Cunning/Blood Sucking Kopitiam trader !!!

Let me ask you a question - How much do you pay for a normal can of 325ml 100 plus? Rm1.50? RM1.80? Well, for sure you will answer me that the price depends on where you get it. It's cheaper at supermarkets or mini markets while it's more expensive when we buy it at petrol stations or coffee shops and restaurants. Of course the most expensive will be when you get it at tourist destinations or road side stalls at those popular visited places.


Fair enough, different places have different prices. But 1 thing I would like to share out is what I've been charged for a can of 100 plus at a coffee shop last Saturday. I was coming back from my usual Sat. hike, and stopped by this coffee shop in Ayer Itam area to meet up with old school friends for breakfast. As I was not planning to eat, I just ordered a can of 100 plus to replenish the fluid I lost during hiking. When the drink arrived, the coffee shop worker told me it's rm2!!!! I straight away blurped out "Huh!" before "forcefully and unwillingly" took out my money and pay for it. This coffee shop is really blood sucking traders!!! It was not even at tourist destinations, just a simple coffee shop. I was up Penang Hill every week and the coffee shops up there only charged rm1.80 per can!!! Ban ban ban! Next time I will only go there and eat the murtabak or roti canai and the most order a simple drink...
