65). The catch is who and where: it's for Singapore local residents who hold a WildPass (free, one-time Singpass sign-up), it must be bought online at buy.mandai.com, and it's valid for a 1-day visit on the date you select at checkout. It runs 1 June – 31 August 2026, which covers the National Day long weekend — and prices already include 9% GST.

Klook, Trip.com, Pelago, Booking.com, Agoda and Traveloka all sell you the same hotel room and the same Universal Studios ticket, at prices that can differ by 20% once codes and bank cards are stacked. The September school holidays start on Saturday 5 September (Friday 4 September if you count Teachers' Day), so this is the last week most Singapore families have to lock in flights, hotels and attraction tickets. Trip.com's flight code TRIPFLIGHT26SG closes on 31 August 2026 and no September replacement has been published. We pulled every promo code straight off each platform's own promotions page rather than coupon-aggregator sites, so every code and end date here is the brand's own published term. The short version: book attractions and theme-park tickets on Klook (a six-day weekly code calendar plus stackable bank codes), flights on Trip.com while the code lasts, anything you can attach to an SQ booking on Pelago (VISASG15 gives new users 15% off until 30 November 2026), and hotels on Booking.com if you have Genius status (10% to 20% off, free and permanent). Agoda and Traveloka publish no fixed public code. Their discounts live inside the app and on bank promos, so treat them as price-check tabs rather than code-hunting tabs.

Burger King Singapore is running a 1-for-1 on its new Smoky Maple Mayo burgers — the app lists the pair at about S$9.30 (price may vary by outlet), so two burgers for roughly the price of one. The headline pair is the Smoky Maple Spicy Chicken King (a big crunchy chicken patty) and the Smoky Maple Double Beef (two flame-grilled beef patties), both stacked with lettuce, caramelised onions, crispy turkey bacon and a Smoky Maple Sauce made with natural maple flavouring; SingPromos also lists a Smoky Maple Double CNC in the selection. It runs 16–27 July 2026 and there are three ways to claim it: order in the Burger King app, key it in at a self-service kiosk, or simply show the promo image at the counter — no app strictly required. The catch: it's for dine-in and takeaway in-store only (not BK Delivery or delivery apps), while stocks last, and Burger King Singapore isn't halal-certified. About a week left as of 21 July.

Sheng Siong's biggest sale of the first half is running right now: The Sheng Siong Mid-Year Mega Promotion 2026, a $2,500,000 giveaway, is live from 10 to 30 July 2026 across all outlets. The headline is the Purchase-with-Purchase rack — every $20 you spend unlocks the right to buy Heritage Farm Sunflower & Extra Virgin Olive Oil 2L at $10.50 a bottle (U.P. $19.90, 47% off) and the newly-landed Softess 100% Bamboo Pulp Bathroom Tissues (3-ply, 10 rolls x 220 sheets) at $5.50 a bundle (U.P. $8.90, 38% off), both capped at 3 per customer per transaction. Beyond the PWP, the flyer prices staples hard: Kangaroo Premium Calrose Rice 5kg at $11.50, Golden Circle Groundnut Oil 2L at $9.90, a 24-can carton of Coke Less Sugar at $13.35, Nestum 3-in-1 at $4.60 and Homesoy 1L at $2.40. Every receipt also enters you into the games on The Sheng Siong Show (Saturdays, 9pm, Channel 8). Note the Ferrero PWP and the fruit-and-veg sheet were 10–16 July only and have already lapsed — here's what's still live, and the fine print that trips people up.

Buffets are where 1-for-1 saves you the most: split the second cover and a $62++ spread drops to $31++ a head. This was our July 2026 round-up of 1-for-1 (and effectively half-price) buffet deals in Singapore, re-checked on 1 September 2026 against every venue's own channels. THREE ARE LIVE TODAY. Cafe Mosaic at Carlton Hotel does a 1-for-1 Hong Kong Kitchen lunch buffet at about $31++/pax on weekdays and $34++ on Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays, plus a 1-for-1 Hong Kong seafood dinner buffet at about $69++/pax Thursday to Saturday, on DBS/POSB, Citi, OCBC or UOB. Permata's 1-for-1 halal buffet at Gedung Kuning is $88++ for two at lunch and $108++ for two at dinner, so $44++ and $54++ a head, with no card needed and no end date published. Hari's at Holiday Inn Orchard runs a 1-for-1 Straits Indulgence high-tea buffet at $78++ for two, but only to 4 September. BACK ON 10 SEPTEMBER: the same hotel returns its 1-for-1 Crab & Lobster buffet as Crack, Dip and Indulge, S$168++ for two adults, Thursday to Sunday at the newly renovated Window on the Park, running to 22 November 2026. NO LONGER 1-FOR-1: Seasonal Tastes reopened at The Westin on 1 September with 50% off the second diner instead of a free cover, Crossroads is 20% off with code CR20OFF to 30 September, and TungLok has published no replacement. CLOSING: Carnivore is shutting at the end of September after 20 years, and has cut its farewell buffet to $50++ on weekdays and $60++ at weekends. Below: the effective price, which card you need, the hours and the fine print for each, plus where to find a 1-for-1 seafood buffet and how weekday lunch compares with dinner.

Fine dining at nearly half price: modern-Chinese restaurant QĪN, on Level 4 of The Clan Hotel in the CBD, is running a Citi Cardmember exclusive — a 1-for-1 eight-course dinner set, each with a glass of prosecco, at a usual price of $150++ per person. Redeem it as an eVoucher through the Citi Mobile App (My Vouchers → Discover New Vouchers), on a first-come-first-served basis while vouchers last, till 31 July 2026. Two diners share the eight-course menu of QĪN signatures — think Hokkaido snow pork belly 'har cheong', Shanghainese hairy crab roe 'dou hua' and Zuwaigani snow crab claw 'lao mian' — so the pair effectively pays for one. Citi cardholders also get $6 off every $60 spent (capped at $60) here till 30 December 2026. Here's exactly how the deal works, the fine print, and how to claim it.

A quiet, comforting afternoon deal in town: Milkfish — the all-natural, no-MSG seafood-soup specialist — has reopened at Raffles City with a refreshed menu, and to mark it, its signature Grilled Milkfish & Broth Set is 50% off from 15–31 July 2026. The set pairs a Grilled Milkfish Belly with a slow-brewed Wild Mushroom & Kombu Broth (U.P. $22.60++), so at half price it's about $11.30++ a set. The catch: it's weekday afternoons only — Monday to Friday, 2pm to 5pm — and you need a minimum order of two sets to unlock the deal, so it's really a two-person (or two-bowl) offer. The grilled milkfish belly now comes in a new Miso flavour alongside the signature Nyonya and Soy Glaze. Prices are before GST and service charge, and it's while the promo runs.

Homegrown café-bakery Han's is running an afternoon treat: buy any sandwich between 2pm and 5pm and your hot drink is FREE, every day, at all outlets, till 26 July 2026. It covers Han's best-selling sandwiches — the Clubhouse, Fried Egg & Bacon, Fried Egg & Ham, Ham & Cheese and Tuna Mayo & Cheese — for dine-in or takeaway, so an afternoon kopi (or teh) comes on the house when you order a sandwich in the tea-time window. No app, no code, no minimum spend beyond the sandwich itself. Here's exactly which sandwiches qualify, the hours, the outlets and the fine print — plus Han's other current value deal, the all-day $13 three-course set.

Haidilao's tea spin-off HECHÁ is running a Buy-1-Get-1-Free launch series through July: a different new drink turns 1-for-1 every Monday & Tuesday, at all five outlets, all day. Up next is the Light Matcha Latte (launching 17 Jul) on 1-for-1 from 20–21 July 2026, followed by the MSW (Musang King) Durian Coconut Slush (launching 24 Jul) on 1-for-1 from 27–28 July. The earlier Da Hong Pao Bubble Milk Tea window (13–14 Jul) has already passed. The deal is valid for dine-in and self pick-up during each store's operating hours, while stocks last, at Plaza Singapura, IMM, 313@somerset, Wisma Atria and Marina Square. Here's the full drink-by-drink schedule, the outlets, and the fine print.

Free food run: 7-Eleven Singapore is handing out FREE ready-to-eat items every Wednesday this July as part of its new 'Find the Good Stuff' campaign — about 10,000 items across selected stores islandwide, no membership, no app and no minimum spend for the freebie. The first two Wednesdays (8 Jul sandwiches, 15 Jul packed meals) are done, but two are still to come: FREE Onigiri on Wed 22 July and FREE 7-Eleven Wraps on Wed 29 July, given out from the morning while stocks last (selected SKUs, first-come-first-served — get there early). On top of that, all month you can take $2 off ALL ready-to-eat items via the yuu app, for both existing and new users. Here's the schedule, the fine print and how to grab one.

A late-night fried-chicken saver that runs all the way into August: McDonald's Singapore is taking 20% off a 6-piece Chicken McCrispy® through the McDonald's app, every day from 6pm to 3.45am, till 2 August 2026. With a usual price from $19.65, the voucher brings a 6pc box down to about $15.70 — roughly $3.95 off — though prices vary slightly by outlet. You pick the flavour combo when you redeem: Signature (non-spicy), Spicy, or Mix (both in one box). It's an app-only deal — open the McDonald's Singapore app, log in, tap into Deals, select the '20% off Chicken McCrispy® (6pc)' voucher, choose your flavour and check out for takeaway, dine-in or McDelivery. The fine print: no menu customisations, limit one redemption per customer, not valid with other promotions or discounts, and once redeemed the voucher can't be used again; while stocks last. Verified via SingPromos' coverage of the official McDonald's app deal (Jul 2026).

