one of the many things that i have to learn here very quickly... is to hunt for the most reasonably priced place to get our groceries... and it has to be nearby too... have been doing a lot of budgeting and comparing of prices...
almost everything here costs more than those back home... the normal bread... cheese... ham... eggs and milk... cost twice the regular price in singapore...
gonna see how much we are able to save by eating at home during the weekdays... only dining out during the weekends... right now... i am planning menu everyday... our lunches and dinners... we are only into our 3rd day... and i am running out of ideas for the menus...
have tried to buy in bulk... cos that's how we do it in singapore... that's how the cost will come down... but over here... i dun seem to be able to do that...
i cant seem to find large packets of frozen chicken wings... meat... so that i can apportion them to be used for one meal... things here are packed nicely into small servings... no one seems to buy in bulk... so i am not sure how much we can save by cooking at home...
cant seem to find oyster sauce... dark soy sauce here too... so have asked dad to send some over... =P
let's see how we fare after one month...
