CDC vouchers cannot be used to purchase items like alcohol, cigarettes & more
If you're a typical Singaporean household, you may have already collected your S$500 worth of Community Development Council (CDC) vouchers.
These have been available for collection since Jan. 3, 2024.
Out of that entitlement, S$250 in vouchers can be spent at participating heartland merchants and hawkers, while the other S$250 worth of vouchers can be used at participating supermarkets.
Do take note, though, that not everything can be redeemed using CDC vouchers.
According to an FAQ on the official website, you can't use the vouchers to buy lottery products, diesel, petrol, alcohol or cigarettes.

The first tranche of support benefited up to 1.3 million Singaporean households, who received S$100 in CDC vouchers each.
