During our stay in Baguio, we went for
a shopping at the Harrison Night Market.
Harrison Night Market is famous for
affordable bagsak presyo ukay or thrift shop in Baguio. They are open starting
9pm onwards. They have lots of 2nd hand ukay clothes, shoes, bags, accesories
and foods! :)
I've been to Harrison night market when
we visited Baguio a few years ago but wasn't really able to shop. Really glad
that I was able to explore and shop at the place. Anyway, on the first round,
we just scanned the place and looked for things we want. On the second round, I
was able to buy a top, blouse and hoodies that I saw from the first round. It
was then during the third round that I was able to buy another hoodie which I
will share a story about it.
My budget for the night market was supposed to be P500 but I spent more
than that.
On my third round, I saw this girl
wearing a really nice hoodie with fur. Then I remembered seeing a nice hoodie
on my 1st round and 2nd round. We went back at the area where I saw a very nice
hoodie and this time I was able to ask the price. The "kuya" vendor
who maybe noticed me looking and checking "that" hoodie a few times
since the 1st round, approached me already. Thinking that the price would be
around Php500, I was shocked to know the price. Here's how the conversation
goes:
Kuya: Kunin mo na yan, ----- branded yan. Wala bumibili nyan
kasi small ung size.
Me: Magkano po?
Kuya: Php1,200
Me: **shocked.. thinking na nasa ukay kami pero bat ang mahal ng
price** Ang sakit ng price kuya.. Kuya: O ito itry mo lang..
Me: **sige try ko lang naman pero baka di ko naman bilhin kasi
sobra mahal**
Kuya: O bagay sayo o..
Me: Ang sakit sa puso kuya.. masyado mahal..
Me: Ang sakit sa puso kuya.. masyado mahal..
Kuya: O sige bigay ko nalang sayo P800
So in the end, I bought it anyway since
it's priced for Php800 already. I'm not sure of the fabric used but it's thick
and I love how soft the fur was. It's also the most expensive item bought in a
thrift shop. But I think it's worth it naman, especially the fur since it's
really big and soft. Just not sure where to use it here in Manila. The fur is a
bit loud for a casual outfit here. Maybe for a shoot? Haha
Here's what I bought:
Blue Top (Php20)
Floral Top (Php80)
Hoodie 1 (Php150)
Hoodie 2 (Php150)
Hoodie 3 (Php800)
Sharing a video about my mini haul from the Harrison Night
Market. Bought lots of hoodies! Haha
Anyway, here are my tips when buying at Harrison Night Market.
1. Scout for the place first before you
buy.
2. Secure your valuables. Expect lots
of people on the place when you shop at thd night market. Even some police
offers are reminding the crowd to secure their valuables and stuffs as there
lots of pick pockets on the place.
3. Bring small bag as you'll experiencing
lots of walking in the place.
Good thing we were able to drop our items first at the transient house before going here. It's really a hassle bringing lots of stuffs while shopping in a crowded place.

4. Better to wait before their closing
time as I believe, prices are way much cheaper.
5. Don't be shy to haggle the items.
Next time I'll already know what to do
the next time I shop at this place. Haha
