I know you’re here and want to know which outlet it is.
Here’s the image I’ve taken:
And here’s the thing: I’m not going to disclose the outlet.
Reader Bao: Simi sai? You clickbaiting us in is it?
No, not really. I just want you to know that this could happen in all outlets if you continue to hoard daily essentials.
Because hoarding is really not cool, and it’s even worse if you hoard and didn’t buy them simply because the queue is too long.
A FairPrice Outlet Has Limited the Purchase of Veg at $50
Now, if you can’t read the words in the image, here’s what’s written:
DAILY ESSENTIALS REMAIN AVAILABLE
Supply of daily essentials remain available despite the sudden surge in demand. We urge customers to buy only what they need and not to stockpile.
The sudden surge in demand has caused a bottleneck in the delivery of supplies to our stores. Stocks are available and we are stepping up additional deliveries from our warehouse to our stores as quickly as we can.
In the interest of all customers, bulk purchase for vegetables (>$50 per customer) will also not be permitted.
We call for calm and seek your patience during this time.
It’s unknown whether the decision is made just by the outlet or the management.
Good. Let this deter the hoarders. I need my pack of potato chips.
Has It Worked in the Outlet?
It’s unknown because the shelves are still empty. However, queues in the outlet has dropped drastically despite the outlet being packed with people.
And here’s a hint: it’s a FairPrice Finest outlet.
FairPrice Calls for Calm
In a new media advisory published just hours ago, NTUC FairPrice has mentioned that they’re ramping up the supply of daily essentials this weekend as they increase the number of products sent from their warehouse by three times and doubled the number of deliveries to their stores.
However, they’ve called for calm as well, and reiterated that there’s no need to stockpile products.
So, to hoarders: if you still intend to start a minimart in your house, consider this a warning.
