Although i kind of stopped eating it but just took a look around , the price has risen until quite ridiculous sia

80-90 a box for the hotel ones?

when i was buying them yearly its like 50-55 max a box

not like its healthy or anything also think maybe at most buy a box to eat shiok

but amazed at this price point still got people wanna buy , corporate gifts not counted but for personal consumption

Why buy from hotels? Unless is for gifts.

I have been buying those $5 from ntuc or $8 from fragrance outlets on last day.

Big china also have snowskin, but not many varieties, go early before sold out.

Just go supermarket and neighbourhood bakery buy the normal one. Hotel and restaurant alot of the money is in the packaging and branding, not the mooncake. Not as if the tin can or cardboard with nice design can eat. :s22:
