One of our readers went to shop at Gain Cash and Carry recently and were kind enough to provide us with a list of some of the prices

You would probably have noticed that we haven’t been updating our prices as we often do. This is due to two reasons:

1. It’s very hard to do price surveys when we are supposed to be under lockdown and operating from within a 5km radius. Covid-19 is a really deadly disease and we therefore are following the government’s advice to practice social distancing.
2. There are so many disparities in prices even among shops owned by the same chains. Prices now vary even among OK shops.
