The New Year is here and while we all hope for a better year this year and generally a better decade, bad news hit us even before 2010 dawned on us. For one white bread is no longer a price control item beginning today which means that traders are free to increase prices by whatever amount they deem fit.
As a family which consumes a lot of bread, especially white bread, this isn't good news to us. However, what could we do but to pay? Of course, we could reduce our intake of bread but then that is not a good long term solution either.
In general, prices will continue to go up, not only for white bread but for almost everything and I guess we just have to bear with this trend and try to adjust our budget. Soon, GST will be implemented and that would be an even bigger shock to our pockets. Let's just hope that we could earn even more money to meet this new financial burden.
