At a glance it appears prices stated in this article are a bit inflated. For example, I looked up the price of 1kg of oranges on ZiMart and found that it is $1.10 but in the article above, it is stated as $2.70. 1kg of Rice on ZiMart is only $0.89 but it is stated as $2.10 here which is completely misleading.
Hope that helps
