Boycott the price jackers!

I love good food and I appreciate those TV shows that tells us where the good food are. But I hate those stall owners that jack up the price just because their stall is heavily popularised by TV.

I was at Ang Mo Kio Central on Friday with a friend and he was ranting about buying the Ang Mo Kio famous curry puff - TIP TOP. It's in a corner of a kopitiam next to Jubilee Entertainment Centre's Pizza Hut.

It was only about 40 cents then! After all these years, the curry puff had slowly jack up the price to 90 cents a piece now. What the hell! A curry puff for 90 cents in a kopitiam?! How much is the cost price of curry puff??!

I refused to pay that kind of money. Besides it's just a piece of curry puff.

So I strongly urge all people to boycott these stores who jack up the price due to the popularity they are gaining. Imagine if we stop patronising, no one will buy any more of your curry puff and you may just close shop, go home and sleep. All because you are exploiting your faithful customers after you gained your popularity due to US!

40 cents was when? Laughing When I first bought tip top curry puffs at amk at the same coffee shop back in 1984, it was 60 cents a piece, not 40 cents ok.

I rather buy OCK at $1. Their Curry puffs looks much bigger than tip-top curry puff.

That's coz lau chang give you more flour than filling. Laughing

I inspected it. The chicken content is more than what tip top gives. Tip tops fillings are a pittance.
