I'm so much in love with Chicken Sausage (which we call hot dog here) and always make out time to buy it myself at a grocery store,
For sometimes now, my favourite hasn't been in the store, I tried another brand, it was too salty even madam complained,
Earlier today,
I walked in to the store again, I saw similar product from Chi, oh, Chi,
I was excited to pick it up to at least try that again, since my favourite isn't available,
At the Counter, Chi goes for #600, my fav was #450,
I jokingly asked the Manager who was beside me why,
This is locally made,
The other is imported, simple economics suggest that should be cheaper, with no shipping fees and other extra add ons,
But here we are,
While chasing away one we called CLUELESS,
We got one that is BLANK,
The same way border was closed to force us to eat local rice, but prices sky-rocket after the closure to almost double of the price prior to the news, and the same Government didn't introduce any measure to protect buyer and price,
That same border closure has effected a number of products, which prices of locally made own has gone to the roof and the Government look away leaving buyers helpless to buy what we see/get in the market
