I wanted to buy an expensive coffee machine and Amazon sg offers 15% discount on top of prime day discount if I use JCB card .

I realised there is no jcb card here and I complained to Amazon and at the same time I cancelled my prime membership

Even the younger Japs don't use JCB anymore. They use Paypay, a joint venture between Softbank, Yahoo and LINE.

Amazon sg really insulting local sg customers by offering big discount to jcb card holders. However there is no business organisation which issue jcb cards in Singapore.
I don’t know who is their marketing SVP.

I called their hotline yesterday and after that I cancelled my membership

I use this:

To use La Pavoni, I must have a nice house and nice kitchen first. Otherwise, it's like parking a Maserati outside HDB 4-room flat.

Auntie in Jurong East does not need branded and expensive stuff to boost her ego.

She has loads of self-confidence that she acquired through moral discipline and philanthropy.

We should learn from her.

I think it is not easy to maintain a coffee machine. Not easy to descale

It's not the descaling. If you use a super automatic where the coffee waste is retained inside the machine, there will be areas that your brush will never reach. At some point, you will have to dismantle everything. With plastic, you need to be careful as parts can break easily. If you use a semi-automatic, the coffee powder and coffee waste is in the basket, and they are all outside the machine. You just need to make sure the boiler inside delivers consistent temperature throughout.

In that case, La Pavoni is better ?
