A woman visited Benidorm market with only €10 in her pocket and can’t believe what she managed to buy – and it’s not the first time people have commented on the prices in Benidorm. Beth Alexandra recently posted a video of her journey, and she took people on a tour of the market.
The TikTok creator, from Scotland, recently opened up about her adventure in Spain, and she admitted she wanted to know what she could snap up for €10, which works out at about £8.66. Her story has left people a little stunned, as people couldn’t believe what she managed to bag whilst shopping.
In a recent clip shared online, she admitted she headed to Benidorm market to carry out the experiment. It seems as though she had a pretty good time, even though there are reports Spain has become “eerily quiet” this year.
Beth said: “This is what €10 can get you at Benidorm market. We’re just heading down to the Benidorm outdoor market, and I’m very excited to go.
“I don’t really know what I’m going to get, but I’ve got my €10, so let’s go and see what we can get.” After arriving at the location, she continued: “It’s just after 10 o’clock, but it’s absolutely roasting still.”
Beth admitted it was “very busy” when she was looking around, but she soon started to browse some of the stalls. She looked at various items – from bags to clothes to earrings.
She admitted she thought a few pairs were “cute”, including ones in the shape of cherries. As well as this, she took a liking to a pair of starfish earrings.
In the end, she settled on the starfish earrings, and she admitted she “loves” them. She also picked up some fruit earrings too, which were equally as pretty.
Beth didn’t clarify how much she spent, or if she had change, but she thought she landed a pretty good deal. She admitted she was “happy” with her purchases.
Over 30,000 people have liked the video since it was shared, and they were quick to comment too. Hundreds shared their views on her shopping trip.
One said: “You’re making me fancy a holiday.” Another wrote: “I love Benidorm – it’s so good.”
A third replied: “We were there today. Some cute finds. Hope you had a lovely holiday.” Meanwhile, a fourth also commented: “We lasted 20 minutes on Sunday – it was too hot for the market.”
Someone else also chimed in with: “Omg, I’ve been there and I loved it. It was so hot when I went though.”
If you’ve never been before, Benidorm’s famous outdoor market is on every Wednesday and Sunday from 9am to 2pm. You will find a wide range of goods available at the stalls.
Tourists are warned that it’s always busy, so make sure you keep your purse placed away somewhere safe if you visit. There are also numerous nearby bars and cafés where you can relax and have a coffee if shopping is not your favourite activity.
