COVID-19 has proven itself a killer, not just to our social lives but our wallets as well.
Thousands have lost their jobs with many more to come, and a Singapore celebrity even has to offer his retirement boat for offshore tours, with himself as a tour guide.
Now, while you can deal without buying 4 cups of bubble tea or six plates of takoyaki on a daily basis, there’s one cost we cannot siam: Daily necessities.
Job or no job, you still got to eat, right?
Well, if you’re feeling stressed out over the lack of zeroes in your bank account and stocks running out in your own home, I’ve got something good for you.
Giant Promises Lower Prices On Daily Essentials
When the COVID-19 pandemic struck, some people have been struggling to make ends meet, so Giant is helping by promising this: Lower prices that last for a long, long time.
Which isn’t surprising, really, considering how Giant is all about giving people in Singapore “the freshest food and all the essentials at fantastic value for you and your family”.
“It’s the little things that make a Giant difference.”
In total, they’re pledging S$17 million to reduce the prices of hundreds of daily essentials in Giant stores across Singapore.
The best part? The products aren’t selected because a Giant staff member loves Maggie Mee.
They actually went out to survey customers on what everyday essentials are important to them before making the decision.

Erm, no.
And It’ll Last For Months
The entire purpose of Giant Singapore with the price reduction is to help people in Singapore tide through the tough times.
And since the tough times is predicted to last for a long time, Giant Singapore is making a similar promise as well.
This particular initiative isn’t just a mere supermarket promotion.
It’s going to be a long-term price reduction, which will be here today, tomorrow, next week, next month, and even longer.
What Can You Expect?
Alright, so “hundreds of everyday favourite products” can be a bit vague.
