Buy CNY foodstuff early

Hi folks!

 

Have you heard that there'll be price increase next month? Due to the increase of yuan, in conjunction to Chinese New Year, we are asked to buy our stuff early.

 

I read the news in The Star Online here.

 

Example of the foodstuff like Chinese mushrooms, from RM50 per kilogramme now, the price will be increased to RM70 next month. Wow...

 

Not just China products, some of the speciality items for the Lunar New Year imported from other countries had also increased due to cost increase.

Example, for a can of abalone imported from Mexico, the price will increase about RM30 to RM230. A can of abalone from South Africa will increase from RM120 to RM140.

Price of abalone imported from Australia will increase from the current RM70 to RM90 next month, stated in the paper.

Now, will you rush to get your stock replenish? Just yesterday, I was exclaimed to hubby that it's only Christmas, yet I seen stalls selling CNY stuff all around...wow...

And hubby reminded me CNY is just one month away..

Yep, definitely time to stock up some essentials....make a list before we go...don't be overwhelmed and lost in the array of stuff there!

Plan and spend wisely! Reminder to myself :)

 

Cheers!
