I went shopping.......

...during lunch break. I went to another market called Metro. It is situated 5 minutes away by walking from our apartment (10minutes for you, because your leg "spoilt" already :p).

Wonderland! To my surprise, the Metro is much more "posh" than Ragab and Sons that I used to frequent.

Ragab and Sons supermarket = Small size Sheng Shiong Supermarket in Singapore. Cheaper, more crowded, less organised.

Metro = NTUC Fareprice. More organised, cleaner, has more recognised brand but generally more expensive.

As you can see from the receipt, the things here are not really cheap. The American apple cost me 11.91LE for 3 apples nia. Almost every fruits here in sold in kg....this apple is at 18.90LE/kg.

Mamee instant noodle is 2.45LE/pack (not 5 packs like in Singapore), damn expensive lor.

Chicken luncheon meat (sorry, still can't find pork one) 2 different brand at 10.95LE and 11.75LE.

The air freshener I bought is for your wardrob..(spelling problem lah, but I don't care)

On my waty to Metro, I saw this...accident!!!!!??? No lah, this is a normay way for Egyptian to park their car: They like to kiss the backside of the car infront of them....actually reminds me of what Rocky do sometime.

Egyptians are one of the worst (if not the worst) driver here. My Egyptian friend told me: "If you see no accident anyday, something is wrong!"
