Early Satruday Morning @ Dangwa

my bff jane asked me to accompany her to dangwa for she needs to to buy a bouquet of flowers for her friend. so at 6 in the morning (i wonder why we had to be early there?!?! zzzzzz....!) we trooped to dangwa flower market in sampaloc.

the last time i went to dangwa, i was still in college. i remember my other bff, day, had a flower arrangement class so i always accompany her there not because i'm a good friend but because my ultimate crush lives in that area ;) we bumped into him a couple of times so it was like hitting two birds with one stone :)

the flowers in dangwa are really fresh because according to the manong there flowers are delivered early in the morning. it was a street full of flowers - from carnation, to roses, birds of paradise and orchids. the best part is that the prices are so reasonable. just imagine, 2 dozens of long-stemmed roses for only P70!!! whereas in malls this could be really expensive.

carnation costs P100 per bundle, star gazer is between P100-P150 and malaysian mums cost P100 per bundle too :)




jane chose birds of paradise, star gazer and carnation for her bouquet. then a manong from the store arranged the flowers for her.


and the result...tadah!


jane paid for ony P340 for the bouquet plus P100 for the arrangement. quite cheap huh? worth the travel :)

  1. Dangwa is so near my place!!! Well, not really. It's about a jeepney ride away but still pretty close. Yup, you always have to go to Dangwa early to get the best price :)
