    1. The newspaper advertisement was an invitation to treat, not a contractual offer, as it did not propose any conditions and the supermarket could alter or withdraw items. For a contract to form, there must be an offer and acceptance between two parties. When Mr. Lim put items in his trolley, this did not form a contract yet as he could still change his selection. A contract is only formed when terms are agreed and payment is made at the cashier. 2. The key difference between a void and voidable contract is that a void contract is made without proper consent, while a voidable contract involves improper inducement of one party's consent. A third party not involved in the original contract cannot sue one

    1. a) No.

    Because under Sec 2(h) of the Contracts Act 1950 :- an agreement enforceable by
    law is a contract but not all agreements are automatically contracts and enforceable by law.
    Therefore to make a contract there must be a person that offer and the person who are going
    to accept. By inserting the advertisement in the newspaper isnt an offer to contract but it can
    be invitation to treat as why because it can simply be an attraction to others but to make the
    real contract there will be certain condition for one people to follow. Under Sec 2(a) of the
    CA:- when one person signifies to another his willingness to do or to abstain from doing
    anything, with a view to obtaining the assent of that other to the act or abstinence, he is said
    to make a proposal .

    b) No, the contract hasnt yet being made between the Smartshop Supermarket and Mr. Lim
    however the act simply are the invitation to offer. Mr.Lim put all the stuff he want into the
    trolley there the Smartshop Supermarket are making the invitation to offer to Mr.Lim and
    Mr.Lim accept it. Then only when Mr. Li went to pay for all the stuff he wanted to the casher
    the offer are being made and when the casher of Smartshop Supermarket accepts Mr. Lims
    offer the contract are exist it is because there is 2 side of people making an agreement. Thus
    when Mr.Lim put the stuff in the trolley there are no contract existed because Mr.Lim can
    simply put back the stuff he did want or taking more.

    2. a) The main different between the void contract and a voidable contract is that the void
    contract are made with other sides consent while the voidable contract are made with the
    others sides consent are so caused. Eventhough the making of both of this contract at first is
    legal but there will be certain cause that make the contact voidable.

    b) Cannot. C cannot sue A when A perform an act of breaching the contract because C is not
    in the contract as C is just a third party. Legally C has no right to sue A as C never sign any
    parts of the contract that A and B made. However if A truly coming a breach C can only
    advise the B party to sue A or simply discharge the contract under Sec 40 of the CA 1950.
