00:00Let's do a price check on fruits.
00:03The new year is coming.
00:05Live from Binondo, we have the first news, James Agustin. James?
00:13Susan, good morning.
00:14Today, the price of fruits sold here in Divisoria, Binondo, Manila is still the same
00:21compared to before Christmas.
00:24But sellers here are hoping that it will go up from tomorrow until the eve of the new year.
00:34Now, Jennifer is checking the prices of fruits in Binondo, Manila for the new year.
00:40I also buy, sir. It depends on the budget.
00:44What do you believe in?
00:46It's okay, sir. They say it's for good luck.
00:49Usually, Filipinos buy 12 fruits that they believe are for good luck.
00:55For example, 3 for 100 pesos of persimmon, Fuji apple, orange, pears, and kiwi.
01:023 for 50 pesos of lemon.
01:04250 pesos per kilo of seedless grapes.
01:07300 pesos per kilo of green and black grapes.
01:11There are also longan and suha for 200 pesos per kilo.
01:15Longan can be bought for 150 pesos per pack.
01:18That's 8 pieces.
01:20Blueberries are for 250 pesos per pack.
01:23It has 125 grams of meat.
01:25For now, the price hasn't gone up yet.
01:28But sellers are hoping that it will go up, especially on the eve of the new year.
01:31Before Christmas, it went up a bit, but per box, it was only 50 pesos.
01:36It's not like when it's New Year,
01:39until December 27, the price goes up every night for the new year.
01:45But what about those who want a tight budget but want to be able to buy 12 fruits?
01:50If you give them, for example, if they want to buy one piece,
01:53it's okay, we will just compute the price.
01:56So that they can buy, for good luck.
02:04Meanwhile, aside from here in Santa Elena Street,
02:07where I am now, the fruit vendors,
02:10our hearts can also go to Carmen Plana Street and Santo Cristo Street.
02:15And I noticed, Susan, that from the stores that sell gifts for Christmas,
02:22now, slowly, there are a lot of vendors selling good luck for the new year.
02:27That's the first news from Manila.
02:28I am James Agustin for GMA Integrated News.
