Dear Editor,
I am a poor widow and mother of five children. I used to pay $160 for a pointer broom now it is $240, white sugar was $80 now it is $90, plantain wholesale $35 on a bunch is now $80, onions was $60 now $80, potatoes 2 lbs for $100 now $90 per lb garlic was $140 per lb now $160. Chicken food starter is being sold at $3,500 in Sandy Babb Street, Kitty. Baby chick $120 at Red Comb. My son’s school in East Street is now demanding I pay $2,000 more on the fee. Blind material at Ravina’s is $328 plus VAT, rat poison at Bounty $300 plus VAT.
Everything is up and my pocket is down. What is the right price for these items.
Yours faithfully,
Mrs Ali
