Some time ago, I found myself writing an article on a landline phone in Sydney, Australia, where someone prised it open to reveal a nestling stack of dead cockroaches. Here’s the article should you wish to read it.
Incidentally, I barfed a little bit in my mouth as I was writing it. But that’s for another time.
Yet, now that I think about it, I shouldn’t have been that grossed out by mere cockroaches. After all, we’re constantly dealing with something arguably worse:
Money notes.
Every day, we’re swapping out our existing bank notes for others, whether it’s for change or just purchase reasons. And really, that gets you thinking;
Where has that money note been, exactly?
What if the guy handing you the money actually picked it up from a drain?
What if that chio bu passing you money didn’t have toilet paper, and actually used that crinkly, dubiously brownish $50 note to wipe her ass?
Yeah, it gets pretty trigger-worthy. And that’s also why POSB’s pop-up ATMs are so welcome. Because for the first time in a long while…
You’re gonna be able to get bank notes that haven’t exchanged hands for like 69,000 times.
Although granted, the new notes are really for all your CNY needs.
Good luck, attached adults; it’s gonna be a hectic few days.
Anyone up for new bank notes for CNY 2019?
From 15 Jan onwards, POSB pop-up ATMs will be stocking up on new and good-as-new bank notes for all your money-using (and hygiene-conscious) perusals. In total, 42 pop-up ATMs will be available for the service.
Lest you’re wondering, here are the locations:
Incidentally, customers will be able to withdraw new notes in sums of
- S$100 (50 x S$2 notes)
- S$300 (30 x S$10 notes)
- S$500 (10 x S$50 notes)
- S$600 (20 x $10 notes and eight x S$50 notes)
This is aimed to reduce the needs for multiple transactions. Machine hoggers we’re looking at youuu.
In total, there will be 42 POSB pop-up ATMS at 20 community clubs islandwide. After each transaction, you’re also entitled to special CNY-themed angpows crafted from environmentally-friendly paper.
Instagram, anybody?
And so… what’re you waiting for?
If you’ve been craving for new notes to slot into those delectable CNY packets, or just want some money notes you can touch with zero consequences, this is the golden opportunity. So get going before the queues start to resemble the snakes from the Snake mobile game!
15 Jan’s the date! Don’t say bojio ah!
Although on a side note, you can actually reserve your CNY notes online. Simply login with your ATM/Debit Card and PIN, to place your reservations!
Take note that reservation’s only until 30 January, and that collection starts on 17 Jan and ends on 1 Feb.
But wait just a second! Before you go, you may wish to check on your fortune for the year 2019 down here.
No guarantee that it will work out exactly how the article tells it, but hey…
It might be worth a read. 🙂
