EW: Still a good day
For half an hour, I just hanged around a certain stall in the marketplace. Why? Because I discovered that the price of the vegetables and fruits were dropping every other minute! Perhaps, the seller wanted to close her shop early since it was just another 3 hours before they close for the day. Or perhaps, she didn't want to keep the vegetables and fruits on Sunday as it is their holiday. Whatever her reason, it was really fun for me to watch her shouting at the top of her voice "Any bowl for GBP1" which soon changed to "Any bowl for 50 pence!" I had been eyeing some American strawberry which was selling for GBP1 per package. In the end, I got it for the same price but with additional bananas. I also bought a set of asparagus and potatoes for 50 pence. Mind you, I wasn't the only one. My friend wanted to buy some bananas but before she can grabbed a basket, the other more experienced ladies had laid their hands on every 50 pence basket of bananas they could find. It was just crazy. The crowd shadowed the seller to wherever she go as she shouted out the next best offer. I think this is my most fun shopping experience by far...though I don't actually need more vegetables.
