Update, April 16, 2020: The distributor Chip Guan Heng has requested customers to visit the online store instead of opting for ad-hoc direct walk-in purchases due to overwhelming response. Any purchase will require an advance order of three to four working days.
As Singaporeans remain cooped up in their own homes on Day 8 of the month-long Covid-19 circuit breaker period, all thoughts -- permanent and fleeting -- have drifted to eating and eating themselves silly once all of this boils over.
And if Singaporeans cannot go to the food now, have no fear, because the food can always come to you.
Blowing up on social media big time (Facebook link here) is an offer to deliver old-school street hawker ice cream in blocks from Joo Chiat right to your doorstep.
The cost? S$4 per block.
The retailer is Chip Guan Heng, one of Singapore’s oldest ice cream distributors established since 1970, who has turned to Facebook to advertise their supply of ice cream:
Even though the blocks of frozen goodness are clearly labelled, "Only for sale to licensed ice cream hawkers, not for door to door resale", all previous rules governing the economy and how it should operate have gone out the window this Covid-19 pandemic.
Ice cream distributors, after all, also need to eat.
The usual recommended selling price is S$8 -- but that's not a rule, just a suggestion.
To make sure people can stuff their faces, Chip Guan Heng is throwing in free delivery for orders of S$80 and above -- but will deliver with a minimum order of S$50, but that means you have to pay for delivery.
So consolidate those orders now.
They are also having a 50 per cent discount on selected individually packed ice cream:
