Presumably he means that below $20, the rounding down makes Citi PM better...

True, just need to use it on those verified transactions.

I'm going to take a punt and order it. Wish me luck!

FYI for anyone who cares, Dell Oz normally have discount coupons and plus the GST claimback, it ends up being cheaper than Dell SG.

Dell AU
XPS 13 i5, 8gb mem, 256gb SSD. AUD 1,999 inc GST. I have a 15% promo code (don't have it with me now), so net price is AUD 1,699. take away 10% GST, you get final price of AUD 1544 (about SGD 1600)

Dell SG
XPS 13 i5, 8gb mem, 128gb SSD. SGD 1799. Save $200 (11% savings) and get bigger SSD.
XPS 13 i7, 8gb mem, 256gb SSD. SGD 2099. $500 more expensive but you get an i7 (although I remember reading that this particular i7 isn't that much faster than the i5)

A few weeks back AUD and SGD was almost on parity - then the difference would have been $250 for the first option.


Friend will be going for work, I'm getting a free courier service!

Actually, I just noticed today that Dell AU is having an Inspiron sale (up to AUD 500 off selected model).

Which card should I use for my Uber spend? :
- Altitude
- Privi AMEX
- DBS Womans World

Currently using Privi as I;m unsure if it will register as an "online" transaction for DBS Womans World Card...

Hmmm?

Called in to check if i can apply for Citi Rewards Visa so i get another 120,000 Citi Dollars earning quota. Was told i could do so.

Usually use this card to pay my Singtel bills online (4miles/$1) and shopping (4miles/$1).
