All about Mangoes
-
My mother-in-law told that in Chong Bang market (Yishun) was selling at $3 for 3 mangoes! Very sweet and really value for money. Yesterday I was at Nex and saw a fruit vendor selling 3 mangoes for $2. But never buy as not sure will it be sweet or not?

I managed to get the mangoes from Finest this afternoon. :dancing: :dancing:
The mangoes were so fresh and looked really good (not dried, overripe or \"wrinkled\") and within 3 minutes, I managed to pick 5 bags of mangoes. I was spoilt for choice and could have bought more if DD hadn't stopped me.
Such a steal. Went to counter, gave $10 and still got back 5 cents. Can you imagine 15 mangoes for $9.95

Ya I was surprised too! Was expecting those mangoes to be overriped and shrivelled, since the promotion was already on for so many days... but it turned out otherwise! After I paid for the mangoes, I saw the lady replenish with more stock and very nice ones too.

LKVM:
wow thats really a good steal maybe u could have bought more and have tried the mango jam

:imanisland: Hello LKVM... Wow, I wonder how many mangoes I will need to make jam. Do you have any idea? -
I made dh buy 12 mangos from NTUC at a go.
They were in a variation of yellows to greens, because he wisely thought that we won't be finishing all 12 mangos at one sitting. The greener mangoes are all lined up prettily on my washing machine, while the ripe yellow ones are waiting in the crisper for dinnertime!

Ya, I was surprised too when I saw them again yesterday and that was why I decided on spot that I just had to get another 18 more!

See, what did I tell you? :cheeky: Too late to regret unless you want to make another trip to get some more while the promotion is still on?
Alternatively, you can come down to NTUC @ NEX where it is open for 24 hours! :siam: And maybe we can meet for supper? Real supper, not E-supper! :lol: :lol:
