Always Check For Carpark Redemption
If you’re driving out for a grocery run, prioritise malls that offer parking redemptions. Many places will let you redeem your parking for a low minimum spend, so you might as well take advantage of it since you’re going to be spending anyway.
Besides in-store spending, some membership programmes allow you to redeem your parking with membership or rewards points. If you’re currently enrolled in such a programme, don’t forget to check if you can redeem your parking this way.
Don’t Neglect the HDB Free Parking Scheme
If you aren’t aware, HDB’s Free Parking Scheme makes most of its residential car parks free to park in from 7.00am to 10.30pm on Sundays and Public Holidays. This comes in handy not only when you’re out visiting the fam, but also when you can’t find a lot at your favourite mall that weekend — just park at the nearest HDB carpark and walk over.
All free lots are up for grabs, except those reserved for season parking ticket holders — denoted by red or white-and-red markings.
Suss Out Cheap Parking on the Fly with the Carpark Rates App
The good folks at sgcarmart.com have created a mobile app that you can use to look for cheap carparks around you. Aptly named Carpark Rates, the app contains over 700 carpark rates to help you save money on parking.
It also keeps a count of remaining lots at major carparks around Singapore — the better for you to plan your route — and it even provides live streams of traffic conditions around the island.
