Workers' Party chief and Aljunied GRC MP Pritam Singh was shocked by the price of groceries while playing a game of The Price is Right! in a Facebook video posted on Sunday (March 8). In the two-minute long video, Singh stands at a HDB carpark as he is quizzed on the cost of everyday products. The biggest surprises to him were items like a can of luncheon meat, a bottle of soft drink and gula melaka pineapple pastries. Starting off with a bottle of floor cleaner, Singh was pretty accurate with his guess of $4, one cent more than the actual price. He was then handed a 1.5-litre bottle of soft drink which he guessed cost $1. When told it cost $2.10, the 49-year-old gave a suspicious side-eye. He quipped: «I can get it for $1 from somewhere, I'm sure.» His next guess was $2.10 for a can of luncheon meat and his eyes went wide with shock when he found out it cost $6.90. He was even more surprised when he was told that was the sale price, while the original price was $8.90. Read more
