[quote=\"piyobaby\"]It is so difficult to find food in hawker centers which cost less than $3 for a miserable portion! Not to mention every trip to supermarket cost more than $50 and end up wif so few items!
that's cheap. Our supermarket trip is usually > $100
juz the 3 or us, our supermarkets receipts can easily chalk up to $500 ......
fortunately, no need to pay for diapers n baby formula.....
i was rather shocked when i realised how much those baby formula milk cost nowadays.... :shock: -
Yes and the point is spending that amount yet yielding so little items!

Another classic example, steamboat buffet. Used to have those $12/pax and serve quite nice food, now it's like min $18/pax.... -
do you think your salary has increase by so much? so that it can ‘fight’ the increase in prices???
example, inflation rate is 10% semi-yearly, do you think your salary has increase by 10%? if your salary increase by only 5%, do you think you got a decrease or increase in pay?
sorry ah, moi ingrish not powderful, so I dunno how to describe. maybe someone can express better…hee…
