We have a Ang mo supermarket just downstairs if our block so really quite convenient for us.. I notice for snacks and stuff they don’t always stock the same stuff.. maybe depends on which kinds are cheaper from the distributor during a particular period of time.
I realise some of the toiletries sold cheaper at these stores are not the same as those at Watsons.. eg toothpaste, shower ge etc.. -

Yes, looks like the parallel importer re-directed some of those goods to SG. But I assume anything coming into SG via legal channels has already been vetted by HSA or whichever safety agency.
Sometimes you can see thai words on the product, which quite obviously was meant for Thai domestic market and not us. -

Yes, I buy from Venus for toiletries too.
Having parallel importers is all the better for us consumers.
I know friends who shop at Ang Mo for the best prices. Ourselves we buy our toiletries from Venus or similar heartland shops. Much cheaper than FP or Watsons.[/quote] -
When you order vegetables in a restaurant, do verify the costs first, before placed an order :-

Crazy price…can eat 1 mth Kailan at home.

They put gold or diamond in???
Can report to mata for such a case? -
Yes, it’s better to ask the price first. I’m cautious whenever the menu state “seasonal market price”.
… It sounds like the waiter had doubled the portion for the customer so he was charged double for each plate, but the customer had ordered 2 plates of it, instead of a double portion. Misunderstanding… -
Wow… it seems like vegetables are more expensive than animals’ lives.
-
Never mind the kai lan. Did you see the dim sum prices? :faint:
And $5++ per dish of pickles.

It is very simple, if you think the price is too high and not reasonable, then don’t go there to eat. There are others cafe, restaurants and food courts at Vivo City. Some people like to go this kind of atas places and we can have our own choice.
