In a few days, it will be the annual Mid-Autumn Festival. As the saying goes, the moon on the fifteenth day is 16, but this year's moon is fifteen 15. This means that as long as the weather is fine, we can see the big and round moon on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival this year. Mid-Autumn Festival is a particularly important day for us in China, just like our Spring Festival. China is a country that pays attention to reunion. Every holiday, we will sit together as a family, with apples on the table, symbolizing peace and security, and pitaya, symbolizing a prosperous day. For the Mid-Autumn Festival, mooncakes are essential because they represent reunion. Therefore, every Mid-Autumn Festival, many people send moon cakes to relatives, friends and company leaders to express their deep feelings for the Mid-Autumn Festival. At this time of the year, some merchants in various supermarkets will display a large number of moon cakes for sale. Among them, we have heard of some sky-high moon cakes, saying that they are expensive and the profits are violent. In this regard, the National Development and Reform Commission and other departments issued a document to curb sky-high moon cakes, and implemented key supervision on boxed moon cakes whose unit price exceeded that of 500 yuan. Brands of high-priced moon cakes abide by the regulations, but at the same time, they also play some edge balls on the price. For example, Haagen-Dazs launched the Louvre series of Mid-Autumn Festival gift boxes. This gift box surpasses 500 yuan, and the highest price is 999 yuan. In a shopping mall in Beijing, the price of many kinds of moon cakes surpassed that of 500 yuan, even reaching several thousand yuan. In addition, it is understood that you can add a gift box of 2398 yuan to buy moon cakes, and add a box of moon cakes of 498 yuan at most.
Because this year's moon cake gift boxes stipulated by the state can't be mixed, they deliberately removed the moon cakes from the gift boxes and cut them off so that they can buy extra gift boxes. So how violent are the gift boxes of these sky-high moon cakes? After market research, the price of a box of mooncake gift boxes in 600 yuan is actually around 70 yuan. According to this cost, its profit has reached about 8 times of the cost price, which is really high. In this regard, China Consumers Association encourages consumers to actively participate in social supervision, record illegal standards and excessive packaging and adding moon cakes by hand, and report to the local market department Consumers Association.
