New (and Old) Toys : Take Your Pick

It turns out April isn’t a slouch compared to March Madness, but I guess April Absurdity doesn’t have the same ring to it. This month has seen not one but two banks offering their highest-ever cash gifts. April is also the time for income tax, and we have promos for that as well. Don’t miss also the chance to get some bonus eCapitaVouchers.
Limited time: Highest-ever Cash Gifts
Get the StanChart Smart Card’s generous $300 sign-up off as a new cardholder. After which, you can apply for the Bonus$aver promo for even more sign-up rewards.
HSBC’s massive $350 + $30 promo is also its all-time highest offer.
Citi has also recently revised its gift selections, and you can view them here. You can also see other card deals for April here.
