Wing Wah Double Yoke Mooncakes $25

Check the expiry date. Got the MX one for $20 and it expired on Oct 5

2 weeks after and only 50% off? I guess there really aren’t best before dates for these…

I personally like Maxim’s more than Wing Wah.

However, I do not like having any yolks in the moon cake. It's a shame that double yolk is the norm.

Pure lotus for the win

We should have a kind of frugal calendar. We'll celebrate all holidays at a later time at a cheaper price (Frugal Easter, Frugal Valentine, Frugal Halloween, Frugal Christmas, etc.). We can even goes as far as creating companies that work on a different business week (so our Frugal Friday would be when it is cheaper at cinema for example, etc.). More bang for our precious resources. I'll write a book about it. I will put it on sale right from launch of course to appeal to my audience.

Toronto brothers just visit handmade ones at chinatown / spadina

Cue the guy who always tells us if these are good enough to impress the in-laws.

In-laws not impressed by gifts two weeks past the holiday.

If the expiry date is really next year as some reported, then we can buy in advance for next year's Mid Autumn festival

September 29, 2023 - it won't be before that date.

Aunties have been trying to save money for generations and come up with a solution to the mooncake problem. We aren't going to solve it at RFD.

Maybe some people just like to eat mooncakes regardless of the time of year.

I like egg nog and wish that it's sold year round.

Some in-laws might appreciate good deals and are impressed by your deal hunting ability.

should cost $1

Most people here don't want to impress in-laws, in fact, they want them gone.

It's not. It's Nov 11 this year.

Got the last two boxes on the shelf to give it a try.

You can buy these for next year, just need to scrape off the best before date.

And then when they check for the date, they see that it's scraped off. And when they eat it, at best it will just taste stale and not have mold and/make them sick with food poisoning.

Good plan for those who want to intentionally do this to their in-laws or want to be divorced, bad plan for those who don't.
