28bucks for toyota oil fiter

[Iamtheone]

Was planning to service my car after the holiday. Used to purchase the spare at Ubi but since im Tampines area, might as well dropby the stockie located behind tampines safra to purchase oil filter. Was quoted 28buck for a engine oil filter by the worker. When questioned, he mention its due to CNY.

I though only new year goodies $$ soar during this festy season..

No wonder the owner own a new GS350..

oil filter is not bak kwa or abalone leh.

Go to barber cut hair, they also raise their prices for CNY, even if its a Malay barber. What can you do? Don't cut hair lor.

 

When employees hope and expect a CNY bonus (especially this sort of Chinese-style business) where do you think the boss will pull out the extra money from?

 

However, doing it in such an obvious manner loses customers. The boss failed to plan for his CNY bonus expenses over the whole year.
