Those of you who frequent NTUC FairPrice outlets for all your daily grocery needs, rejoice — you can now look forward to savings made on many of your essentials.
On Monday (18 Mar), the supermarket chain announced that they’ll be cutting up to 30% of prices for about 50 housebrand products. They’ll also be keeping the prices of a total of 100 such products fixed.
These are part of an initiative to help Singaporeans reduce the cost of living.
In case you thought NTUC’s housebrands only included those with the name “FairPrice”, here’s a list of their housebrand names:
About 50 housebrand essentials, including baby diapers, biscuits and rice, will see prices cut by up to 30%. These products, together with another 50, will have their prices unchanged till 30 June 2020.
A full list of the items can be found here.
Singaporeans aged between 59 and 69 who belong to the Merdeka Generation can look forward to 3% discounts on Wednesdays starting Monday (1 Jul).
This new initiative is named as Merdeka Wednesday, joining the ranks of Pioneer Mondays and Senior Citizen Tuesdays.
Currently, the Pioneer Generation gets 3% discount on Mondays, while senior citizens get 2% discount on Tuesdays.
Over the years, NTUC FairPrice has become synonymous with our daily grocery needs and basic necessities.
Given Singapore’s rising cost of living, we are heartened that NTUC has made the move to keep our daily essentials affordable.
