They say Sheng Sion is cheaper for most things cimpared with NTUC.

Given urgency since ran out of sponge at home i went to Sheng Siong to buy $2.75 for 4 pieces.

Online 10 pieces for 97cts ...9.7cts per piece.

YEP. Looks the same outside only.

My cousin bought stainless steel plates/ trays for this CNY online

Flimsy and thin, becomes croaked and was thrown into her recycle bin at the doorway

I don’t like this type of sponge usually the green part wear off easily drop off.

Bought some from Nitori and highly recommend

So HAPPY to find Daily Use & Throw sponge

Lots of foam when you squish it and can swipe 6-8 bowls at one go!
