' i was planning to buy clothes from this shop cause they had a discount going on, i planned to buy it last friday but it was closed. i then went back on monday and i thought it was gone cause it moved to another location, i realised this fact only on tuesday. i decided to buy on wednesday cause i didnt have cash with me that day but to my disbelief, the shop was closed for the whole week!

i got the contact of the owner thru the weird looking notice pasted on the pushcart and found out that they are closed down and selling online now. i called the owner and she dont seem to understand the words coming out of my mouth, i said are you the owner of the sp pushcart store and she said 'ah? sp post card?' so i smsed her instead but her replies are short and not answering my questions, after spending some time getting info from her, i finally confirmed a timing to meet up and make the purchase i planned. it is 2 weeks apart from the day i planned to buy the clothes to finally be able to purchase it. i am actually quite pissed'

so it seems that even small business like pushcart stores are a victim of the bad economy but it seems that its the consumers that are more affected by it. read more about the effects of the bad economy on downsizing products in our next article at 'oh gosh you is bad economy victim? me then is lah!'
