The prices are higher because the products sold at Cold Storage are catered for a different category of people. If priced too low, these clients will not buy..... Big Grin

No lah, most of the stuffs there are the same as what you get from NTUC just that prices are 10-15% higher..

Want to buy Angmoh Brands buy from Marks & Spencer and Jason’s. Want to buy Japanese stuffs can go Don Don Donki, Meiji-ya and Isetan supermarkets for the authentic Japanese products, why must buy from Coldstorage? Huh

Talking about Isetan, have been buying natto from there. Recently the price dropped from $3.00 to $2.90 and the last time I went there dropped further to $2.80. Wonder if that was because the yen weakened a lot against SGD.
Cold Storage is a rojak place, you can find many FairPrice stuff, some Donki & Meidiya stuff, angmoh stuff, quite an interesting rojak place.

Shop at Isetan supermarket once in a while and noticed that for products I bought that are imported from Japan, the prices have remained the same or dropped a little. Therefore have started shopping there more often since the Isetan card gives a 3% discount on top of the stable prices.
