Bread is very expensive...

[Lchlch]

Year | Bread Price | Weight | Price/100g | Wheat Price
---------|-------------|--------|------------|-------------
2022 | S$2.10 | 400g | S$0.525 | ~US$12.00
2023 | S$2.15 | 380g | S$0.566 | ~US$6.20
2024 | S$2.17 | 350g | S$0.620 | ~US$5.40

Price of wheat came down more than half since Ukraine war,
But prices still increase.

Conclusion is once price up, it won't go down.

Yeah, there is no such thing as go down in spore.

Will bread price go down with housing price?

my life has changed 360 degree since a bad bad event happened to me.

You do realise that 360 degree means back to same spot right?

I think maybe you are referring to 180 degree?

My experiences very different.Normally I buy french loaf for 2 sin.But after 2 days ,got fungus growing.Overseas ,got dated clip on bread to show date of manufacture.But local due to undated , humidity,the bread spoils.Do you think the bread Co can be mandatory to have dates of manufacturing clips on every bread for sales.What do you think . Parliament don't bother and too small and monitor lizard still around.

I think it's possible to tag if the bread is packaged, or has a plastic / paper bag over it. To make it mandatory, I don't know.

But those loose bread, they are baked daily so you should assume it is on the day itself.

Considering our humid weather, one should buy and eat the bread immediately or on the following day. Otherwise, keep in fridge and microwave / steam it before eating next time.

Easier to go up, and let ppl get used to it, than to adjust dynamically downwards when prices are low.

Hopefully these sellers when they stand to gain won't increase prices so quickly when times are bad.

Their earnings now should defray the cost spikes occasionally but that is not always the case.

If you sell Hokkien Mee and occasionally the prawns shortage or increase price, will you absorb or will you get 1 grade lower (instead of L size you get M size or S size) to maintain the same margins?

It really depends the drought is only 1-2 days or 1-2 weeks right?

Go polyclinic, cheaper. If you are working your employer should cover your medical expenses? And if retired, no income will have subsidized healthcare too. And those medicine like Panadol flu cough syrup can just buy otc no need see doctor pay for consultation
