Since the big Asian market closed the other year, buying fruits that we used to enjoy in the Philippines is extremely rare. Mangosteen last week was $2.99 per piece. That's about Php139.52 each (based on Php46.66 conversion per dollar). I wished it was $0.29. I asked the sales associate, and he said that it's $2.99.
I just noticed that all tropical fruits are sold for $2.99 a piece. Even the Asian pear, but it wasn't available last week.
Ugh! I really want a mangosteen right now.

damn...those are so expensive. but if the craving is just too much, why resist :)
One piece is not enough, Mike. Then, if I buy for me, I also have to buy for the rest of the fam. :(
They are so expensive over there. The same shock the Americans got when they saw the apples and oranges are sold here costing like bombs! LOL