Late-night chicken cravings just got cheaper: Popeyes Singapore is running a 'Midnight Crunch' 1-for-1 on its 2pc Love That Chicken Meal — $9.90 for two meals (U.P. $19.80), so you're paying about $4.95 a head for 4pc of chicken, two regular sides and two regular drinks. It's a weekday-midnight special, on for five nights only from 13 to 17 July 2026 (Mon–Fri), and only during the supper window of 10pm to 2am. Just flash the deal at the counter to redeem — no app, voucher or code needed. It runs at 13 outlets islandwide (Kinex, East Village, ESR BizPark, Jurong Point, The Rail Mall, West Coast Plaza, Crown Centre, Pan Pacific Orchard, Woodlands MRT, Northpoint City, Heartland Mall Kovan, The Seletar Mall and AMK Hub), for dine-in and takeaway only, excluding Changi Airport T1. You don't get to choose your chicken parts, it can't be stacked with other promos, and it's while stocks last — so with only three nights left as of 15 Jul, go early in the window.

One of Singapore's most nostalgic childhood outings is winding down: Snow City — the country's first indoor snow centre, run by Science Centre Singapore in Jurong East — will close for good on 30 September 2026 after 26 years. To send it off, it's running a farewell campaign, 'One Last Snowfall', with a discounted Snow Play package: $19 per adult and $16 per child (ages 3–12), about 30% off usual admission. The package includes a full hour of snow play plus one ride on the ice bumper cars, and winter jackets and boots are provided with admission. There's brand-new winterwear on sale at $10 each (while stocks last) and discounted plushie souvenirs for keepsakes. The deal runs right through the farewell period until the doors shut on 30 September — so this really is the last window to go tobogganing in the snow in the tropics.

Bubble tea for two at the price of one: home-grown chain LiHO TEA is running a Buy-1-Get-1-FREE on almost all drinks for just three days — 14–16 July 2026 — to launch its new 'New Menu New Mood' line-up. Buy two drinks and the cheaper one is free, so a pair of cups works out to roughly half price each. It covers almost the entire menu (only 'Member's Drinks' are excluded), redeemable in-store or via the LiHO TEA app (add two drinks, apply the B1F1 e-voucher), at LiHO outlets islandwide. A large-size upgrade is +$1 and extra toppings are still charged, and it can't be stacked with other promos. The launch also debuts three new drinks — No. 33 Osmanthus Tea Latte, No. 42 Cloud Jasmine Green Tea and No. 50 Pink Guava Jasmine Milk Smoothie. With the deal ending Thursday 16 July, this is a two-day window.

Buy one, get one free is still the fastest way to halve a Singapore dining bill. This was our July 2026 round-up of 8 verified 1-for-1 dining deals, and we re-checked every one again on 3 September 2026. Two are live as you read this. Cafe Mosaic at Carlton Hotel still runs 1-for-1 on its Hong Kong dim sum lunch buffet, but the price is no longer $62++ on weekdays: Carlton flattened it to $68++ daily on 31 August, so two people now pay about $34++ each, and its Thursday-to-Saturday seafood dinner buffet is 1-for-1 too at $138++. The Straits Indulgence high tea at Holiday Inn Orchard was quietly extended past 31 August and now ends on 4 September, and the same hotel opens a brand-new 1-for-1 Crab & Lobster Buffet Dinner on 10 September at S$168++ for two. Three things ended while this page sat still: The Westin's 1-for-1 is over, with the refurbished Seasonal Tastes reopening on 1 September at 50% off the second diner instead; Kiwami's SG61 karaage offer lapsed on 31 August, leaving its $28.80++ all-you-can-eat ramen buffet as the value play; and TungLok's Golden Croaker discount closed on 30 August. For this month's full list, see our August 1-for-1 buffet guide.

One of Singapore's most wallet-friendly weekday treats just got a long lease of life: Délifrance's $6 Pie Tuesdays are back, and now run every Tuesday until 29 December 2026 at all outlets islandwide. Every Tuesday, the French bakery-café's freshly baked signature savoury pies — think Tuna Mushroom, Chicken Curry, Chicken Bolognese and Chicken Mushroom — are a flat $6 each (a discount off the usual à la carte price), with no membership, app or promo code needed. Just walk into any outlet on a Tuesday and order at the counter, up to 4 promo pies per person, while stocks last. Flavours rotate and vary by outlet, and the popular ones sell out by tea time — so go earlier in the day. Today (14 Jul) is itself a Tuesday, and with the deal locked in for the rest of 2026, it's an easy, reliable lunch or teatime lobang to keep in your back pocket.

Planning a staycation this year? Marriott Bonvoy is running its 'Never-Ending Staycation' package across 19 of its Singapore hotels — and it bundles in a lot for one booking. Book a minimum 2-night stay with promo code HOL and every stay comes with daily buffet breakfast for two, one 3-course-or-more dinner for two (with drinks), early check-in from 10am and late check-out until 3pm (both subject to availability), plus up to two children under 12 dining free when they're with a paying adult. It's valid for stays from now right through to 23 December 2026, so it covers the September and year-end school holidays. Participating properties span the luxury end (The St. Regis Singapore, JW Marriott Singapore South Beach, The Singapore EDITION, W Singapore – Sentosa Cove) to city and family-friendly options (Sheraton Towers, The Westin Singapore, Courtyard & Aloft Singapore Novena). Room rates aren't fixed — they vary by hotel and date — so the package is the value layer on top. Here's exactly what's included, the fine print, and how to book.

One of Singapore's best-known Chinese seafood names is doing a proper 1-for-1: at TungLok Seafood inside Park Regis by Prince Singapore (23 Merchant Road, near Clarke Quay), the Deluxe à la carte seafood buffet — usual price $59.80++ per adult — is buy-1-get-1-free for July, so two diners split it for the price of one, roughly $30++ a head before the 10% service charge and 9% GST. Unlike a self-serve steam-tray line, it's an order-to-your-table à la carte buffet: everything's cooked fresh as you tick it off the menu. The Deluxe tier piles on the good stuff — deep-fried salt-and-pepper oysters, braised whole abalone with mushrooms and seasonal vegetables — on top of Japanese sashimi and sushi, Chinese à la carte dishes, rice and noodles, and desserts, with as many rounds as you can finish. The catch: it's a Citi Cardmember eVoucher, claimed on the Citi Mobile App on a first-come-first-served basis, valid 1–31 July 2026 while stocks last. Here's the full menu tier, the fine print, and how to claim it.

Swensen's is doing National Day its way: from 9 July to 9 September 2026, the family diner rolls out an SG61 menu of six local-inspired dishes, each priced with a cheeky National Day '.61' twist. The headliners are the Singapore Laksa Pizza (an 11-inch pie with shrimp, fish cake, tau pok, egg and laksa leaves on mozzarella) and the Jumbo Blue Prawn Hokkien Mee (wok-fried yellow noodles and bee hoon in a rich seafood broth, loaded with a jumbo blue prawn and char-grilled chicken) — both at $18.61. Rounding out the line-up: the Swensen's Shiok Fish Burger ($16.61), Chili Crab Soup with Mantou ($11.61), a Muah Chee Waffle with Ice Cream ($10.61) and a MILO Bandung ($5). For groups, there's a dine-in-only $61 SG61 Family Set that feeds three. It's available at Swensen's and Earle Swensen's outlets islandwide, for dine-in or takeaway, for a limited time only. Here's the full menu, prices and the fine print.

Booking opens today: Singapore Airlines has launched a Global Fare Sale with promotional return fares from just S$208 to 63 destinations worldwide, bookable 14 July–9 August 2026 for travel through 31 May 2027. Economy return fares start at Penang S$208, KL S$218, Ho Chi Minh City S$258 and Bali S$308, scaling up through North Asia (Hong Kong S$358, Seoul S$608), Australia (Melbourne/Sydney S$798), Europe (Frankfurt S$1,008) and the US (San Francisco S$1,198) — and Premium Economy and Business fares are on selected routes too. Two card perks stack on top: DBS/POSB cardholders get S$50 off per adult on return flights with code DBS50OFF (14–20 Jul only), and Mastercard gives the first 200 qualifying bookings S$50 in KrisPay miles. Here's the full fare list by region, the booking mechanics and the fine print, verified against SIA's promotion.

Singapore's largest beauty warehouse sale is back for its final three days: Beauty Fiesta HUAT 2026 returns to Singapore Expo Hall 5B on 17–19 July 2026 (10am–10pm daily) with up to 90% off across 200+ international beauty, health and wellness brands — skincare, makeup, fragrance, haircare, personal care and supplements, plus event-only bundles, daily lucky draws and limited goodie bags. It's a ticketed sale: general admission is S$8 (early bird) or S$10 at the door. After the first leg (9–12 Jul), the sale paused and reopens for one last weekend — so this is your last window in 2026. Here's the full run-down: dates, hours, ticket prices, what's on sale and the fine print, all verified against the official Beauty Fiesta site.

A rare flat discount on a night out at the concert hall: the Singapore Chinese Orchestra (SCO) turns 30 this year and is giving 30% off ALL ticketed SCO30 anniversary productions — no membership, no promo code — with the discount running from the first day of public sale (16 Jun) through the end of August 2026. Because it's tied to the booking window (not the concert date), you can lock in 30% off by 31 Aug even for shows later in the year: the SCO30 Opening Gala (18 Jul), Resonating 30 with Tsung Yeh (15 Aug), Qu Chunquan (29 Aug), A Voyage of Voices: Moonbound (19 Sep), and on to the SCO30 Closing Gala (21 Nov). Tickets are on BookMyShow, concerts are at the SCO Concert Hall (7 Shenton Way). It's a fitting National Day-month treat — Singapore's own national Chinese orchestra, at close to a third off. Here's the full line-up, how the discount works, and the fine print.

