Hypermarkets the venue for bad behaviour


WHILE hypermarkets are providing shoppers with a wide variety of goods, they are also places where the ugly side of Malaysians is displayed.

Just the other day, as my mother was shopping in the grocery area of one hypermarket, she noticed two ladies in their mid-40s unpacking a bag of lady’s fingers. They snapped the tips of each of the lady’s fingers and selected the freshest from the batch. They then placed those they had selected in one bag and shoved the rest into another. Didn’t they know that the price was based on the weight of the vegetables inside the bag?
