Shopped in Various Stores

It's been 5 months since I last posted here in the Market Friday community. Even if I buy at the market, I only take a few photos. Sometimes I even forget to take picture in my rush to get home right away. I want to share with you my shopping experience at Novo department store and other stores besides wet market. To an average person like me, the necessity will be prioritized over other luxury items, right? I don't want to buy a lot of stuffs because the space of the house will be smaller and won't be able to move around. It is also difficult to clean the house when there are many things inside the house. I got my reward from the ySense survey so I went shopping for other things that I need at home. Apart from the money my partner gave for my shopping. The side hustle that I know is also a big help to me. Do you also have a side hustle besides this?

Here is my shopping experience.
I first went to Robinsons supermaket to buy 4 pieces of shield soap for only 23php per piece, cheap isn't it? I also bought other things but I also wanted to use Wi-fi first for a while because it's free here hehe. Then I went to the Glory Sun store next to it. I mentioned before that I would only take a pedicab or trike to go to the markets. Then just walk to the different stores because they are close by. I bought 21php wipes, 40php dust pan and 52php dishwashing liquid from Glory Sun.

Divimart is closed in our area because of some issue. That's where I can buy 80 x 100 cm garbage bags. So I went to Novo department store and went upstairs. Good thing there is that size available at Novo, it fits in my garbage bin. The one I bought at Glory sun I thought was big, but it was small. Are you using garbage bags or a sack?

I'm also surprised because the sponge that is 10 pieces in a pack of 40php is also available.

I want to buy like this frying pan next time, I'll save up first.

It turns out that Novo has this worth 50php, my partner ordered something like that from Shopee worth 100php. It is placed in the gas stove to save on gasul.

At second floor are garments, ground floor are household items and near the counter are food items.

I think it's like Chinese food items. I didn't ask the saleslady on this.

It's only 12php and with the tomato drawing, I bought it, to try and taste it.

When I finished shopping at Novo, I went to Puregold. Buy 11php champion bar, 38.50php 6 + 1 pack Surf powder, 45php silka soap, 63.25php pantene shampoo, 85php alcohol and 125php close up toothpaste 2 pieces. I also bought jersey milk 43.50php, because I have a coffee mix of mangoosteen and moringga leaves that my mother gave to me. 150php a pack of this coffee mix.

I bought whatta tops because it's my son's favorite mango graham flavor worth 80.50php.

The sunflower seeds worth 23.20php are delicious to chew while watching a movie on Netflix. Do you like this too?

I also bought 8 pieces dutchmill, 12.20php per piece as well as yakult 50php and delight 57php for my kids.

I paid at the counter and went to the wet market to buy fish and vegetables. I also bought a bavarian flavor donut 88php and 4 pieces turon (banana with wrapper) 52php for our snack when I got home.

I took a pedicab and passed by this manual water pump that was broken. I used to be able to wash my feet there when it was raining and it was muddy during my walk. There are a lot of these in the provinces, old water sources.

I said I would take a picture of the stall where I bought fish and vegetables like sweet potato and petchay at the wet market, I also forgot lol. The bag I'm carrying is also heavy. I took pictures when I got home of the fish and veggies that were still in plastic. There are only 4 pieces of fish because my son said he is allergic to fish, maybe because he ate the fish bones before. The vegetable is my addition to the stewed beef. I bought 2 salted eggs too worth 100php.

That's all I bought in the eco bag, I also bought some snacks. We use paper bag packaging except for fish and meat items.

The taste of this snack is okay, it's like dried noodles. My partner was envious so he also bought when he went to Novo yesterday.

I went to a lot of stores, didn't I? That's how I am, I go to every store because there is an item that is not available in other stores. Sometimes the price is different from each store. Walking is good exercise too, they are not far away anyway.

That's all for now. Thank you #MarketFriday initiated by @dswigle.
Happy weekend everyone!
