40% is applied on base only not tax portion.

Do we have to pay in eB for flights to be discounted?

I have a query about the rule regarding ATM withdrawals. I see from previous posts that those who have done a cardless cash withdrawal have lost out on those points this month, however does anyone know if an ewallet payment to someone would also affect this rule? Someone is asking if I can transfer to them using ewallet so that they can withdraw from ATM, instead of doing an EFT, but I am worried it will affect my points for next month.

eWallet should be fine.

eWallets don't count as withdrawals.

Its hit and miss, safer to assume no. I would highly recommend doing your research on that mixer the kettle versions were horrific so check the mixer ones.

I bake a lot of sourdough bread and was keen on getting one, not so sure at the moment, but do your own reviews.

To answer your question, no it won't. But unless you have a very specific reason for the petro card, trash out and just use your credit card

Well my credit card is in my wallet which is normally in my laptop bag stored in the boot.
This Petro card is always in the cupholder of my car and more accessible

Any other benefits of using the CC over the Petro Card?

Tap and go with phone

Ah! smart.

So that will count towards my card spend as I see that using the Petro card (tolls etc) does not count towards cc spend

No, you can pay in rands as well

I wish the eBucks store would start stocking KitchenAid. It's in a totally different class. That Smeg mixer is still a great deal, even before discount.

Bought the Smeg Espresso maker on discount a while ago and very happy with it.

@Sinbad Do engen garages have tap and pay machines? I was always under the impression the card HAD to be inserted into the card machine!

They were the first merchants to get NFC enabled machines. They don't always let you tap in the forecourt though. And remember, you can't tap for more than R300 I think.

The SO has the Kenwood Chef, but the KitchenAid and Smeg looks so much better.

Pretty sure you can, you just need to enter your pin then.
