Lower your grocery bill with local alternatives to imported products

[Dubious]

chinese products are of all the qualities

agreed...which quality floods our markets and how grand is our purchasing power? The answers to these will give you an idea what is imported!

timatars are just fassad. are they fruit, are they veggie.

you must imagine its allegedly an agriculture country

yet no one is interested in investing in the food sector to not only EARN profits but also to reduce the import burden! Everyone wants a desk job where they have no idea what they are doing and BOOM we are in debts!

Instead of forcing us to buy Pakistani, the Government and Public sector needs to bring up the standard so that we start buying Pakistani products by default rather then to opt for the costly non-Pakistani product.

THIS can only be done if you have a Pakistan and its people 1ST mindset! Otherwise its PROFITS over "others"

awaaam. bholi bhaali si awaam

True that!

Body spray/deodorant: Not needed.

Milk products: Local gawala.

Handwash: Desi soap.

Soap: Desi soap.

Agar reality jaan tay hoay kuch nai ker saktay then dont blame the govt who also knows reality and cant do anything

Body spray/deodorant: Not needed.

At 50 degrees...def needed!

Then again those buying prob dont step out of A/C much!

gawala

what on earth is that?

Handwash: Desi soap.

That thing peels skin! Might as well use mitti

Or go commando.

Hair oil: Chambeli ka tale.

coconut/ olive oil would do!
