There is Chinese New Year promotion in Eu Yan Sang. Check out if you are one of its members. Well, even if you are not a member, it’s worth checking out at any EYS store where the promotion is held. 
The day before yesterday, I received a copy of Eu Yan Sang’s Chinese New Year catalog by post. It’s filled with auspiciously-named hampers and gifts that you can gift your family and friends this CNY.
I like the catalog very much because of the clear price list. You can see the price of every item in each hamper; this helps you decide if you think the hamper is worth buying.
Okay, let’s come back to the promotion. Actually I didn’t know there was a CNY promotion going on before I went there. My plan was to buy a box of American Wild Ginseng Tea (5gm x 24 bags) and a bottle of Ginseng Wine (700ml) for hubby.
A box of American Wild Ginseng Tea’s usual price is RM138 while the Ginseng Wine’s usual price is $72.80.

With slightly more than RM200 in hand, I wanted to buy these two items only initially. See the word ‘initially‘?
After I told the staff that I wanted a box of American Wild Ginseng Tea, she recommended me to take two boxes since there’s a promotion.
2 boxes of American Wild Ginseng Tea cost RM208 only, a savings of RM54.20 if you are a member and RM68 for non-member. Wow, not bad!
If you are a member of Eu Yan Sang, you are entitled to 5% discount. Of course, there is no 5% discount on promotional products during promotion period. 
So the calculation goes like this, RM138 + RM138 – 5% = RM262.20. Now the promotional price is RM208, so the savings is RM54.20.
Of course, there’s also this buy-2-bottle Ginseng Wine deal. It’s RM118 for 2 bottles. A savings of roughly RM20.30.
With only slightly more than RM200 in hand, I had to make a choice, American Wild Ginseng Tea or Ginseng Wine?
Of course the former. Hubby had tried Eu Yan Sang’s American Wild Ginseng Tea more than 10 years ago when he was a tourist guide.
Due to long working hours and insufficient sleep during tours, it’s this particular brand of American Wild Ginseng Tea that helped reduce body heat and increase energy effectively.
Throughout the years, he as tried a few different brand names of American Wild Ginseng Tea, still, Eu Yan Sang’s suits his body best.
Now that hubby is a full time school teacher (again) with long working hours and loads of school load, he needs this amazing tea again to help him stay refreshed and revitalized.