A whole Regular Pizza for $4.90 — that's ~79% off the usual $23.85, but only at ONE Pizza Hut outlet, for ONE week: Braddell Heights Community Club (50 Serangoon Ave 2, near Serangoon MRT Exit F), 13–19 July 2026, all day. The $4.90 price applies to the Favourite range via walk-in takeaway or self-collection (Hut Rewards App/Web) — classic & specialty pizzas cost more. Prefer delivery? There's a separate Braddell Heights CC Exclusive Bundle on GrabFood & foodpanda only: 1 Regular Pizza (Favourite) + Crispy Chicken Fries + 2 canned drinks for $15.90. Pizza Hut — Singapore's largest pizza chain, marking 45 years since its first Jalan Jelita outlet opened in 1981 — shared this with us directly via an official media alert. Here's the full mechanics and fine print.

A tongue-tingling bowl of mala ramen, effectively half price for two: Kiwami Ramen & Gyoza Bar is running a 1-for-1 on its Mala Ramen (U.P. $16.90) — buy one bowl, get the second free — so two of you split two bowls for the price of one, about $8.45 a head before service/GST. It's a Citi Cardmember eVoucher (claimed via the Citi Mobile App), valid 1–31 July 2026 while stocks last, at Kiwami outlets islandwide (Chinatown Point, Suntec City, VivoCity, Guoco Tower, JEM and more) — but it EXCLUDES the Jewel Changi Airport outlet. Kiwami's mala ramen layers a numbing-spicy mala broth over the chain's springy ramen. There's also a separate brand-run SG61 promo — a free Chicken Karaage with any $61 spend, 13 Jul–31 Aug. Here's the full mechanics, the fine print and how to redeem.

Hong Kong-style individual hotpot, effectively half price for two: Paradise Hotpot is running a 1-for-1 on its Beef & Seafood Premium Set (U.P. $25.90–$29.90) — buy one set, get the second free — so two of you split two premium sets for the price of one. It's a Citi Cardmember eVoucher (claimed via the Citi Mobile App), valid weekday daytime only, from morning till 4.30pm, and it excludes the eve of and actual public holidays. The set pairs marbled beef and seafood with your choice of individual pot and broth at Paradise Hotpot outlets (Compass One, VivoCity, Westgate and more). It runs 1–31 July 2026, while stocks last — and any spend at participating Paradise Group restaurants also nets you a $10 return voucher (valid till 31 Dec 2026). Here's the full mechanics, the fine print and how to redeem.

Thai comfort food, all-you-can-eat, for under $24 nett: to mark its 19th anniversary, Bangkok Jam is running an à la carte Thai buffet at its Great World outlet for $19.90++ per adult (about $23.85 nett after service charge + GST) — 19 signature dishes ordered fresh to your table, not a self-serve steam-tray line. Think Thai/pineapple fried rice, green curry chicken, stir-fried basil minced pork, grilled chicken skewers, clear tom yum seafood soup and mango sticky rice, with as many rounds as you can finish. It runs weekday dinners only (Mon–Fri, 5–8pm — not Saturdays, Sundays or public holidays), needs a minimum of two diners per table, and kids aged 5–10 eat for $15.90++. A +$7++ premium add-on unlocks Steamed Seabass with Chilli & Lime, Black Pepper Beef and Moo Ping. The catch: it's one outlet (Great World, #02-127), the dinner window is tight at 5–8pm, and Bangkok Jam hasn't published an official end date — it's billed as a limited-time anniversary buffet, so treat it as while-it-lasts and confirm before you go.

Midweek fried-chicken value: Texas Chicken's new WednesYAY deal bundles 3 pieces of its fresh, never-frozen chicken WITH 4pc drumlets for a flat $9.90 — against a usual price of $20.70, that's 52% off, more than half price. It runs every Wednesday (from 1 July 2026, no announced end date) at participating Texas Chicken outlets islandwide, and there's no app, voucher or membership to fuss with — just order it in-store on the day, while stocks last. Texas Chicken is MUIS halal-certified, so it's one of the cheaper halal fried-chicken meals going this month. And if Wednesday doesn't work, the chain's Half Price Monday (4pc chicken for $9.90) and an app-only Monday 1-for-1 combo cover the start of the week too.

Chilli crab, cheaper than you'll ever see it at JUMBO: the original East Coast Seafood Centre flagship is running a $39 Mud Crab farewell special — an average-500g mud crab, cooked in your choice of 5 signature styles (including the Award-Winning Chilli), for a flat $39 before service charge and GST (so roughly $47 on the final bill). It's a 'Thank You For The 39 Years Of Trust' send-off as the East Coast flagship — where JUMBO started in 1987 — prepares to close on 30 September 2026, when its lease ends under NParks' East Coast Park rejuvenation. Confirmed on JUMBO Seafood's own promotions page and official '$39 Mud Crab' campaign poster: valid at the JUMBO Seafood East Coast Seafood Centre outlet only, daily, till 31 July 2026, while stocks last, dine-in only, and not stackable with other discounts, promotions or vouchers. No app or voucher is needed for this one — just order the mud crab at East Coast. The 5 styles: Award-Winning Chilli, Signature Black Pepper, Golden Salted Egg, Steamed with Chinese Wine & Egg White, and Kum Hiong stir-fry.

Haidilao's in-house tea brand HECHÁ is rolling out three new drinks this July, each with its own 2-day buy-1-get-1-free window — so there's a fresh 1-for-1 to catch roughly every week. First up: the Da Hong Pao Bubble Milk Tea (premium Da Hong Pao oolong, fresh milk and chewy pearls), which launched 10 July and goes 1-for-1 on 13–14 July. Next is the Light Matcha Latte (launches 17 July, 1-for-1 on 20–21 July), then the MSW Durian Coconut Slush — Musang King durian blended with coconut slush (launches 24 July, 1-for-1 on 27–28 July). The deal runs all day during outlet hours at the five HECHÁ counters inside Haidilao — Plaza Singapura, IMM, 313@somerset, Wisma Atria and Marina Square — for dine-in and self pick-up, no app or membership needed, while stocks last. Here's the full drink-by-drink calendar and the fine print.

Baskin-Robbins isn't just for scoops any more: the ice-cream chain has rolled out a new café-style Coffee Series at selected outlets, and the entry price undercuts most coffee shops. A Hot Americano is just $3.50, Hot Café Latte and Iced Americano are $4.00 — then it gets fun with the ice-cream floats: the BRaffogato (espresso poured over ice cream) at $6.90, a Latte Float at $7.00 and a Caramel Coffee Float at $7.50. It's the obvious move if you want a proper coffee to go with (or on top of) your 31 flavours. Available at selected Baskin-Robbins outlets — NEX, City Square Mall, Northpoint City, One Holland Village, Bedok Mall, Changi City Point, HarbourFront Centre and Punggol Oasis Terraces — from 29 June 2026, with no announced end date. Here's the full price list and the fine print.

Korean fried chicken on the cheap, all month: home-grown halal chain JINJJA Chicken is knocking $5 off its Signature Fried Chicken wings till 31 July 2026. A 12-piece box drops to $11.90 (U.P. $16.90) and an 18-piece to $16.90 (U.P. $21.90) — that's under $1 a wing on the bigger box. The deal runs ALL DAY (not just off-peak) across all JINJJA Chicken and JINJJA Kitchen outlets — Northpoint City, Bugis+, Westgate, Sengkang Grand Mall, Our Tampines Hub, Bukit Panjang Plaza and Jurong Point — and works for dine-in, takeaway and delivery. These are the sweet-spicy, soy-garlic glazed 'most addictive wings' the chain is known for, and it's MUIS halal-certified. While stocks last; started 6 July, ends Fri 31 July.

Two of Singapore's cheapest grocery staples just got cheaper — if you pay with the right card. From 18 July to 29 August 2026, DBS and POSB cardholders get S$3 off eggs and S$3 off rice every Saturday at Sheng Siong and Giant, for up to S$6 off a week. There's no minimum spend, it works with any DBS/POSB credit or debit card, and it runs across 129 outlets islandwide. The catch: it's on a 30-egg tray and a 5kg bag of jasmine rice (selected house-brand products only), one redemption per item per person per day, first-come-first-served with about 90,000 redemptions a week while stocks last — and it can't be stacked with CDC vouchers or other promos. Verified against DBS's official press release. Kicks off the bank's S$10 million cost-of-living support push.

Curry Times has brought back its much-requested Hainanese Curry Chicken Rice — and it comes with a free drink. From 2 to 31 July 2026, $9.90++ gets you a loaded plate: crispy chicken cutlet, braised chicken wing, Hainanese chap chye, a braised soy-sauce egg and fragrant rice, all under the brand's signature curry gravy — plus a complimentary Iced Lemon Tea with Grass Jelly thrown in. It's a proper one-plate meal at hawker-adjacent pricing, verified on Curry Times' own campaign poster (©2026 Curry Times). Available at four outlets — Novena Square (Velocity), Westgate, Changi Airport Terminal 3 and Terminal 4 — while stocks last. The catch: it's $9.90++ so GST and service charge are on top (roughly $11.65 nett), it runs only through 31 July, and the free drink is the fixed Iced Lemon Tea with Grass Jelly (not any-drink of your choice).

