Running errands
Around here people usually plan on relaxing on Fridays and Saturdays, but it's quite the opposite for me. On Fridays I try to head out and run some errands, get some groceries maybe, check off a few things from that little list of mine.

Luckily for me, this time the list was quite short, mainly about two things that needed to be taken care of. The first was to acquire a bit of information that I needed to get from a certain shop at Jamuna Future Park, and the second was to get some "uncommon" goodies, which are only available in big branded grocery shops around here.

But when it was time to head out I just took a peek at the sky, and then I wasn't feeling quite lucky anymore. Just as I started walking, it started to rain. The "downpour" was quite random though, one minute it's raining quite heavily, and then suddenly it all vanishes into thin air. 

After a short walk I managed to get on a rickshaw, which then helped me cover a bit of distance, while also saving me from getting drenched. 

Thanks to this man and his quick reaction while handing me the water resistant sheet, I got to save my clothes from all the rain, and from the cars which were splashing water at us from those little puddles on the road. 

After I reached my destination I gave him a well deserved tip, and also made sure he knew that he's doing a great job. His reaction and smile said it all.

After entering the premises I made my way to the fourth floor, which is actually the tech floor, then I just had to locate the little shop I was looking for. 

I know people have a tough time finding the shops they're looking for in these big shopping malls, but I know this place better than the back of my hands. 

It's quite easy actually, if you just pay attention then it's all quite easy to remember. Also, there's more than enough info provided that helps guide you quite well, but I myself have never had to look at a single sign, but the signs sure do help if you're someone who keeps on forgetting. 

So, after getting that little info from the store owner, I was on my downstairs again.

After a few escalator rides I found myself here, two stories under the ground, clicking pictures in front of Wholesale Club.

Remember how I started off by saying how people here like to relax on a Friday? Well, there's actually two kinds of people here on a Friday, some just love kicking it back at home, and then we have the energetic bunch, the people who prefer spending a bit of time outside instead.

And it seems that we have a lazy bunch of staff members here in the mall, it has been a month since Eid 2022, yet all the decoration is lit up quite well haha. Maybe they're just keeping it well maintained and intact for Eid-ul-Adha, who knows.

As soon you enter the store, you can see that they surely do live up to their name. The word Wholesale goes quite well with this place, a lot of uncommon products, and quite a huge stock too.
But the price of the products weren't even close to the wholesale prices I've seen outside, they were quite expensive actually. 

Yet, what can you do really? When you have a list of things you need to get, and as most of these things are quite scarce, you just have to "pay the price" I guess. At least the staff was kind enough, and they surely knew what they were doing.

The sad part is that no one is allowed to take pictures, by the time I managed to take these two clicks, they just shut me down haha. I don't know why they have such rules, seems a bit stupid to me, but hey, that's just me, I can bet that there's a good reason behind it all.

After about 30 minutes I was done with this week's grocery shopping. It usually takes me a lot less time to get everything and check out, but this place is huge, so you'll surely need to spend a bit of extra time browsing over here.

Well, that's about it for my Market Friday experience I guess. If you've managed to read till the end, then I must thank you for sticking around. 

You folks take care now, till we meet again. 

**Cheers** 🥃

Did you get a rickshaw back home? I would have to guess if you have a lot of groceries. You never did say what you bought. 

I like the shot of the busy street and the rain. You are in Bangladesh, yes? Dhaka? I recognize that mall as being an amazingly huge mall with almost (or more than?) 500 stores!! Wow!

Thank you for being part of #MarketFriday!

#MarketFriday began as a way to reach out across the globe and learn about different cultures through their markets, especially local markets and farmers' markets, and eventually branched out and evolved over time from straight shopping to a cultural affair as it highlights how we differ and then again, how much we are alike. We have become a melting pot of culture, but, it is still the Rituals, Festivals, food, architecture, and even your language/languages that separate us... Along with the fact that is these things are normal for us. There are unwritten rules that rule our social behaviors. I see this as allowing for increased tolerance between cultures and nations, and opportunities to come together on an even playing ground. A strong culture can be beneficial to a country as it promotes unity, especially during a crisis, peaceful debate, and open dialogue. I have learned so much about all of you and it has been an amazing experience.  I can only hope that learning about each other can help us work together for a peaceful world.

 Fridays are all about the #MarketFriday Challenge! Looking to take part in it? Here is how:</center>

Yes I am in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and yes, it is quite a big mall we have here. It's one of the largest in Asia and probably one of the biggest in the whole world even. So it sure as hell is a huge pain in the back for someone who doesn't like to walk haha. 

And I didn't actually get a rickshaw back home, the groceries weren't that heavy, only a few handy things that I had to get. It stopped raining by the time I got out, so I just decided to walk instead, the mall is probably 8 to 10 minutes away from my home.

I thank you for dropping by and for sharing your thoughts, I really do appreciate it. Take care now. Cheers 🥃☮️

Thank you again. It would help tremendously to tell where you are in case people have never been there or are familiar. I always assume people don't know. It is truly an amazing mall ! Poor you trying to get around it!
