The prices are so-so, maybe 10 tenge cheaper there. And those who come to collect a lot of food, they will definitely take a taxi if they do not have their own transport. So consider that it was possible to buy it near the house . This is purely my opinion
There are 5-6 markets in a city of 130 thousand people, and they are all small and stupid, there is not one big bazaar, the people's market is no exception, on weekends only meat is inexpensive, because fairs are held, and there is nothing else there really
In general, the bazaar is not bad, but it is not very clean, and the smell cannot be expressed in words at all. In the summer, the smell scares away, in the winter it is impossible to pass, snow and ice. I wish I had a janitor. And the tenants should be disturbed so that the windows and doors are washed