Dim sum and roast-meats fans, here's a proper hotel buffet at hawker-ish money: Café Mosaic at Carlton Hotel is running a 1-for-1 Hong Kong Kitchen Lunch Buffet — U.P. $62++ per adult, so with the 1-for-1 you're paying roughly $31++ a head (about $37 nett once you add the 10% service charge and 9% GST). The deal is open to a broad set of cardmembers — Citibank, DBS/POSB, OCBC or UOB — and runs daily from 12pm to 2.30pm at Level 1. Expect a Hong Kong tze-char and dim sum spread: HK Roasted Pork Belly (siew yoke), Curry Fishball, Har Gow and other steamed baskets, Hong Kong French Toast, plus the sweet-ending classics of Egg Tart and Bolo Bun. It's 1-for-1 for adult diners only, kids 7–12 are $18, seniors 55+ get 50% off, and it's not valid on the eve of public holidays or on public holidays. Carlton hasn't published a fixed end date — treat it as ongoing and confirm before you go. There's a bigger 1-for-1 Hong Kong Seafood Dinner Buffet too (U.P. $128++, Thu–Sat).

A hotel high tea with a Nyonya heart, at half price: Holiday Inn Singapore Orchard City Centre is running a 1-for-1 Straits Indulgence High Tea at Hari's Lobby Lounge & Bar — a heritage-inspired, Peranakan-and-local spread paired with free-flow premium teas and freshly brewed coffees — from 16 June till 4 September 2026, daily 12pm–5pm. Per the hotel's official offer page, the 1-for-1 price is S$78++ for 2 adults (so about $39++ a head, before the 9% GST and 10% service charge), with each additional guest at S$42++. The tiered stand leans local — think crayfish with som-tam-style salad, sambal-and-nasi-lemak bites, matcha crème brûlée and Musang King durian pengat in a coconut cup — served in the lounge overlooking the greenery. The catch: prices are before GST + service, advance reservation is advisable (it's a two-hour-ish sit-down, not a grab-and-go), and it's a standing hotel promo the property can amend at its discretion. Ideal for a leisurely afternoon with a friend or your mum.

Halal buffet lovers, here's a big one: 21 On Rajah at Aloft Singapore Novena is running a Kedai Penang Buffet with a 'Dine 4 Pay 2' deal at lunch and 'Dine 4 Pay 3' at dinner, all the way to 10 September 2026. In groups of four, two dine FREE at lunch (so weekday lunch works out to roughly $30++ per person, U.P. $60++) and one dines free at dinner. The spread is 40+ rotating Penang dishes — assam laksa, char kway teow, Hainanese chicken chop, Nyonya kueh and more, plus DIY Penang Fruit Rojak and Kueh Pie Tee stations. It's fully halal-certified, served daily 12pm–3pm and 6pm–10pm at 1 Jalan Rajah (Aloft Singapore Novena East Wing).

It's at participating outlets islandwide, while stocks last — note &Rewards pricing and scratch cards aren't available at the Takashimaya Food Hall outlet.

Burger King Singapore has just dropped a fresh bank of 20 King Deals e-coupons (codes DL1–DL20), live from 6 July right through to 4 October 2026 — savings up to 62% off across breakfast, snacks, mains, desserts and sharing bundles.

One of the cutest supermarket freebies of the year is still going: spend $18 on The Laughing Cow cheese products in a single receipt at participating FairPrice, Cold Storage, Giant, Sheng Siong or Prime supermarkets and you get a FREE limited-edition The Laughing Cow x Monchhichi tote bag with one randomly-packed collectible keychain inside. There are four keychain designs to collect — three The Laughing Cow-themed and one Singapore-exclusive featuring the Monchhichi twins tucking into a local kaya-toast-and-kopi breakfast with Marina Bay Sands and the Merlion in the background. It's a licensed Bel Group x Sekiguchi collaboration that launched mid-June 2026 and runs while stocks last — quantities are limited and not every outlet carries the gifts, so redeem early. The catch: it's one gift per $18 single receipt on The Laughing Cow products only, the keychain is random (you can't pick your design), and stocks are running down after several weeks — the SG-exclusive Merlion keychain is the one everyone wants.

One of Secret Recipe's most-requested mains is back on 1-for-1: the Braised Beef Cheek — slow-braised beef in a rich gravy over mashed potato with garlic bread — is buy-one-get-one-free at all Secret Recipe Singapore outlets from now till 31 July 2026, while stocks last. It's a proper two-can-eat-for-the-price-of-one main (not a mini or side), confirmed on Secret Recipe Singapore's own Facebook page: "Our 1-for-1 braised beef cheek promotion is back! Enjoy this promotion till 31st July! Available at all outlets, while stocks last!" No promo code or app was flagged on the announcement — just order two and one is free. The catch: it's while-stocks-last (a popular dish can run out at peak), the post doesn't state the a-la-carte price so check the menu, and any GST at your outlet is on top of the listed price.

Durian season, but make it high tea: Lobby Lounge at Singapore Marriott Tang Plaza has brought back its Mao Shan Wang Durian Afternoon Tea for 1 July–31 August 2026. The spread puts Mao Shan Wang (Musang King) front and centre across a sweet-and-savoury tower — Mango Sago Durian Puff, Durian Cheesecake, Durian Yam Mochi Tart and a Durian Tiramisu with lemongrass jelly, alongside savouries like Smoked Duck Mango Brioche and a Grilled Mushroom & Miso Mayo Tartlet — and it comes with FREE-FLOW TWG teas and Lavazza coffee, plus a flute of champagne or sparkling tea on weekends.

Set an early alarm: on Wednesday, 8 July 2026, 7-Eleven Singapore is giving away 2,500 FREE ready-to-eat sandwiches islandwide — no membership, no app, no minimum spend. From 8:00am, the first 50 customers at each of 50 participating stores get a free sandwich in one of two popular flavours: Egg & Cheese or Tuna. That works out to just 50 sandwiches per store, so once they're gone, they're gone — the classic 'don't say bojio, be kiasu' situation. This is the opening act of 7-Eleven's new 'Find the Good Stuff' campaign, which is handing out free ready-to-eat items every Wednesday through July (packed meals, onigiri and wraps on the following weeks). Here's the confirmed store list by region, exactly how to redeem, and the fine print to check before you queue.

Homegrown snack brand Tai Sun is marking its 60th anniversary with a sweet crossover: it has teamed up with beloved local ice cream maker Creamier on two limited-edition scoop flavours inspired by Tai Sun's iconic nuts — Salted Vanilla Almonds and Peanut Toffee — available at all Creamier outlets from 27 July 2026 onwards. On top of that, spend a minimum of $8 on participating Tai Sun nuts products at major supermarkets (FairPrice and others) and you get a FREE mini-pouch blind box, in one of four collectible designs, while stocks last. It's a low-effort win: your usual bag of almonds or roasted peanuts now comes with a surprise pouch, and there's a nut-flavoured ice cream to chase down at Creamier if you want to make an occasion of it. The collaboration runs till 31 August 2026 — here's exactly how each part works, where to go, and the fine print to check before you shop.

Japan's No.1 conveyor-belt sushi chain has opened its newest Singapore outlet at myVillage @ Serangoon Garden — and it's marking the launch with 14 days of rotating half-price signature sushi (7–20 July 2026). A different premium plate goes at exactly 50% off every few days: Bluefin Fatty Tuna $4.90++ (U.P. $9.80++) on 7–8 Jul, Big Red Shrimp $2.30++ (U.P. $4.60++) on 9–10 Jul, Big Cut Fresh Salmon $2.90++ (U.P. $5.80++) on 11–13 Jul, Aburi Soy Sauce Engawa $2.30++ (U.P. $4.60++) on 14–15 Jul, Salmon Roe Wrap $3.90++ (U.P. $7.80++) on 16–17 Jul, and Medium Fatty Tuna $3.90++ (U.P. $7.80++) on 18–20 Jul — order two of the day's plate and you pay what one normally costs, i.e. 1-for-1 value.

Ice cream for (almost) free: Swensen's Unlimited has opened Sundae Club at its Geneo outlet — a self-serve, build-your-own ice cream bar where you scoop from 48 ice cream and gelato flavours (Vanilla, Cookies & Cream, even Mao Shan Wang Durian with Sea Salt Gula Melaka), pile on 50+ toppings, then weigh and pay just $0.038 per gram (incl. GST). To celebrate the launch, your first 100g is FREE with a minimum 100g purchase — for the entire month of July 2026. That effectively halves a 200g cup, taking it from ~$7.60 down to ~$3.80. It's the Geneo outlet only (1 Science Park Drive, #01-06), open 11am–10pm daily, while stocks last.

Last-call caffeine hack: Starbucks Singapore has a 1-for-1 (买一送一) Venti deal running through the Shopee 7.7 Super Sale — but it ends TOMORROW, Monday 7 July 2026, and the vouchers are redeemable ONLY inside the Shopee App. Six of the most-ordered Venti drinks qualify: Iced Matcha Latte, Java Chip Frappuccino, Chocolate Chip Crème Frappuccino, Caramel Frappuccino, Iced Vanilla Latte and the Pistachio Oatmilk Iced Shaken Latte.

Grab the vouchers in the Shopee app before the 7.7 sale closes, then redeem in-store within the voucher validity window. Here's exactly which drinks are in, how the Shopee redemption works, and the fine print to check before you tap 'buy'.

The outdoor MarketPlace is free to enter (10am–8pm). Here's every ticket price, the highlights worth queueing for, and the fine print.

The XXL Crispy Chicken is their hand-sized signature — crunchy outside, juicy inside, dusted in that addictive six-spice coating — and third-party menu listings put it around $8.30 a la carte, so the second at half price works out to roughly $12+ for two instead of ~$16.60 (prices vary by outlet — confirm when you order). No credit card, no app code needed on the mechanic as published; go with a friend, or just buy two. It's a 'limited time only' promo tied to Fried Chicken Day (Mon 6 Jul), so don't leave it to the last minute.

A cheap, air-conditioned east-side sweet stop right on top of Paya Lebar MRT.

