Lulu hyper priced Market..
I bought a round brush for 6 QARs last week. I wanted to buy two, but thought after trying one, would go back and buy one more.
Yesterday I went back and found exactly the same brush priced double straight away to 12 QARs.
Why does this happen?..Am I am encouraged to hoard stuff I need, in case the price become double, next week.. :-(
Stealth, but I DO use every single item!
See, the thing is, shops seem to run out of stock rather frequently, and it takes them a long time to replace that stock...for various reasons.
So, I have the things I most frequently use "in stock" myself!
buy them, dont use them for 5 years and then throw them out for wasting valuable space. Who gains in the end? The manufacturer and the seller.
Fathimah, same here! I have a whole storage cabinet full of my fave items!
and yes I have developed a habbit of hording stuff I like now. Never know when they'll either go MIA or the prices shoot up!
So it was not the same brush but exacty the same brush...that should be the reason..one made in china other made somewhere else...:)
Elegance- you can buy on other shops, it might be cheaper.. like ansar?, safari? or carrefour?
I opted not to buy and be careful with what I have. :-(
Did you buy the 2nd brush.:)
Is anything cheap in Qatar?
its against the forum rules to hijack a thread :)
ever gonna stop bickering?
you have too much rant to vent!
Flor, are you mom and dad brother and sister?
you just strengthened the point.

Cashiers -- Filipinas
So, LULU is inter-racial....
to which nationality Lulu is famous for and connecting it to the comment of the GOOD guy, you'll understand it.
Anyway, what do you expect from this guy? The thread is about pricing and he'll start talking about smell?
It's flor's known way to stir up dirt on any thread.
Here is a summary about Flor's replies:
"If you don't like it here, leave"
"If you don't agree with me, you are racist"
"I like men"
Where did nationality come in??
Yeah I am referring to certain people who shower less often than fruits do..
Those who would rather Not miss one thread on QL than take a shower.. ooops.. did I insult you Flor? I didn't mean to.. I am sorry
and you are very familiar with the smell, I wonder why? Any particular nationality you are referring?
Lulu is not cheap..
It is pure rubbish and the whole place smells like a sweaty underwear that was used to wipe a sweaty armpit
It does Heinz soup!!!
why do you need two?!?
strategy? Lol!
it is just because LULU make it half pay back permotion todays so they make some items prices double so you are purchaing that will get back half but orignally paying the exect price of the product with their profit.its a markeeting techonology.
Is that a fact or myth?
just buy for the grocery shop next door. That should save you on the petrol as well.
They are looking for you to collect the balance 6 QR ;)
Every weekend some of the products are on promotion sale
2 round brushes are never essential in a household.
Are you not causing traffic rush near markets just to do a research on round brushes ?
Carrefour is expensive, and the quality of fruits and vegetables is poor. In Lulu, there is a biggest variety of items,, The best way would be to compare each prices of items we are buying,, some might be cheaper here and more expensive there and vice versa.
common OP it's only 12 qrs, aint that much, you need it anyway
IT'S HAPPENING ALWAYS.WEN THE FAMILY CAN'T GETTING MORE RELAXATION HERE IN QATAR.SO THEY RUSHED TO LULU AND TAKING MORE AND MORE ITEMS,WITHOUT CHECKING PRICE....MAY BE TOMARROW THEY WILL GETTING A BMW OR BENZ.....KEEP THE BILL AND NEXT TIME PURCHASE FROM OTHERS...THEN ONLY U KNOW ABT MORE
I have absolutely NO idea about why people think Lulu is cheap, CARREFORE is, NOT Lulu
Perhaps when you bought the first one, it was on sale...
are u sure that it is the same, or maybe the price tag was for some other product.
anyway generally we have an impression that lulu price is the cheapest among all hypermarkets in doha, but it is not true, i tried to trace the price of some products including vegetables and fruits and found that lulu is not the cheapest
