Sarojini Nagar market is one of the biggest and most popular markets in Delhi. Just imagine a branded bag that you buy for 1000 rs online is sold here for 300. Sounds unrealistic, right?
I know; I was in disbelief, but the day came when I went to the market, and my mind was blown. I did a lot of shopping that day.
Though it was a pretty good experience, I felt sad about it when one of my friends who had been living there for a long time told me the truth.
No no! There is nothing wrong with the quality. You just have to be aware of the pricing. If the salesperson says that the bag you want to buy costs 500 rupees, it means that the actual price is 250 or less.
If you want to survive in Sarojini Nagar, you need to learn how to bargain. I know the deal looks very attractive, and you don’t want to waste time bargaining over a bag.
But if you do, you can save a lot of money. No need to feel guilty; you are paying the actual price only. Nothing more than that.
So, before jumping into that, let us know what you can get in this market and why people are so obsessed about it.

“Brother! Brother jeans!” Do you remember something? Yeah, that line. I still laugh whenever I hear it.