Wondering when the next Shopee sale is? It is already running.

Monday 6 July is International Fried Chicken Day, and Singapore's chicken chains are turning it into a week-long fry-up: Texas Chicken has teased $1 fried chicken for one day only (6 Jul, mechanics dropping on their socials); Popeyes is doing a 5pc chicken bucket at $10.90 (U.P. $24.50) on 6–7 Jul, dine-in and takeaway; 4Fingers marks 4Fingers Day with 4pc Wingettes & Drumettes at $4 TODAY only (4 Jul); Jollibee gives 1 free Chickenjoy with every 6pc bucket and 2 free with every 8pc bucket from 3–6 Jul; and McDonald's has 4pc Chicken McCrispy Honey Soy at $9.90 (U.P. from $14.70) till 8 Jul, on top of its $9.90 20pc Spicy Jalapeño McNuggets (KFC's two-2pc-meals-for-$10 app deal ended 3 Jul). Here's every deal, with dates, terms and a plan of attack.

SAF Day was 1 July, and the appreciation campaign it kicked off closed on 31 August 2026. The headline bundles went with it: Burger King's $10.95 Book Out Bundle, Canadian 2 for 1 Pizza's $15.90 two-pax set, Springleaf Prata's 10%, the $72 Universal Studios adult ticket, the $99 JBL at Best Denki, Klook, Toys"R"Us and Genki Sushi. What almost nobody tells you is that SAFRA's standing 11B catalogue never stopped. The 1-for-1 hotel buffets run to 31 December 2026, Tiffany and Kintamani hold 40% off buffets to 28 February 2027, Mandai keeps 30% off all seven parks to 31 March 2027, and Jacob's Cafe runs to 31 August 2027. The catch is who qualifies: Cable Car, Majestic Fast Ferry, SneakSurf and Wild Wild Wet are now SAFRA members only, so an 11B on its own no longer opens them. Wings of Time still takes both. Here is what survived, what closed, and what changed hands on 1 September.

Mark your calendar for tomorrow: Pepper Lunch is doing 1-for-1 on its signature Beef Pepper Rice for one day only, 3 July 2026 — the brand's new 'World Pepper Rice Day'. Order one sizzling Beef Pepper Rice and a second comes free, so two of you effectively split the price of one. It's dine-in only, one redemption per customer while stocks last, across participating Pepper Lunch Restaurants, Pepper Lunch Express and Pepper Kitchen outlets islandwide. Beef Pepper Rice only (no meat swaps) and it can't be stacked with other discounts. Here's how to make the most of it.

DBS has now published the campaign's full terms, and three of them decide whether you actually get the S$3. It starts on Saturday 29 August 2026 and runs every Saturday to 19 December, 17 Saturdays in all. Redemption opens at 6am each Saturday and stops once 160,000 qualifying transactions have gone through. There is no minimum spend: you get 100% of what you spend back, capped at S$3. The trap is that only your FIRST eligible PayLah! transaction each Saturday counts, so a S$1.20 kopi bought first burns the whole week's redemption for S$1.20. The bigger change since DBS announced this on 25 August: the bank has published an address-level list of participating merchants, and a stall that is not on that list pays you nothing even if it happily accepts PayLah!. The list runs to 418 pages and covers roughly 8,700 named heartland shops plus 120 hawker centres, 79 wet markets, 672 coffee shops and 62 JTC industrial canteens. Payments routed through ShopeePay, Fave, Qashier, ShopBack and 15 other payment providers are excluded, as are shops inside private malls such as Bugis Junction and Great World City.

From 22 June 2026, Sheng Siong is exclusively on foodpanda — more than 12,000 groceries and household essentials from 43 outlets islandwide, delivered to your door in as fast as an hour. To launch it, every Sheng Siong order on foodpanda automatically enters a daily S$10,000 cash draw (one winner a day, S$280,000 total) until 19 July, with up to 40% off selected items and free delivery for pandapro members. Now updated with foodpanda's official release: why the tie-up happened (grocery orders on the platform are up 7% since 2023), the new three-wheeler fleet for bulky orders, and what the two companies say about it.

Updated 3 Sep: eating out on a budget? We round up the cheap fast-food and coffee promotions actually live in Singapore right now.

Which deals run on which days, the prices, and the catches.

Where can you actually spend your $500 CDC Vouchers? On 31 August 2026 the Government's own locator listed 26,381 participating outlets: 25,979 hawkers and heartland merchants, plus 402 supermarkets. The supermarket 402 break down as FairPrice 165, Sheng Siong 87, Giant 39, Prime 28, Cold Storage 23, CS Fresh 20, U Stars 18, Ang Mo Supermarket 10, HAO Mart 7, four Jason's stores and one Hill View Market Place. There is no printed CDC voucher merchant list for the heartland half, because shops join and leave continuously; the locator at go.gov.sg/cdcvouchers is the only complete source. The $500 splits into $250 for supermarkets and $250 for heartland merchants and hawkers, the two halves are not interchangeable, and it runs till 31 December 2027. Below: the merchant picture in full, the mechanic that quietly costs people money (vouchers come in fixed $2, $5 and $10 and merchants cannot give change), and 5 ways to make the $500 offset real bills.

The 1-for-1 ends Wed 11 Jun — so this is a now-or-never afternoon coffee run.

A rare hotel-spa discount to run into the second half of the year: Oasia Spa at Oasia Resort Sentosa is marking its 5th anniversary with up to 26% OFF à la carte body massages, bookable now through 30 September 2026. The headline rates are $150 nett for a 60-minute body massage (U.P. $203.83 nett) and $200 nett for 90 minutes (U.P. $263.78 nett) — and because these are NETT prices, the 10% service charge and 9% GST are already baked in, so what you see is what you pay. Advance reservation is required and slots are subject to availability and blackout dates, booked by email (oasiaspa.orsentosa@fareast.com) or phone (+65 6818 3338). It can't be combined with other promotions and isn't exchangeable for cash. A genuinely good-value pick for a Sentosa spa day without the packaged-treatment markup — pick whatever massage you like at near-flat anniversary pricing.

Typhoon Cafe has put its Taiwanese buffet on a kids-eat-free deal for the whole of September: one child below the age of 10 dines free with every 2 paying buffet adults, from 1 to 30 September 2026, at its single outlet on level 4 of Plaza Singapura. The restaurant's own T&Cs then take two thirds of the month back, and neither of the two conditions is on the poster. It runs Monday to Thursday only, and it is strictly for guests with a prior reservation, so a family that walks in gets nothing. The free seat is worth $15.90++ at lunch and $18.90++ at dinner off Typhoon's own published buffet menu, which is $19.06 or $22.66 once the 10% service charge and 9% GST land, and the ratio is fixed at 1 free child per 2 paying adults. Two quirks are worth knowing before you book: the Monday-to-Thursday rule also dodges the $3++ per head that Typhoon adds from Friday to Sunday, so the qualifying days are the cheap days anyway, and the buffet's own child rate covers ages 5 to 10 while the promotion stops below 10, which means a 10-year-old still pays. Inside the September school holidays (5 to 13 September), exactly four days qualify.

Updated 7 Sep: our running list of live Singapore deals, sorted by urgency. NEW THIS AFTERNOON, AND ORDERS CLOSE ON 21 SEPTEMBER: Xin Cuisine at Holiday Inn Singapore Atrium is running 1-for-1 on 10 mooncake flavours, where the price on the page buys two boxes. From $84 for two six-piece mini snowskin boxes, so $42 a box and $7 a piece. It sits beside a flat 30% off and the two do not stack: we put both versions of the same box through the cart, and the 1-for-1 listing took no discount at all while the single box fell from $92 to $64.40, so buying two boxes off the wrong page costs $128.80 instead of $92. The two Signature Series boxes get neither offer, only a 15% line, which is not the 30% on the collection banner and not the 20% printed on their own product pages. ALSO NEW TODAY, AND IT RUNS TO 30 NOVEMBER: SKAI on the 70th floor of Swissôtel The Stamford has turned its afternoon tea over to Disney and Pixar's Toy Story. Ten pieces plus a scone at S$78++ an adult and S$39++ a child aged 6 to 12, which is S$93.52 and S$46.76 once the 10% service charge and 9% GST go on. The catch sits in the menus: SKAI publishes three, and the children's set is not the adult set halved, it drops Hamm, Lotso and the Aliens, leaving eight pieces against an adult's eleven. The vegetarian set keeps all ten and swaps ingredients instead. ALSO TODAY: KFC's $5.50 Curry Twister meal opens its one week of mornings, IKEA's Kids Eat Free starts its five weekdays, and Subway's second breakfast wrap is free before 11am, this morning only. LAST DAY TODAY: Trust Bank's S$3 coupons, King Koil's warehouse sale and PAUL's Teacher's Day macaron box. Four deals that closed with 6 September have been removed.

Short answer on GSS 2026: there is no islandwide Great Singapore Sale any more. The Singapore Retailers Association stopped organising the GSS after 2022 and replaced it with the Singapore Retail Festival, whose 2026 edition ran 4-26 July, with festival grounds at Ngee Ann City Civic Plaza over three themed weekends to 19 July and a closing weekend that moved to Funan and Bugis Street. That means no single June-to-August sale window and no centralised launch date: malls and retailers now run their own promotions on their own calendars. This guide explains what actually changed, plus the 8 brand categories still worth watching (Takashimaya, Tangs, Apple Singapore, Sephora + Watsons, Uniqlo + Zara, Best Denki + Courts, Books Kinokuniya, and mall-wide events at VivoCity, Jewel, MBS, Ion and Paragon), with a discount-stacking method and tourist GST refund steps. Updated 2 September 2026: with National Day over, the whole calendar now points at the year end sale run, and the dates to plan around are 9.9 on 9 September, Amazon Prime Big Deal Days in October, 10.10, 11.11, Black Friday on 27 November and 12.12. We re-checked Apple's Back to School offer, which is still live and still gives AirTags rather than the AirPods or Apple Pencil most guides list, and corrected the Mac mini education price after Apple moved it to the M6 generation.

