What Goes Up Must Come Down!

.
Giant has done it! Yipee :D

No, no, I'm not talking about a huge monster but Giant Hypermarket. I love it when shops reduce their prices, not just one item but 1,200 items. And this morning when I read papers, I was pleasantly surprised cos Tesco has reduced 60 items of 'everyday food' as well. That is at least some good news for me this morning :D

Now I'm waiting for Mydin and Carrefour to follow suit, and they're expected to do just that next week. Shopping will be pleasurable again, I hope I don't need to bring my calculator anymore cos I've really been watching my expenses down to the last cent! And I hope this time the prices stay down for much longer.

On another note, I'm pissed that food operators are not reducing their food price. Well, good news for me cos I can cook and I won't be patronizing these food shops with exorbitant price. Let's do our part and shun these unscrupulous traders, like Nick mentioned in his post. Just eat home cooked food :D

OK, now that I've got that off my chest, I really need to find out what reverse phone lookup canada really is. Sounds pretty interesting ya. Have a lovely Friday everyone, I know I will be looking forward to shopping this weekend! :D

  13. Marzie ~ Reali? Aww, that's too bad ya :( So far I haven't had any unpleasant experience at Tesco.

    Giant is decent, I like the one near Shah Alam stadium, very clean macam Jusco! :D

  14. Sweet Girlicious ~ Oh, me too! :) How I wish I could shop without checking the price tags all the time.

  15. Marzie ~ You should go on a weekday to Mydin, less crowds. I've compared my shopping with other hypermarkets and Mydin has the lowest price. But they're not very upscale though. Their food court is clean too :)

  16. Crystal ~ Oh, I didn't know there's no Giant in Sarawak! I guess it won't be too long before they open one kan :)

    I love Watson too :) I buy most of my personal stuff there. The best is their X'mas sale.
