In April last year, FairPrice Bedok Central’s durian promotion attracted eager customers who formed long lines outside the supermarket.
Less than a year later, the promotion seems to be back, coinciding with this year’s Chinese New Year festivities.
While there might not be S$0.90 durians on offer this time, baskets containing five to six whole durians are going for just S$10.
