http://i46.tinypic.com/18nloi.gif\">
the price tag was $7.50 on most of these books. so i chose about a dozen of them. but at cashier, the price was $7.60. so pointed out to them that those on shelves were priced $7.50 and left them to sort the issue out among themselves.
it was a mistake on their side (forgot to remove all the price tag before putting them on shelves) so they charged me $7.50 each as per what was displayed on the books and shelves.
this is a common issue in some shops (ntuc, giants, shop n save, cold storages). price on display and price at cashier different. last week at beauty world, same thing happened. price of coffee on offer till end of may was different from price at cashier. junior staff said no offer....showed her the offer display note...called senior. senior saw item and acknowledged item was on offer. so have to do price correction at cashier's till.
anyway, it has been a good day today........ds done most of his holiday homework...except for book review and show n tell.
my itch didnt come knocking on my body today

keke sharkfin soup yummy yummy, the book u bought is good la but if i knew earlier u be buying i will tell u to wait then buy i can get discounted new copies from bras barsah at 6 per copy.
whats for dinner tonight then?? -
Was planning to get just one copy....but itchy fingers. Plan to keep some for reading on board plane...
$6 :shock:
Yeah yummy shark fin soup. The restaurant owner can't afford the rent so closed shop for a period. But persistent calls from regulars got him to set up shop at (I think is in or near market). Rental increment is just too :yikes: to bear.
My brother, sil and sis attended a wedding dinner at Mbs last year. The best dish for the nite was the shark fin soup. There were only 5 people at their table...so everyone had a delicious time...yummy yummy yummy.
Dinner for me tonite is fried bee hoon. My helper can cook but maybe not that great but still better than me :please: . So meals at home, we love it. :rahrah: -
ds love that books la so got him all heng is cheaper over there as regular buying from the uncle le ma.
I am expected to cook dinner because dd will not eat outside food even fast food. but ok la only need cook 1 big pot of soup or sesame chicken -
All those hubbies n children who have wifey/mummsie who can cook are so lucky.
:please:
I can smell your dinner \". :love: -
haha but i won dh thru cooking for him when we were still working at the airport bleah thinking back should not have let him know i can cook.
aiya for me is more like taught to cook since young prenakan has this saying if u cant cook or sew u can never get married. i can cook but can nv sew. -
kekekek, i cant cook but can hook.........very firmly too.
just saw something on asiaone.com on soshiok...........
Most Singaporeans prefer a partner who can cook .SoShiok.com |

Survey by Electrolux covering an equal number of the sexes found that 86 per cent regarded the ability to whip up dishes a desirable quality.
Singapore, May 24, 2012
Who says cooking is unsexy and Ah Soh?
In fact, most Singaporeans find a partner's ability to cook an attractive trait.
A survey by Electrolux covering an equal number of the sexes found that 86 per cent of respondents regarded the ability to whip up dishes a desirable quality.
It also found that 37 per cent of Singaporeans are also more likely to help out in kitchen chores, as compared with 27 per cent in Taiwan, and 31 per cent in Thailand
Healthy cooking is also a main concern among Singaporeans, or 92 per cent of the respondents. One third is careful about the amount of salt and oil used in cooking.
In fact, they emerged tops as the most oil-conscious nation among 10 other countries like China, Australia, Malaysia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, India and the Philippines.
The hectic lifestyles of Singaporeans also impacted on their food habits. Although 84 per cent would like to dine at home, 81 per cent eat out at least once a week - the highest to do so in the region.
So Singaporeans spent the least time on food preparation in Asia Pacific - an average of 82.5 minutes in the kitchen compared with the regional average of 96.4 minutes.
The Electrolux Asia Pacific Food Survey also revealed another surprising finding - 51 per cent of Singaporeans do consume food even after the expiry date, significantly higher than its neighbours. -
OH did not know that but my dh only can cook steak and maggi mee :rotflmao: :rotflmao:
but i told dd she got to learn how to cook because she has prenakan blood in her is a must
