$100 Wedding Angpow Not Enough Anymore……
There is an article from MyPaper today talking about the inflation has caused local wedding gift to increase as well.
Thank god that for a long time I haven’t been attending any wedding in Singapore. I had a few in Malaysia, and I gave Malaysian rate of cause, keke.
But this is seriously a sign of jialat-ness of life in Singapore man. Think about it, just a dinner, OK a wedding dinner, and $100 gone. That is ridicurious. I can enjoy very good, delicious durians at Geylang, or very good seafoods at some famous seafood restaurants (of cause 1 person lah). Seriously, I feel that I am a little bit anti-social, so I don’t really like attending wedding dinner/lunch/buffet, whatever it is. It is still OK if the couples are my long time friends and I have a whole group of friends attending. But sometimes, I hardly know that couple or we haven’t been contacting each others for a long long time, Then 1 day, the pink bomb is at my door step. This is crap……
By the way, I find “going overseas” is a very good excuse to avoid wedding dinner……
Do you attend wedding dinner often? What is your excuse to avoid then?
S$100 is too expensive lo. Malaysia rate is still ok even in KL.
