Hawker center and coffee shop drinks are the most terrible. cost per kopi o is like 10 cents. A can of drink is about 40cents at most. Of course they are comparing with Starbuck where people happily spend $6 or more. I have been charged $1.80 and $2 for a can of drink in coffee shop. The margin is so much higher than the mee or rice stall with almost no preparation works at all.
