Where Can You Use SG60 Vouchers?

| Supermarket | Major supermarket chains across Singapore | Yellow supermarket decal |

Places Where Vouchers Stretch Further
Some of the best value usually comes from heartland businesses.
Food & Hawkers
Think laksa stalls, char kway teow, rojak, nasi lemak — where S$5–S$8 still gets you a solid meal.
Daily Needs
Neighbourhood provision shops, wet market stalls, and old-school bakeries often give better value than malls.
Useful Services
Haircuts, key duplication, shoe repairs — practical things people forget vouchers can be used for.
Every dollar spent here supports small business owners directly.
Smart Ways to Maximise Your SG60 Vouchers
1. Use the “Need, Save, Share” Rule
| Category | Purpose | Examples |
|---|---|---|
| Need (60%) | Essentials | Groceries, toiletries, meals |
| Save (30%) | Stock up | Rice, canned food, household items |
| Share (10%) | Help others | Treats for neighbours, elderly stalls |
Simple, balanced, no stress.
2. Combine with Supermarket Promotions
Use vouchers during:
- House-brand discounts
- Buy-1-get-1 deals
- End-of-month markdowns
Same voucher, more value.
3. Build a Small Emergency Stock
Things you’ll definitely use eventually:
- First-aid items
- Batteries
- Toiletries
- Long-lasting food
No waste, no rush.
4. Support Elderly-Run Shops
These shops benefit the most from voucher spending. Even small purchases help keep them going.
5. Try a “Zero Cash Week”
For one week:
- Use vouchers only for meals and groceries
- Plan meals ahead
- Cook simply
Most families are surprised by how much cash they save.
6. Buy to Gift
Practical gifts go a long way:
- Rice, oil, dry goods
- Hygiene packs
- Snacks for neighbours
Small gestures, real impact.
