What?!!

Bought a pack of 6 PAMA Instant Rice Vermicelli on my way back yesterday...to my surpirise it cost RM5.70! Biar betul ni...takajut bah si MamaMia. At first I thought my worn-out spec was playing trick on me. So I took a good, closer look...and yup, no tricks, it really cost RM5.70. Adeii...mahalnya suda pula ni barang!

As I was getting ready to go off yesterday ,out of the blue, mom called to buy a few on my way back. So, I stopped by at this sundry shop to grab a few, quite popular due to its strategic location. Near the bus terminal to the kampungs. Its been a while since I last bought one..lost track of the price already. Last time it cost around RM4.80 -RM5.00 for half a dozen. Now the loose packet is sold at RM0.95 each.... it used to be RM0.80.

Mom's a fan of this particular instant mihun soup. It taste nice...the soup of course :). The mihun itself, taste like ...mihun la. The deliciousness of the soup must be contributed by the high amount of MSG in the seasoning powder. I know its not nutritious at all, some more not good for health. That's why I seldom buy or eat it. If I don't buy them, takut pulak my mum merajuk :p. Anyway, I always told her only to have it once in a while. I only use half of the seasoning powder, of course, its not so tasty but I'll add in some fishballs and tomatoes to improve the taste. Hehe...

On the other hand, I noticed that the goods sold in this particular shop are quite pricey. A few months back, due to the price hike in petrol, the price of goods also increased. But now after the price of petrol had decrease, most probably will decrease again sooner ,the tauke should have reduced the price of goods also. But sad, that didn't happened. Except for the rice, prices of other goods still remained on the high side. How come?!

Sia pun suka juga dis brand of mihun. I think it's around RM4.50 or so here in KL.

Kalau kadai runcit tu memang susah mo turun harga unless they're the hypermarkets la. Sia rasa diorang takut tu harga minyak tiba2 naik lagi.

Almost double tu harga naik.. Well oh well.. everything wayyy tooo pricey now.. Sy pun tia beli megi suda.. Mahal!

tu la bah Nayden, dulu masa d UPM, kalu mo jimat mkn maggi..nasib baik dulu murah...klu nda bertambah-tambah miskin la student..:)

funny, petrol sudah turun harga but they still jual mahal, i did pura-pura inda tau go n ask them why they sell kono mahal, stock lama...where got road like this, hai yah

susah, susah, nobody can bring down the price, not even our government.

wonder what happen if we boycott kadai dorang

mama_mia, sa kasi private suda blog sa nanti ko masuk ja ah, susah mau explain sini, k, take care :)

Go buy the PAMA at Giant la Mama mia. Jauh sikit tapi kurang suda kos minyak kan...heheh. Mana tau sana ada murah sikit. Atau try tingu kadai lain mana tau ada kadai lain yg jual murah. Kalu di jipon kena boikot tu kadai yg jual mahal.... jadi derang nda berani kasi naik harga sembarangan. Bikin panas juga ba tu taukeh yg nda pandai kasi turun harga

tulah sampai sekarang sia blame si Pak lala for increasing the prtrol price last time.
