Large crowds, long queues, and the sweltering heat – oh, the things we’d brave through in the name of food. We claim to be busy bees 24/7, but give us a bunch of good lobangs to save money, and we’ll drop everything just to make use of them.
If you’re an NTUC Union Member, the list of available food deals just got more extensive. This September, all members can look forward to freebies and heavily-discounted meals that will make your next gastronomic adventure that much sweeter.
Plus, every deal you redeem qualifies you to score prizes like a Samsung Tab and River Safari tickets! Here are some of the deals you can anticipate:
Potatoes are beautiful no matter the form they come in, but nothing beats the classic pack of fries. Fresh-cut fries straight out of the fryer, topped with salt and other condiments? Yum.
From now till 31 Oct 2019, NTUC Union Members can enjoy a 1-for-1 promotion for Jumbo Fries at their Jewel Changi Airport outlet. You and your shopping buddy can bring around one cup each to satiate your hunger for a midday treat.
You can also drop by their new outlets at Clarke Quay Central from 7 Sep 2019, or at 313@Somerset from 16 Sep 2019 to snap up this promotion.

Singaporeans can’t get enough of their bubble teas. To satisfy that perpetual bubble tea craving, R&B will be providing free normal toppings (worth $0.50) with any purchase for all NTUC Union Members. And yes, that includes everything from nata de coco to their home-made pudding.
Singaporeans love their shopping as much as they love their food, and when there are rewards to be earned at the end of a spree? Even better.
Departmental stores are a one-stop shop for all our shopping needs, and BHG is a prime example of one. With big name brands such as DKNY, Pierre Cardin, and Clarks, conduct your splurge fest and members will be able to redeem a free $5 BHG voucher with every $60 nett spend in a single receipt*. You’ll be able to redeem up to 3 vouchers – an added incentive for you to keep shopping.
*Not applicable to purchases of gift vouchers, beauty services, alteration services, cosmetics, fragrances, electrical appliances, and mattresses. Not applicable between 27th-29th Sept, 11th-13th Oct, & 26th-27th Oct.
The privileges don’t just stop at the deals. In fact, members will also get to participate in NTUC Union Membership’s Facebook contest, which might see you winning some cool prizes.
It’s simple to join. All you need to do is to talk about your purchases from any of their ‘NTUC Union Members Deserve More!’ campaign partners and comment why you deserve to win on their Facebook contest post.
