Inflations

Government had announced that they are raising the forecast for inflations rates to 3-5.5%..yesh i'm so gald u all noe...but y is my salary not raised to curb the inflations??

I am already feeling the heat of the increased prices lo..not the "wants" but "needs" 2 examples that happen within these 2 days are...

Yest, while queuing up to buy the famous ang ku kueh at AV, I noticed that there is a notice telling us that frm 1st March onwards, all kuehs there will raised by 10cents lo..yesh, 10cents is not alot but then if u r like me, every time i buy, i will buy 10 at 1 go..n that, would cost an extra dollar...After 10 buys, it would be equivalent to 1 free box..so there u go...inflations at its best...

the other instance is, this morning while going for breakfast, i notice that my kopi-c will be charged 10cents more again frm 1st march onwards...n now a cup of kopi-o will be 90cents..i was shocked lo..it used to cost 60cents 2 yrs bak leh...n my pay had nt increased so significantly over the past 2yrs!!!

I was rooted to the ground for a while, while checking out the prices..n the coffee stall auntie told me tat every drink will go up by 10cents..damn it, i need to drink at every breakfast de lo..

I guess my plans to stay off shopping will need to be stretch 2 mths more..whahah to offset the extra monies i am paying for the rising food prices...Am wondering how long more i can control as I am beri tempted to go shopping, especially after last nite's outing with my sisters..it reminded me tat i had stopped going shopping for the past 1 mth...
