We all love our babies, but we also know how much they cost to bring up!
As much as we all love shopping for them (and ourselves), we equally love discounts and good deals, don’t we?
In our ideal world, we would be able to earn even as we spend, and hope that at the end of the day all that spending adds up to more than just what’s in our shopping bags.
You know what, there are retail clubs and reward programmes that allow us to do just that! In fact, some of them also give us exclusive access to amazing enrichment classes and fun-filled concerts for our kids as well as the occasional opportunity to pamper ourselves at a spa.
We looked around and found 5 reward programmes that we think you should seriously consider joining.
#1 AptaAdvantage
This lifestyle programme presents you with the AptaAdvantage card – think of it as a personal access card to the best in education, arts, healthcare and wellness development to support you in empowering your bub to be one step ahead!

With the AptaAdvantage card, you get access to discounts on paediatric dental and skin consultations, themed music classes, as well as curated baby products online and experiential parenting megastore, just to name some of the perks!

#2 Warehouse Club by NTUC FairPrice
A first of its kind in Singapore, the Warehouse Club (WHC) by NTUC FairPrice is the ideal place for families to shop in bulk at discounted prices.
A members only retail warehouse, WHC is a dream come true for many mums, especially when it comes to stocking up on all the necessities that a baby needs. The membership costs $50 per annum for the public and $35 for NTUC Union members and entitles you to shop at WHC and save on your grocery and household shopping.
Overall the membership fee is a small price to pay for significant savings that you rack up during the year. Imagine all the special little treats you can enjoy with your kids with the dollars you save!
#3 The MeClub
This fun loyalty programme comes to you courtesy of Mediacorp. Members of the club can earn Star Points while they enjoy being entertained by Mediacorp content on any medium – TV, radio, newspaper or magazines.
These Star Points can then be used to redeem rewards that range from concert tickets to preview passes to shopping vouchers and much more. Membership also allows you to avail of “perks” such as discounts on cab fares, spa treatments and restaurant bills.
Membership is free and you can sign up at MeClub.sg or download the app on your smartphone, however you will need to create a Mediacorp ID to be able to start earning points.
And guess what, if your little ones are over 4 years old, they can have their own ID and earn rewards for themselves! You and your kids can select from your own personalized offerings…get them started early!
