Even pals from the M40 group are complaining cost of essential food items are rising so fast.those who are single parents are so frugal especialy when there are 3 or 4 growing up kids who eat non stop.the price of imported jasmine rice from thailand rose 3 x n basmati rice 4x.we buy eggs of 30 a carton and my pal says his household need 2 cartons a week as its cheap n fast.
Im glad EPF release payment on time so i can buy seafood for mooncake festival this friday.local fish like kembong is rm22 a kilo n kurau rm 75 a kilo and medium shrimps rm 60 a kilo.seafood costs a bomb now.even local big head freshwater shrimp is more than rm100 for a kilo.burn a big hole in wallet to buy crabs or shrimps.
I now buy non perishables from rm 2.40 the 2 Eco shop like soap,detergent,tissue or dishwashing liquid.can save a lot.a bag of potatoes cost rm2.40
I buy cooking oil in bags at rm2.50 per bag n a tray of class D eggs at rm 11.90.i bake my bread n cakes n never buy durians,bubba tea or ptemium coffee.
But just wish govt improve public healthcare as its long waiting list.just hope i stay safe and healthy.its cheaper to die than to live with all the modetn medical facilities that can cost a bomb but no guarantee you will live a long good quality life.
