From Jan 7, you can start booking your hongbao notes online for CNY (Jan 29 & 30). The MAS announced that DBS, OCBC, and UOB will have their reservation systems up and running for this. Collection starts from Jan 14, so plan early to avoid the rush!
For the ah gongs, ah mas, and those with disabilities, you can just walk in to exchange at the bank branches—no need to fight the online queues.
How much you all planning to budget for hongbaos this year? Things get a little complicated when money gets involved.
I’m thinking $8 notes for the kids i don’t know, maybe $88 for the relatives I like. Parents/Grandparents about $288 😂
What’s your strategy for keeping hongbao affordable? Must peg to inflation or not? Scared kena judge by in laws.
