This supermarket can stop claiming to be a cooperative. Today went downstairs to those old-style traditional 24hr provision shop manned by old auntie and uncle to buy a 50-sachet equal sugar for my coffee. Price was $4.60. Then later during the day went to Fairprice and checked out the price.. it was $5.10. Same thing costs 10.86% more.... What a ripoff...
