Always I compare prices between Caring and Big Pharmacy. Some items the Caring is cheaper, others the Big Pharmacy is cheaper.

Damn.

Ya, last time lose to AA, then starting few years back, suddenly very aggressive, rebrand itself, change logo, and opening new stores like mushroom...

Not sure what happened, probably major revamp of their management team.

Caring and BIG are literally side by side in Taman Megah. Wonder if they'll close one down.

no need compete, just bought it off and monopolized the market.

Caring is the cheapest pharmacy. Hopefully the new owner wont increase price.

Wait... caring phamarcy is under 7e???? How come 7e inventory is expensive, but caring is cheap?

Hope after Big acquired Caring, the price can still be cheap, i love caring when many of their normal price item is cheaper than competitors' promotion price

Convenient store like 7-11 sure sell at higher margin.

When caring first opened, my prescriptions I found had a big difference in price compared to if I beli at Watsons or guardian. Things were affordable back then.

BIG is gearing up against Alpro it seems.
