Buying Fish

Went to the fish market this afternoon to buy fish for the dogs.  Tamban (small silver coloured fish 4 to 6 inches long that we like to eat smoked) is my usual choice.  As soon as I arrived there, a woman offered me Tamban at 40 pesos  (less than $1) a kg, so I bought 2 kilos.  They were smaller than average and the price was lowish. She put in about ten extra fish so I got more than 2 kg.  I could have tried bargaining and she probably would have agreed to 2 kg for 70 but then she wouldn't have put any extra in for me, and our cooking pot holds just over 2 kg so I handed over 80 pesos without discussing price.
