Obstacle 2- Inflation Rate & Great Singapore Tax
Does it ever occur to you that inflation rate and GST will affect the banquet rates? It doesn't hit me so hard till recently when I started to look for wedding packages.
Personally, i think is Mad! Why are banquets so expensive nowadays?
Sad :( It seemed almost impossible to book "THE Ballroom"... :(
So how much do you normally give as ang bao amount?
A) $0 - You must have hated the couple who invited you a lot....
B) $60 - The poor couple would most probably in great debt if they have a lot of friends like you...
C) $80 - Depending on the hotel chosen, some couples would have survived with this, or some could be bleeding in silent.
D) $100 - Nice Figure. It should cover most of the hotels base cost
E) $120 - Most of the couples would thank you for your contribution in their fund raising event to make up the losses incurred.
Haiz.. In general, don't underestimate the banquets cost. Do your dear friends a favour. lallalaaalala. mumble mumble..
