      even the cost of instant coffee (eg. nescafe) has gone up from $3.90 to $6.20 within 2 years. plus everything i stock up milk powder (i usually clear the shelves when they either having buy 1 free 1 or exchange empty tin promos), i notice they’d change packaging with a 20-30% price hike few months later. when will i get a 20% pay hike within few years? Dan Gu Gu.

            Same goes for milk powder. shrunk in size, but the price tag increases. Each time there is an offer, I quake becos it only means they will increase price after the offer period (if they haven't done so already). Lucky I don't have babies anymore. whew!

              the rate of inflation is escalating upwards, is scary!


              besides makan, MRT fare, pump petrol & childcare centre education costs also up.

                      yes, now need to look at the nett wt of items bot,
                      while price may maintain the same, the nett wt has reduced.
