00:01 Star of Christmas for their love,
00:04 every good night, of course, the lechon and ham.
00:09 But how is the price of those?
00:12 Let's find out in the live show of "Tutok sa La Loma"
00:15 with Tina Panganimang Perez.
00:17 Tina!
00:18 Mel, if you're looking for lechon here in La Loma, Quezon City,
00:25 the sales of lechon increased this December when many reunions and parties were held.
00:33 Lechon sellers are all over the place in La Loma, Quezon City,
00:40 and there are also many people who are buying because of the abundance.
00:44 It's selling well because it's the season of lechon.
00:49 Pork is a sign of prosperity, right?
00:53 That's why we sell lechon yearly.
00:56 In this store, the price of lechon per 15 people increased from P6,000 to P7,500.
01:05 But the customers are not complaining.
01:08 They understand the system that the price will increase in December.
01:13 If they want to save, for example, they can buy a small one.
01:18 They are already big, they can afford a big one.
01:20 We increased a bit because the suppliers also increased.
01:24 It's only P500.
01:26 A big lechon can reach P25,000.
01:29 There is also a giveaway for those who will buy a whole lechon from a store.
01:34 We have dinuguan, bopis, and paksiw.
01:37 They can choose.
01:39 If they want to save, they can buy a head or a leg that can reach P700 per kilo
01:46 or a head that can reach P1,500 per kilo, like Ms. Tshato who came from Tanawan, Batangas.
01:54 We don't have a budget for a whole lechon.
01:57 We will buy a head per kilo.
01:59 Of course, it's only for Christmas.
02:02 The head is ready to eat.
02:04 It can be boiled, it can be boiled, it can be boiled.
02:10 Hamon is also not missing from Noche Buena. It's already being sold in a store in Quiapo, Manila.
02:18 Even though the price varies, it's up to P7.
02:22 A kilo of Chinese ham is already P1,880 while a kilo of scrap ham is already P1,640.
02:30 When I go to the church, I'm used to it because my parents are still alive, they always have this.
02:37 [ambient street noise]
02:42 Mel, we are expecting a strong sale of lechon and ham this weekend,
02:47 the last weekend before Christmas and until the new year.
02:51 Back to you, Mel, and Merry Christmas.
02:54 Merry Christmas to me, Tina.
02:58 Thank you very much, Tina Panganiban Perez.
