the ubiquitous ukay-ukay

marked-down and/or second-hand clothing has taken on a hip quality for some, and it looks like the trend is here to stay. at least in qc, there seems to be an ukay-ukay shop of some kind every few blocks (but then some of them could just be mere garage sales...).

on the way to cubao this morning, there was one such place.

"ukay dito" was its name.

not too far from this was another. what was it called?

"ukay ka ba diyan?"

pinoys will never run out of witty names for any kind of establishment...
