Pasig palengke



Have you ever been to the palengke of Pasig?

I first heard of it from my officemate and the yaya who uniformly relates how you can get clothes etc at super mura prices. Even cheaper than Divisoria! I have been to the place some months ago but was not able to have the feel of it because we have tagged Neo along and there was no decent parking.

Until late, the girls at the office has been making after- office trips to this market. The days that followed, they have been donning in the office the clothes they have purchased during their trysts. And they were nice pieces, hindi mukang "mumu". The best day to go is Wednesday and Friday nights where the "bagsakan" takes place. There would be blouses as low as 35 pesos or 3 for 100!

Joining the band, we spent our Valentine's morning there. Our palengke take-home are all in these plastic bags.....



Inside the bags were:

1. seven assorted polo for Val at a whooping 65 pesos each!



2. two maong jeans for Val. Nice fit at 250 pesos each.



3. Socks, half dozen 100 pesos lang! "ayos naman" daw sabi ni Val.



4. Kid's jacket - 90 pesos



5. set of pambahay for Neo - 75 pesos



6. scrub shirts at 100 ; mga pambahay for Mommy, 100 pesos each. nice tela naman



7. Patterned curtains at 150 pesos per panel. We recently bought at SM, at 300 plus per panel.



8. cloth bag at 100 pesos



Nothing for me (ay the bag pala), let's see next time.

Price steals are the ladies blouses and shorts. Accordingly, the prices during the Saturday tiangge is marked up already kaya its best to go during the "bagsakan".
