Sultan Center are now selling heart-shaped watermelons for a ridiculous price of KD99 each. According to Sultan, only 120 pieces of these heart shaped watermelons exist and 40 were sent to Russia, 40 to Japan and 40 made it to Kuwait. I have no idea who would pay KD99 for a watermelon but they seem to think there are 40 people in Kuwait who would.
Thanks Abeer

Because Japan, Russia, and Kuwait have a demand for heart shaped watermelons?
Weirdest thing i’ve seen all year.
Not even for a 5 KD.
waste of money :/
Where was this during Valentine’s Day?! This would sellout in minutes! This is what I call a missed opportunity :/
I believe year on year, the Kuwaiti market also breaks all manner of records with consumption of the Indian Alphonso mangoes.
Wholesale retailers at Crawford Market in Mumbai are literally, laughing their way to the bank with record export sales of the fruit to Kuwait most notably, from merchant families in Kuwait. Anyone who knows their mango well would not dare buying it from TSC or any other retailer in Kuwait. Direct orders from wholesalers in India is the only sure shot way of getting a good deal.
@ Ahmed: the reason why they didnt market the fruit for Valentines’ is eating it would have then be deemed un-Islamic. At least, now you are able to have your heart shaped watermelon and eat it too! 🙂
then, would you mind to hook-us up with an Indian mango dealer ?
And it aint even seedless

You still can have your heart shaped melon for Valentine’s. Many are known to hoard these melons in their deep freezers and the only time you will find them eating it is come February. Pretty neat, no?
Maybe it’s part of an experiment…
Just flip it around and you have a butt-shaped watermelon
hahahahahahahahahaaaa
LOL
i know how to grow such a shape.
And Valentine’s day is no where near!
FYI
How it’s made and not only Heart Shape, look at the website https://www.fruitmould.com/product/heart-shape-watermelon-on-sale
Well I agree people saying this price for mold shaped watermelon is ridiculous.
i guess they will have to bring the other 40 too in kuwait

what if its not sweet….
Exchange
I saw a little girl pick it up and play with it and i was thinking don’t drop it whatever you do don’t drop it.
DO NOT DROP IT LITTLE GIRL!!!!
I heard that it has been seized by ministry of commerce…
I was there a couple of hours back and they were still on display.
Come on! I can cut heart shaped & star shaped melons for only 1 K.D.! :-)))
Just go to the industrial area, pay a carpenter to make the heart-shaped boxes, grow your own watermelons insid ethem and sell them for half the price. It’s that easy! It’s not rocket science!
Somebody Really bought it 🙂 watch the video
