7th Month Offering

What have you bought / cook this year for the 7th Month praying? Compared to last year, it's more this year or last?

For my family, the items remain the same, but the quantity has decreased. Things now is not as cheap as it used to be. Although GST has increased 2%, but the acture street increase is more than 2%. For example, a cup of Sweet Talk cost $1, with the GST increase it should be $1.02, but it's going at $1.20. A 20% increase. The vegetarian instance mee which we usually bought at $2.40 now $2.70, a 12.5% increase...

Went afew Zhong Yuan dinner, notices their "Tong" had also down sized. But getai is getting better & better :)
