I couldn't find what I was looking for in the mall but in this shop. I thought my shopping experience would be full of frustration because I may have to buy something else. But found almost the same thing that I was looking for. You can guess how successful my market Friday was.
Let me share my experience.
A few days ago, while organizing some of the staff at home I got to notice where we usually put out umbrellas; one was missing, only the cover left there. No need to mention, it was my husband's. When I asked him about it, if he missed it somewhere; he can't even remember. This is nothing new. As the rainy season is approaching so we had to buy another. Also, my son broke the upper portion of his waterpot recently so that's another need. And yes, he also needs a raincoat as this is his first year of school.
So I thought to buy an umbrella, a waterpot, and a raincoat. As I have said, I couldn't find the specific type of product I was looking for. My thought was, if I don't get it in the mall then there's no hope. I have to order them online or go somewhere else and have to pay more.
But fortunately, this shop saved me!
You may be wondering where I got to know about this shop and why not I visited there earlier.
It came to my mind all of a sudden. I went to a nearby street months ago in a tailor shop to stitch my son's school uniform. There I noticed this shop but didn't have time to visit there that time. So, yesterday when I failed to get my products from the mall, this shop came to my mind and I gave a visit there.
This shop is not very large or fancy; it's like 25 x 25 sqft. Also, the place is not on the main road so maybe many don't know about this place. But the amount of product they got in the small space surprised me.
The best thing was their price. They were so reasonable compared to the mall, it was like a value shop.
They mostly got the household products, kitchen accessories, and utensils, kid's products, and different other nitty-gritty items. I got the exact brand and print on the product that I was looking for. An identical umbrella for my husband that he lost before and cute cartoon printed waterpot and raincoat for my son. I was so happy, I found almost everything and bought some extra stuff like a colander, and a big pot to make a large portions of rice when guests come to visit my home.
It was a happy MarketFriday for me.
Have a wonderful weekend ahead, everyone.
