My mother-in-law and I are going to the market to buy vegetables, spices and fruits. It is the place where produce from provinces are being sold so prices are much cheaper compared in the supermarkets.
I wish I could see strawberries because it is pretty expensive in the malls. I would also buy sweet corns and mangosteen if I see some.
But one thing for sure, I will buy a lot of garlic and onions for personal consumption.
How do you like going to the market?

I like going to the wet market, but most of the time I just go to the supermarket so I can get some toiletries, too.

Nope, I am not a market person. I prefer the more convenient groceries and supermarkets.
The fruits you mentioned are definitely expensive these days.

I went to the small market by the gate of our village, as usual by walking. I intended to buy beef to make chili con carne for dinner. There was beef in the stall but the vendor was not there. I shifted my choice to chicken drumstick and broccoli.