Neo Group's FIRST-EVER Experiential Fiesta — 4 consecutive Fri-Sun weekends through June 2026 at Neo Group HQ (30B Quality Road, Level 1).

Popeyes Singapore's Mac Attack bundle promo — buy one bundle (Chicken Sandwich + Creamy Mac & Cheese side + drink) get the second FREE — wraps up Thursday 5 June 2026. Available at all SG Popeyes outlets, dine-in or takeaway at the counter. Math: single bundle is S$10.90, so 1-for-1 effectively drops each to S$5.45. Best Popeyes price point of 2026 so far. NOT eligible on Grab / Foodpanda / Deliveroo — outlet counter only.

An Açaí Affair runs a flash 1-for-1 on its Nutty Party açaí bowls for ONE day only — Friday 6 June 2026. Single Nutty Party bowl is S$15.90, so 1-for-1 drops each to S$7.95. Available at all 5 An Açaí Affair outlets (Cathay Cineleisure, Tanjong Pagar, Tampines 1, Bugis+, IMM). Dine-in or self-takeaway at the outlet — NOT on Grab / Foodpanda. Limited batches per outlet daily — arrive before peak lunch hour (12-1.30pm) to be safe.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf Singapore is taking pre-orders for its limited-edition Father's Day Banana Speculoos Cheesecake at 50% off through Sunday 7 June 2026. Whole 6-inch cake (serves 6-8): normal retail S$58, pre-order price S$29. Collection window 13-15 June (Father's Day weekend) at any of 30+ SG outlets. Limited quantity per outlet — first come first served at the pre-order stage. Pre-order MUST be placed IN PERSON at the outlet counter (not online).

Greenwood Fish Market is going beyond seafood for Father's Day 2026 — a week-long Japanese A5 Wagyu promotion from 15-21 June at Bukit Timah + Quayside Isle Sentosa. Chargrilled Nakayama A5 Wagyu Denver Cut at $39.95++ per 100g (UP $58++/100g ≈ 31% off), 100g minimum and 100g increments thereafter, NO set menus and NO minimum spend. Pair with GFM oysters, seafood platters, or signature Wellingtons. Plus extended happy hour 12pm-10pm daily at Greenwood Sports Bar (Quayside Isle): pool $2/game, free darts, draught beers from $10.95++.

Orchid Live Seafood is running THREE concurrent Father's Day promos through 30 June 2026: (1) 1-for-1 Live Boston Lobsters at $88 for two — cooked Butter Mushroom Garlic with Glass Vermicelli or Cream Cheese with Garlic Bits; (2) 50% OFF four brand-new a la carte dishes Mon-Fri only at HomeTeamNS Khatib (Taiwanese White Eel with Flambé Maotai, Teochew Baked Turbot, Crispy Char Siew, Crispy Popiah Rolls); (3) Father's Day set menus from $88/pax (7-course at Jalan Kelulut) up to $1,388++ (10-pax 9-course feast with 6 types of live tank-to-table seafood at Khatib). 2 outlets, full booking + math breakdown.

Haidilao's VivoCity outlet (#03-09) runs a Buy-1-Free-3 same-item meats promo from 25 May to 12 Jun 2026 — order one portion of Haidilao Beef, Duroc Pork Belly, Chicken, or Fish Fillet and get THREE MORE of the same item free. Off-peak windows only: before 6pm Mon-Fri or after 9.30pm Sun-Thu. NA on eve of PH + PH. Best math: order the most expensive meat (Haidilao Beef ~S$28-32) — net 4 portions for the price of 1 = ~75% off.

Kiehl's marks 175 years since its 1851 NYC apothecary launch with 20% off storewide at all Singapore counters + online, an additional 5% voucher for existing members, a FREE Kiehl's drawstring pouch for the first 50 online shoppers (code EARLYBIRD), and 2x bonus points on orders S$500+. Black Diamond + Sapphire tier perks on top. Ends Fri 22 May.

UNIQLO Singapore's biggest annual customer-thank-you week is back, 22-28 May 2026. The headline freebie: a UNIQLO Lunch Bag with S$100 min spend (APP members, while stocks last). Plus a DBS/POSB Sure-Win Garapon spin per S$100, the first Cecilie Bahnsen SS2026 collaboration launching 22 May, and the UNIQLO x Chatterbox UTme local-food-themed UT collection.

Mothercare's Sengkang Grand Mall outlet shuts on Saturday 17 May 2026. Moving out sale is on now: storewide promotions on baby clothing, strollers, car seats, feeding accessories, nursery essentials, plus an extra $8 off every $80 spend (stackable!) and a free $10 voucher with every transaction. Last 2 days. 10:30am-9pm daily.

Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf has rolled out a new Mon-Fri morning breakfast set — a Japanese bagel topped with truffle cream cheese, scrambled eggs, side salad, mini orange juice, and a small Café Latte. S$8.50 for one, S$12.50 for two (S$6.25/pax — great deal). Most outlets included.

FIFA World Cup 2026 starts 11 June. Singapore broadcast: 28 of 104 matches free on Channel 5 + meWATCH; all 104 matches via the S$118 Mediacorp Season Pass on meWATCH / StarHub TV+ / Singtel TV / CAST.SG. Early-bird S$98 window is closed. Here's how to decide before the opener.

ASTONS keeps the anniversary celebration rolling: $21 Ribeye Steak with Supreme Salad Buffet at all ASTONS Steak & Salad outlets, 19 May 2026 only. Dine-in walk-ins only, 1 order per pax, 3pm-5pm closure. Premium upgrade from the 21¢ Chargrilled Chicken deal four days earlier.

KFC's *SCAPE outlet at Orchard is running a 7-week 1-for-1 meal promo on Zinger, BBQ Pockett, and 3pc Tender meals — all from S$8.10 for two meals. In-store kiosk or KFC app only, single outlet, till 30 June 2026.

HEYTEA's renovated Orchard Central flagship reopens 15 May with a week of 1-for-1 ANY drinks, plus free fridge magnets (15–18 May) or pins (19–21 May) capped at 600/day. Single outlet, dine-in only, 1 redemption per pax. Worth the queue if you're nearby.

ASTONS Specialities turns 21 — and is selling its signature Chargrilled Chicken with 2 sides for just 21¢ (down from S$10.90) on 15 May 2026, all 9 outlets, walk-ins only, 1 per pax, with a midday closure 3pm–5pm. Plan your queue.

GoPizza Singapore regularly runs three stacking value promos — a 60¢ second-pizza deal, a $10.90 single-pax meal, and a $5.90 chicken-crunch box. Here's what each is worth, which is the real deal, and what to order. Promos rotate, so confirm in-store or on the GoPizza app before going.

Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf launched three Fresh & Fruity cold brew teas — Yuzu Sencha, Peach Jasmine, Watermelon Mint Lychee — with a 2-for-$12 intro promo, alongside the Elemental Duo-Sip Tumbler at $29.90. Here's what's worth ordering and the small print. Seasonal promos rotate, so check the current Coffee Bean menu before ordering.

The 1-percentage-point GST hike sounded modest in the 2023 announcements. Two years on, here's the arithmetic on what 9% (versus the pre-2023 7%) actually costs three illustrative Singapore households — and what the CDC and GST Vouchers do and don't cover.

Most Singaporeans treat the CPF Special Account like a slightly-higher-interest savings account. It isn't — and the rules changed for those over 55 from 2025. Here's a plain explainer of what the SA does, why the 4% floor matters, and what actually happened to it.

There is no such thing as a 'crypto exchange licence' in Singapore. What exists is a Major Payment Institution licence carrying the Digital Payment Token activity, and exactly 38 entities hold it. We list all 38, then price the five most-used ones straight off their own September 2026 fee pages, including the spread that the one-tap buy button quietly adds on top of the advertised percentage.

Buy Now Pay Later in Singapore has thinned out to three real players. Pace went into liquidation, ShopBack PayLater (and hoolah) shut on 22 March 2024, LatitudePay left on 19 April 2024, and Klarna has no Singapore consumer service. We compared what's actually left — Atome, Shopee SPayLater and Grab PayLater — on instalment terms, fees, late charges and eligibility.

The maths changed in 2026: three of these five brokers now charge nothing at all to trade US stocks. We checked every fee against the brokers' own published rate cards on 5 September 2026: commission, the platform fee most comparisons forget, SGX rates, and which ones actually link to CDP. Includes a straight moomoo vs Tiger vs Webull fee head-to-head on the three apps most people shortlist.

Father's Day in Singapore falls on the third Sunday of June — it is not a public holiday, and the next one is Sunday 20 June 2027. We curated 7 genuinely useful gifts for Singapore dads, most under S$200: Brewlander craft beer, a MEATER grill thermometer, JBL noise-cancelling earbuds from S$99, single-malt whisky on Amoy Street, and a Sultan's Experience shave at Sultans of Shave (S$130–140). Practical, local where possible, no boring polo shirts.

Bao's Pastry (鲍师傅 糕点) — the China-viral bakery that landed at Paya Lebar Square last May — is celebrating its Singapore 1st anniversary by giving away 600 of its signature pork-floss seaweed Xiaobei cakes from 8–10 May. 200 free cakes per day, first-come-first-served. Here's exactly how to claim yours.

