Mustafa vs NTUC FairPrice – Who saves you more on food and household items?

30 Jan, 2015
 

 

If we were to tell you that Mustafa isn’t the absolute cheapest place around, you wouldn't believe us - would you? After all, it is widely believed that nobody is cheaper than Mustafa!

We at MoneySmart were very curious about whether Mustafa really was cheaper than NTUC FairPrice - so we sent one of the guys down to compare items carried by both retailers, just to see if the legend of Mustafa’s overwhelming cheapness is indeed true.

Final Note

Final Note

Turns out, NTUC FairPrice puts up a pretty good fight against Mustafa when it comes to prices on food and household items. But if we had to declare a "winner," we’d mark it as a draw based on what we saw on our shopping trip.

However, you can still end up saving money no matter where you shop if you pay for your groceries and household items with the right credit card. If your credit card(s) don’t offer money-saving cashback benefits or rewards, no problem – just click here to choose from the best credit cards out there.
