the coke guide


Behold! the 20cents coke machine. Bow in awe everybody!
I kid you not, it is 20 cents for one cup of drink.


Located in NUH, funny thing is, why do they sell cheap coke to the doctors when the doctors are earning tons of money, it should be like $1 for a cup there.
Below is my steaming hot cup of Milo. Its supposed to be full, but I obviously drank some up so that it wouldnt spill when i carry it around. Almost burnt my tongue, though...


After the 20 cents experience, I wanted to know how much everybody else were charging. Frist stop, the coke machine outside med library level 2.


80cents for a can of coke. 90cents for green tea.



Second stop, vending machines outside med library level 1.


Cup drinks! But 50 cents each, and its the same size as the one I just got for 20 cents. What a rip off. Do the companies really think that students are richer than doctors?

Still, the one here offers far more choices; milo with ice, horlics hot and cold, orange juice, etc.
So you gotta pay for choice.


Last stop, the new machine outside lab. Qoo is $1 per can. The most expensive drink around. Coke is still 80 cents- kinda like a standard price everywhere.

My conclusion? You can't find your cup of tea anywhere, the freedom to choose will cost you, and Coke is always the frist drink on the machine - scroll back up to spot the 'coke' all over the place, especially at the first spot. Pah, monopoly.