Coupon-aggregator sites list dozens of Floristique and JM Flower codes. Almost none work. We checked all five florists (Far East Flora, Floristique, JM Flower, Little Flower Hut and Windflower) on their own sites in August 2026: JM Flower is the only one publishing live codes, Floristique publishes none, and Windflower has quietly launched a rewards programme instead. We also priced what delivery really costs, because only one of the five is free with no conditions, and mapped which florists can still deliver on a Sunday.

Which multi-currency card is genuinely best in Singapore? We compare YouTrip, Revolut, Wise and Amaze on exchange rates, plan prices, overseas ATM allowances and the fees each one hides, all re-checked against the providers' own pages on 27 August 2026.

Three of the twelve dropped their 1-for-1 over the past fortnight, so this is the list after the September reset. Still genuine: Café Mosaic at Carlton, where the Hong Kong dim sum lunch buffet is $68++ daily on four banks (about $34++ a head); Sun's Café at Hotel Grand Pacific, the cheapest per head at roughly S$30-33++; The Line at Shangri-La, S$72++ lunch for two on HSBC Premier; and Plate at Carlton City, now three separate 1-for-1 buffets with three different end dates. Gone: The Westin's Seasonal Tastes reopened on Level 32 on 1 September with 50% off the second diner instead, and Mercure Bugis moved its 1-for-1 off the buffet onto the $50++ afternoon tea. Window on the Park's 1-for-1 crab and lobster dinner restarts 10 September at S$168++ for two.

Opening your first bank account at 16, or starting university? We compare POSB My Account, OCBC FRANK, UOB Stash, CIMB FastSaver and Trust Bank to answer the question students actually ask: which bank is best for students, and which pays real interest without fees. Every rate checked against the banks' own published tables in September 2026.

Comprehensive car insurance in Singapore runs about S$700–1,800/year depending on your NCD, age and car — but the bigger variable in 2026 is which website you buy the same policy from. Income's Drivo and FWD's car insurance are the same product from the same underwriter (Income Insurance Limited, UEN 202135698W), and each channel now runs a different offer: Income's own site pays STAR$ in eCapitaVouchers, while FWD's page runs a flat 10% off with promo code FWDINCOME from 17 August to 31 December 2026. Income's terms say you cannot take both. The STAR$ headline is also banded: 475,000 STAR$ (S$475) needs an annual premium of S$2,400 or more, and the entry S$600–899 band pays 180,000 (S$180) — so the 10% only beats the vouchers above roughly S$4,200 of premium. Elsewhere the gates do the work: Allianz's AZMSG61 runs to 30 September 2026 but is Comprehensive-only and excludes high-performance vehicles and Mercedes-Benz EQ models; DirectAsia's headline S$100 of Shell fuel is new-customer comprehensive only (existing customers get S$30, third-party S$20) and that offer ends 31 August 2026; and DirectAsia is the only insurer here selling NCD60, an extra 10% off base premium for drivers who have held NCD50 five years running. Every promo, code, band and end date below was read off each insurer's own page or T&C PDF on 26 August 2026.

The Singapore promotions that are genuinely live this week, each re-checked against the brand's own channel on 26 August 2026. Cygnet's S$48 bottomless steak frites runs Mon–Sat, El Chido pours 1-for-1 tacos every Tuesday, Guzman y Gomez drops S$3 Brekkie Burritos on the 3rd of every month, and Burger King's 20 app coupons are always on. Two headline claims did not survive this check: Sky22's half-price second main and OMMA's flat 50% off have both come off their own channels, and we say so below rather than leave them to rot.

Seven genuinely thoughtful gifts for Singapore mums, all under S$100: local-flavoured ETTE tea sets, LEGO flower bouquets, candle-making workshops, SOJAO organic-cotton loungewear, florist bouquets, afternoon tea and bakery cakes. Every price re-checked on 1 September 2026. Works for Mother's Day (next: Sunday 9 May 2027), birthdays, or any just-because Sunday.

DBS Altitude now pays 38,000 miles for S$800 of spend, the same hurdle that gets you 30,960 at Citi PremierMiles. We compare Singapore's 5 best miles credit cards for 2026 on sign-up bonuses, annual fees, miles-per-dollar and lounge access, with every figure re-checked against the issuer's own site on 31 August 2026.

Singapore savings rates fell hard through 2026, with UOB One down to a maximum 1.90%, and the neobanks cut just as deeply. Three of the five moved again in the past month. GXS raised its Boost Pocket ceiling to 1.75% p.a. and is running a 3% p.a. guaranteed save-and-invest campaign to 30 September. MariBank now advertises up to 3.08% p.a. after adding a salary-crediting bonus. StashAway is offering new clients 6.2% p.a. yield to maturity on Simple Plus if they sign up and invest by 11 September. We compare Trust, GXS, MariBank, Chocolate Finance and StashAway Simple on what they actually pay in September 2026: real rates, caps, conditions and fine print, including Chocolate's SG61 booster running to 30 September. Every figure below was read off each provider's own site on 3 September 2026.

A single hospitalisation can pass S$3,000 at a Singapore vet, and pet insurance reimburses up to 80% of it. We compare all 4 pet insurance plans for dogs and cats in 2026: Happy Tails (Income), Liberty PetCare, MSIG PawEasy and Etiqa Pet Insurance, on annual limits, deductibles, age caps and which ones actually cover hereditary conditions like hip dysplasia. Includes the one plan that prices cats 20% cheaper, and the S$0-deductible add-on most owners miss.

[ENDED 3 May 2026] Starbucks Singapore ran a Friends & Family deal: any Tall handcrafted drink (including Frappuccinos and matcha) at S$4.90 each when you bought 2 in a single order. Save up to S$3.60 per cup vs regular prices. The promo ended 3 May 2026 — see our current Singapore deals roundup for active alternatives.

We compare Singapore's 5 best travel insurance plans for 2026: FWD (cheapest), Income Insurance (family cover), Travel Guard (S$2M medical, now underwritten by Zurich), Allianz (S$2M medical and S$15,000 cancellation on Platinum) and Tiq. Every live promo code carries its verified end date, re-checked 29 August 2026, plus break-even math for annual plans. Note: AIG stopped selling Travel Guard directly on 27 January 2026.

Fly 3+ times a year? An annual multi-trip travel insurance plan, which some insurers sell as a yearly plan, beats buying single-trip cover each time. We compare Singapore's 5 best annual plans from FWD, Income (NTUC), Travel Guard, Allianz and Tiq, with break-even math and promo codes re-verified on 3 September 2026.

Should you stay on HDB's 2.6% concessionary loan or refinance to a bank? As at 31 August 2026, HDB-eligible bank fixed packages run from roughly 1.45% to 1.78% p.a., so refinancing still saves real money. One dated catch worth knowing today: POSB's 3-year fixed HDB rate rises from 1.70% to 1.78% for loan offers accepted from 1 September 2026, per DBS's own page. We compare the 5 best HDB home loan options in Singapore for 2026 (the HDB concessionary loan, DBS/POSB, OCBC, UOB and Standard Chartered), plus the 75% LTV rule that changed how much cash you need upfront.

From Endowus's CPF/SRS investing to StashAway's macro-driven ERAA algorithm and Syfe's no-minimum portfolios, we compare Singapore's 5 best robo-advisor investment apps for 2026 on fees, minimums and which ones actually accept CPF or SRS money. Two of the five take neither.

Sending money home or paying for an overseas property? Bank wires still cost S$30+ and lose 3% on the rate. We compare the 5 best remittance apps in Singapore for 2026 — fees, FX spreads, speed, and which money transfer app to use for which corridor.

MariBank has raised its advertised rate to 3.08% p.a. and Trust still leads on 2.40% p.a., but neither number is a rate you can simply park money at. MariBank's 3.08% is 0.88% base plus a 1.60% bonus that stops after 30 days, plus 0.40% for a paid ShopeeVIP subscription, plus a new 0.20% for crediting your salary. Trust's 2.40% is only reachable if one of your three monthly bonus picks is referring a credit card customer who gets approved that month; without that referral the Flex Plan ceiling is 1.50%. The best rate with genuinely nothing to do stays GXS Saving Pockets at 1.08% p.a. Below: what each account pays once the promotion ends, the balance caps, the two products here that carry no SDIC cover at all, and three sign-up offers closing in September.

The biggest fast-food and café chains in Singapore run app-exclusive promos that most people don't know about. We checked the live deals and prices from Starbucks, McDonald's, Coffee Bean, KFC, Burger King and Subway, then worked out which apps are actually worth the space on your phone.

The Starbucks Rewards app is quietly one of the best café loyalty programmes in Singapore. Here's every deal, shortcut, and member-only perk worth knowing in 2026 — including the 4 discounted drinks you get just for signing up.

MyM Rewards, weekday lunch deals from S$6.90, app-only coupons — McDonald's Singapore runs more hidden promos than any other fast-food chain. Here's everything worth knowing for 2026.

CBTL Rewards quietly offers better cashback than most Singapore dining credit cards — 5% effective cashback on every purchase, plus 50% off for new members. Here's how to use it right.

KFC Singapore's Chicken Tuesday is one of the best fast-food discounts around when it runs — 5 pieces for S$9.95 (55% off). Plus current June deals: Lil' Bucket Meals from S$4.95, $25 8pc bucket, $10 Zinger Box & app-only combos. Here's the full 2026 guide.

Burger King Singapore's app runs the most aggressive discounts of any fast-food chain — up to 61% off with rotating coupon codes. Here's the full guide to every current deal for 2026.

Subway's Sub of the Day at S$4.99 is Singapore's quietest great lunch deal — 40-50% off a 6-inch sub, different every day. Plus MyWay Rewards and Meal of the Day combos. Here's the 2026 guide.

Earn money back on every purchase. We ranked Singapore's top cashback apps for online shopping, dining and travel, with the redemption caps, payout thresholds and expiry rules that decide how much you actually keep.

Is Foodpanda cheaper than Grab in Singapore? Not on delivery. Both apps price the fee dynamically, both land in the same S$1.99-S$4.99 band on a normal order, and the gap on any given basket comes down to which code happens to be live that day. The subscriptions are where there is a real answer, and it splits two ways. GrabUnlimited and pandapro both cost S$5.99 a month, but GrabUnlimited falls to about S$4.99 on the S$59.88 annual plan, so it is the cheaper subscription outright. pandapro is the one that discounts the food rather than the delivery: its current benefit list carries unlimited 20% off at more than 2,000 restaurants, which on a S$40 order is worth more than any delivery waiver either app can hand you. We read Grab's promo-code page, the GrabUnlimited page and foodpanda's deals page on 26 August 2026, and every August code on both apps expires 31 August.

Free shipping is the headline, but the fee that decides your total is often a different one. FairPrice waives delivery at S$59 and charges S$5.00 below it, yet its own rate page states the service fee is a fixed fee included on all online orders, so a non-member still pays S$3.99 on a S$200 basket that already qualifies for free delivery. We read every figure below off each platform's own page on 27 August 2026. iHerb ships free to Singapore from SG$30 but only on selected shipping services. Lazada's LazMall free shipping is not a waiver at all: its own page states it arrives as a Free Shipping Voucher capped at S$1.49, so anything bulky or going a longer distance is a part-discount. Zalora waives delivery from S$50, counted per seller and after discounts. Shopee stays voucher-based, and two SAFRA codes we re-confirmed on SAFRA's own page run to 31 December 2026: 2026SAFRA15OFF for S$15 off with no minimum spend on a first order, and 2026SAFRA9OFF for S$9 off above S$70. Two corrections while we were in FairPrice's rate pages. The Pioneer, Merdeka and senior discounts every grocery roundup lists do not apply online at all, because FairPrice requires the cardholder to be physically present. And CHAS Blue and Orange cardholders are the only shoppers who get that S$3.99 service fee waived without paying for a membership.

GrabFood vs Foodpanda and the rest. We ranked every food delivery app still operating in Singapore by what you actually pay: subscription value, the four fees that land on every bill, and restaurant choice. Both subscriptions now sit at S$5.99/month, so the cheaper app depends on whether you buy groceries too. Updated after Deliveroo closed its Singapore service on 4 March 2026.

DBS vs OCBC vs UOB vs Citi: we compared Singapore's top credit cards by cashback rate, monthly cap, minimum spend, annual fee and welcome bonus, so you know exactly which card to put in your wallet.

Skip the supermarket queues: we compared the four biggest online grocery shopping platforms in Singapore on delivery fees, speed, and product range so you can stock your fridge without leaving home. The single most expensive assumption shoppers make is that free delivery kicks in at the same basket size everywhere. It doesn't. FairPrice Online goes free at $59, RedMart at $60 on a standard 6-hour slot, Cold Storage only at $80, and Sheng Siong Online not until $100. So a $59 trolley ships free at the first, misses the bar at the second, and still costs $7 at the third. And 'free' is not quite free at FairPrice: its help centre confirms the separate service fee, currently $3.99, is charged on every online order no matter how big your basket. Digital Club members escape it on $59+ subtotals, and from 3 September 2026 so do CHAS Blue and Orange cardholders on their discount day with a $100 minimum spend. Note too that Amazon Fresh shut its Singapore grocery service on 6 July 2026. Fees, thresholds and membership perks below were re-checked against each platform's own published terms in September 2026.

DBS Multiplier vs OCBC 360 vs UOB One vs BOC SmartSaver vs SC Bonus$aver — the best savings account for salary crediting is not the one with the biggest number on the poster. Every headline rate on this list hides an insurance or investment purchase, and on salary plus card spend alone the ranking inverts completely: OCBC 2.20%, UOB 1.90%, Standard Chartered 1.85%, DBS 1.80%, BOC 1.60%. DBS pays that rate on only your first S$50,000 until you hit a second bonus category — a cap most comparisons quote as S$100,000. Rates read off each bank's own rate card on 24 August 2026.

Is Grab still worth it, or should you switch to Gojek, TADA, Ryde, CDG Zig, Geolah or Trans-Cab? Seven operators now hold a full Ride-hail Service Operator Licence from LTA, and what changed most in 2026 is not the fare. It is the two fixed charges bolted on top of it. Every operator raised its platform fee at the start of the year, and then four of them added a fuel surcharge on top: Grab and Gojek at 90 cents a trip, TADA at 90 cents to S$1.20 and CDG Zig at 50 to 80 cents, all extended to 30 September 2026 and passed to drivers in full. That makes Grab's real fixed cost S$2.10 a trip, not the S$1.20 platform fee most people quote, although Grab's is the surcharge that skips Standard and metered taxi rides. Two more charges never make it onto a comparison table: Trans-Cab's Smile Ride quietly runs its own S$0.60 driver fee to the same 30 September date on top of a platform fee that starts at S$0.80, and Ryde and Trans-Cab both bill a percentage transaction fee for paying by card, enough to cost Ryde the cheapest-app title above roughly a S$20 fare. Bigger still, and missing from every comparison we have seen: pay a metered ComfortDelGro or Trans-Cab taxi fare by credit card and 10% plus GST is added to it, which on a S$20 meter is more than any platform fee on this page. We compared every licensed ride-hailing app in Singapore on fares, platform fees, the fuel surcharge, card fees, driver commission and coverage.

Challenger has four National Day promo codes sitting on its own voucher page, and they are not equally good — the gap between the best and worst is more than three percentage points. The tiered storewide set is NDP6 ($6.10 off a $100 min. spend), NDP16 ($16.10 off $250) and NDP61 ($61 off $800), all running 3 August 6pm to 17 August 11.59pm on selected products. The one worth planning around is GB61NBX2: $122 off a $1,220 minimum spend on selected PCs and notebooks, which is a flat 10% at the threshold — the only Challenger code this month that hits double digits — and it dies a day earlier, at 11.59pm on 16 August. Two quirks to know before you shop: the discounts are fixed dollar amounts, so the percentage shrinks the more you spend above the minimum, and hitting a threshold matters enormously — a $799 basket gets $16.10 while an $810 basket gets $61. Also worth flagging, because it will confuse people: two of the voucher cards on Challenger's page have mismatched copy, with the NDP61 card headlined '$61 OFF with $800 Min. Spend' but described in the paragraph below as $16.10 off $250.

Your birthday is the one day a year Singapore's F&B chains hand you food for nothing, but almost every one of these needs you to sign up BEFORE the date, and a few need you to have made a purchase months earlier. We went through each brand's own membership page and terms rather than the aggregator round-ups, and the gap between what gets reposted and what the fine print actually says is wide: Suki-Ya's free buffet is real but needs three paying adults and only runs Monday to Thursday; Boost Juice's free drink has no minimum spend but needs at least one point already in your account, and points lapse after six months without a purchase; Starbucks gives Green members a cake slice only if they buy a drink, while Gold members get the drink free too; and Tim Hortons' donut needs 'any purchase' attached. Here are the 10 worth the sign-up, what each one actually costs you to claim, and the exact window you have to claim it in.

NATAS Holidays 2026, the 64th edition of Singapore's largest travel fair, ran Friday 21 to Sunday 23 August 2026 at Singapore Expo Halls 3B, 4 and 5. The hall is closed and every fair offer below has expired, so this page now stands as the verified record of what was actually on the floor: each promo code, price, minimum spend and booth number was taken from the exhibitors' own NATAS flyers on the fair's official promotions page, not from deal-aggregator write-ups. The most valuable sheet at the fair was Traveloka's, which published 18 NATAS-exclusive codes including NATASFLYHIGHSQ for S$200 off a Singapore Airlines flight (min. spend S$2,500) and NATASSTAY for S$25 off any hotel (min. S$350). Five banks took booths and UOB was not one of them: the official exhibitor list carried Maybank (B01), OCBC (B02), DBS (B03), Citibank (B04) and CIMB (B05), and CIMB published the clearest luggage ladder, rising to a Samsonite Black Label Richmond 28-inch on a S$9,000 spend. NATAS has not published 2027 dates; the fair has run twice a year, a spring edition and an August one.

SUSHIRO's newest Singapore outlet opens tomorrow, Friday 21 August 2026, at orchardgateway #B1-07/08, and it arrives with the sharpest opening deal the chain has run this year: a rotating 1-for-1 on six premium plates, one item at a time, from 21 August through 3 September. Bluefin Fatty Tuna is first, two pieces for $4.90++ instead of $9.80++, for three days only. Two things everyone repeating this promo has got wrong or left out. First, the end date: one widely-shared write-up headlines it as running to 4 September, but both of SUSHIRO's own 1-for-1 posters stop at 02 & 03 Sep, so 3 September is the last day and there is nothing on 4 September. Second, and more useful at the table: printed under the '1 FOR 1' headline on both posters is the line 'sushi will be served on the same plate'. This is not a buy-one-get-one voucher you can spread across two orders — it is a fixed two-piece plate at half the two-piece price, and the discount only exists in that form. There is also a third thing nobody has priced: the three opening drinks are all $6.00++, but their usual prices are not the same, and The Premium Malt's at $10.50++ is a 43% cut while the Lemon Sour at $8.00++ is only 25%. And note what this outlet is: SUSHIRO's own locations page now lists Taste Orchard at 160 Orchard Road as Permanently Closed, so orchardgateway is a replacement on the same stretch of road, not an extra one.
