I believe shopping is a great pastime, and many people prefer to shop in various places like malls, roadside markets, or street markets. While some people prefer to shop in malls, others, especially those with limited financial resources, often shop at roadside or street markets. Today, I'd like to share about a well-known market in my city, located in the city center. It's usually open on Sundays. In the past decades, it was located in the heart of the city, along a pathway. However, the Kerala government shifted it to a new area and named it the Golden Market. It's a very comfortable market for the shop owners, many of whom are from lower-income backgrounds. I usually go there with my friends. Recently, I bought my final year books from the market. They were very cheap because they were second-hand books. The original price of the books was Rs. 300, but I got them for only Rs. 100. I was very happy because I was able to get all the books I needed for my undergraduate studies at a much lower price, saving me a significant amount of money. Next time I go there with my friends, I plan to buy some jewelry and mobile accessories. The quality of the books I bought was very good, and I'm sure I'll find other great deals in the future.
