Ramadan, the holiest month of the year for Muslims, is also otherwise known as the time when people find discounts in shops and establishments. Many get excited about the sales among car dealers, store sellers, hotel restaurants and restaurants offering iftars and suhours, fitness and wellness centers, and even Qatar Airways which
gives up to 35 percent deduction in their all-inclusive economy flights until tomorrow, (May 31st).
You can also expect the costs of 509 of food and non-food items in all grocery stores and supermarkets reduced as per Ministry of Economy and Commerce’s (MEC’s) instructions until the end of Ramadan which is June 14th. This affects poultry products, rice, milk, flour, sugar, and cooking oil.
According to the Peninsula, examples include Baladna cow milk which is now 6 riyals for 1 liter, Al Waha’s 1 kg of fresh chicken which costs QR 15.25, a kilo of Sadia frozen chicken (cheaper) at Q12.50, and 5 kg of Punjab Garden rice at QR 26.75 among others. The source added that the MEC is moved by its commitment to reach out to citizens who have to spend for the biggest part of the whole household budget during Ramadan, that is, on the food products.
Here at Allandabout, we’d like to help you get the most out of the discounts offered. So head over to our partners to make the best of the season:
