We went to Pittsburgh last weekend because we no longer have Asian goodies in our pantry. We brought $200 dollars with us and we spent every penny of it wahhh. Everything is getting expensive, even a can of coconut milk which was $1.79 during our last shop, is over $2 now, whew!
We live in Weirton so it takes an hour to drive from our place to Pittsburgh so when we shop, we make sure to get the things we need as it would take months before we could shop there again. The good thing is we got the things that we love including a box of champagne mangoes, a case of coconut juice, mixes that I need for my cooking, canned goods, asian veggies, and more.
Mangoes are produced from Mexico, it's the closest thing to our Philippine mangoes which we all love except our son. Anyhow, this would last us a couple of months, well except the mango as it is getting eaten so fast lol. Indulging myself with Asian goodies is my only vice hehehe.

Buti ka pa dyan sis may other alternative, dito wala hehehe. Mahal na nga ang gas, it is almos $4 a gallon here sigh..
How I miss mangoes, they were so cheap in S.Africa and the ones we get here are not only expensive but not that tasty either! Take care Diane
that is one bulk shopping. Filipino goodies are getting expensive nowadays even here in Singapore. I have to buy lots when I visit home.
That mango is really good, I just bought some from Walmart. My Asian food that I bought online is almost gone. this post reminds me to get some more.
dami naman nya sis.. but it's too expensive for $200 hehehhe.. anyhow enjoy eating them..
that's a lot of goodies. I need to go to the Asian store, I am running out of Silver Swan soy sauce, my 1 gallon is almost gone, wahhhh!
The mangoes here in the Philippines is very affordable. You can buy worth P100.00 and it's already 2 kilos. Just like you, my mom loves shopping in a Pinoy store.
Whoa! These are a lot! You definitely love to shop but I love the mangoes a lot. :)
expensive or not as long as the family everyone in the family is happy with satisfied with the food is all worth.. enjoy eating
i'm so happy for you sis that you'll finally be able to satisfy your craving for asian food, especially filipino food. i saw some nagaraya and pancit canton. it's a good thing that the store's a few steps away from here or else i'll suffer from craving too. :)
WOW! $200 worth of Pinoy goodies! That's a lot but considering that you get to eat the food you missed, is priceless
It's good to know that you still stick and patronize our own products.
