Easy lah, buy everything with $10. You will soon get lots of $5, $2 and all the coins.
Not enough $10? Can also go ATM and make $40 withdrawal.
For those TD that stay in Pasir Ris or Tampines.
You can goto Loyang Tua Pek Kong Temple 洛阳大伯公庙,
先上支香,求神明ä¿�佑在虎å�£æ‰¾é¥å�ƒï¼Œå‡ºå…¥å¹³å®‰ï¼Œæœ‰é’±èµšã€‚
Then goto the Coins changing machine next to the Hindu God portion,
to change whatever amount you need for $1 and 50 Cents coins.
Problems is thoes $0.20 , which i thought it's really important nowadays .
Local always want those change back now , not like it was used to be .
Last time $13.80 , keep the change , now hand long long waiting to get that $0.20 .
$0.10 very less usage . . . so i try to find as much as $0.20 i can .
Cos most places , if need to change 80c , u'll get at least one $0.50 and the rest in10c and 20c .
Unless u request : " Auntie , get me all in 20c pls ."
Use to buy mix begie rice at $2.30 , gave them $10 , still will get some $0.70 back , now knn anytime $2.70 , or even $3.30 , some nett $3.50 .
$1 i dun have any problems .
I thought its crazy to suggest to taxi drivers to go to bank and change , who suggested ?

Now i try to ask from paxes when fare amount like $13.20 , ask 20c from them instead .
Ang Mor people different , $13.20 most they will give $14 : " Give me $6 back when paid $20 "
Locala most won't give any extras , so must initiate to ask .
Some auto one good , give 20c . Most must ask .

u are a local also leh , dont condemn your own kind.
when fare is $x.20 - $x.40, always return the small change in 5 cent coins or at least 4~6 pcs of 5 cent coins. normally, if pax actually got that loose change with them, most likely they will give you the coins instead of accepting the 5 cent coins from you.
