Isn't the night market supposed to be for commoners?! Where did 1000 kuai go?!
Last night, I went to the night market in a great mood. The free parking lot really boosted my spirits, but when I settled the accounts today... this old man's heart is bleeding! I casually ordered some sour fish, munched on some sweet potato balls, bought two giant squid, and got a drink - *ding!* A thousand-yuan bill just vanished into thin air! I remember not too long ago, you could go from one end of the night market to the other with a thousand-yuan bill, eating your fill and coming home with a bunch of goodies. Nowadays, night markets are practically 'wallet shredders.' Just buy three to five items, and your spending is on par with mid-to-high-end restaurants. * Old night markets: Under 100 kuai, eat till you burst. * New night markets: 1000 kuai gone, barely full. Looking at my empty wallet, I could only console myself: It's okay, at least I saved on parking fees... (Yeah, right! That doesn't make up for it at all!) * Today's lesson: Free parking is a sweet escape, night market prices are the real assassins! When you go to the night market these days, do you also feel like your thousand-yuan bills sprout wings and fly away super fast? Seeking comfort online! 💸💸💸

A bunch of stuff that doesn't belong in a night market also drives up the prices....

Night markets aren't for the common folk anymore. Anything you buy starts at 70-80 NTD, unlike before when 1000 NTD could get you a full meal and plenty of goodies to take home.

Nowadays, you need to spend at least over 500 just to get full at the night market.

Nowadays, people eat at department store or supermarket food courts. It's not cheap, but at least there's air conditioning.

Night markets nowadays really aren't worth the price. High prices, low hygiene, no AC, and super crowded... I'm not going anymore.

It's not just expensive, the night market food is always the same stuff rotating, and the prices are similar. Might as well just go eat at a restaurant.

Even commoner snacks aren't for commoners anymore.
Thanks for sharing, that's true.
