Promo Yop & Orange!

3 November 2008 15 Comments

Elo everyone…

Just a quick post about the promo of Yop and Orange…

Change 1 Bouchon Yop pou Rs2 Credit Orange

Since the start of the promo, I have collected some 25-30 bouchons (bottle caps) and I will soon exchange them for Orange Mobile Credit…

Btw, before the promo, I usually bought a Yop at around Rs17-18 daily, but then I discovered that in hypermarkets, the same Yop are sold for Rs11-13!

If you buy a yop at Rs12, and then substract the Rs2 for the Orange Credit, that makes you Only Rs10 for a Yop! & I think its even more healthier to drink a yop daily than a Coca or Pepsi…

That makes enormous savings!!!
Yesterday, I updated my stock of Yop at Super U Grand Baie, Rs 11.95 each….

Anyone collecting the caps too? :-)

    Kind suck… that they increased the price by Rs. 2… (in retail) & then sell it…. :S

    So technically, it’s not a promo… but daylight theft! :( (Coz very few people will even bother to go to an Apple shop to exchange those hub caps…)

    PS. Yop is made from Chinese milk. :P

    Dear Yashvin

    with regards to paying a Yop @ Rs17-18 in retail outlets is based on the facts that retailers do not respect the RRP – RECOMMENDED RETAIL PRICE – settled by the Industry. This is the same reality for Coca-Cola beverages and all other soft drinks. Just try this out: Buy a Coke at the Beach, you will pay it around Rs23 or even more, and buy the same coke in any hypermarket, and you compare the price.

    Retailers are simply not respecting the RRP settled. and We, consumers are the losers in all this.

    Kind Regards

    @Yumn Zaynah: Hi… You have raised a nice point here which puts into question the following:

    “Isnt there any authorities which regulate those prices? And do they do their job well?”

    ;)

    @Yashvin
    That’s what I meant…. the RRP for Yop is Rs 14.90, while the gross price should be around Rs 12.
    & the retailers sell it for Rs 18. It’s plain theft! Making 50% profit? :(

    So what’s the CPU doing?

    As you’ve mentioned RRP is the Recommended Price. Which guides the public of the price that these products are expected to be sold. Now if you buy stuffs above the RPP then dear friends you are the one who wanted to pay more for things that can be available at cheaper rates at other outlets as mind you RRP is by no means a fixed price set by the authorities. But recommended by the manufacturer to be sold @ RRP. So there no legal actions which can be taken as they are not fixed.

    In other countries there are the MRP (Maximum Retail Price) where the authorities enforce such laws and anyone not abiding to such can be jailed/fine. We do have such stuff which are fixed by the Authorities (Petrol and other some consumables de premiere nécéssité which are fixed by the authorities).

    I’ve heard some of you mentioning Milk from China. Well this is a topic that we could talk for hours long. One thing that I would like to mention is : Humans are mammals. And all mammal when born are fed by there mother on milk till a certain age where they consume things other than milk. Nature did things its way that the mother stops producing milk after some time. Then why do we human who are mammals drink milk till we die. ;) And we are the only mammal who does so :p

    @ mind you RRP is by no means a fixed price set by the authorities. But recommended by the manufacturer to be sold @ RRP. So there no legal actions which can be taken as they are not fixed.

    Hmm this leaves possibilities for “blanchiment d’argent”, suppose i sell drugs, and i own a shop, say you want to buy Rs.1000 worth of drugs, to legalize the transaction, on my prices, i set yop’s price at Rs.1000, this way, buy your drugs, get a yop :p or buy your yop and get some drugs…. the authorities should think about this well …

    Then why do we human who are mammals drink milk till we die. ;) And we are the only mammal who does so :p

    Good thinking :p….
    maybe its because its link to the fact that we are i believe the only species that enjoys sex without absolutely feeling the need to procreate… hmmm… koique i believe bitches also enjoys it without the need to procreate :p
