Customer Seeks Help After Being Locked Inside Ukay-Ukay Store
A customer went viral online after accidentally getting locked inside a thrift store in Isetann Recto, Quiapo, Manila, as the shop closed for the day.
Recently, Mich Keyshia Guevarra, a Facebook user, shared a video on Facebook showing her trapped inside the thrift store while trying on clothes. The post quickly circulated online and elicited various reactions from netizens.
Guevarra explained that she was inside the fitting room when the lights suddenly went out. At first, she thought it was just a power outage, but moments later, she heard the doors being shut.
Realizing she was alone and locked inside, she panicked, especially since she was still in her underwear. She hurriedly put on her shorts, turned on her phone’s flashlight, and checked if there was anyone around.
After knocking repeatedly on the doors with no response, she decided to move some display shoes near the entrance, hoping someone outside would notice her. Luckily, a male staff member working on his laptop nearby saw her and was surprised to find someone still inside.
The staff immediately informed the security guard, only to discover that the store keys had already been taken home by the owner. It made her even more anxious, as she had work the next day and feared she might be stuck inside overnight.
The guards joked that she should just sleep there. Fortunately, the owner was still at another branch nearby, and they were able to retrieve the keys and unlock the door. When she finally got out, six guards and the store owner were waiting, making it even more embarrassing for her.

Here is the full post:
“Nasa fitting room ako noon, tapos biglang namatay ‘yung ilaw. Akala ko brownout lang, pero maya-maya, narinig ko na isinara na talaga ‘yung pinto. Na-alarma si beki kasi naka-panty lang ako! Nagmadali akong isuot ‘yung short ko, nag-flashlight ako, tapos narealize ko—sarado na talaga at wala nang tao. Kinabahan ako, kaya kumatok ako nang kumatok, baka may makarinig. Wala pa rin, kaya binawasan ko ‘yung mga naka-display na sapatos sa harap ng pinto para may makakita sa akin. Buti nalang may lalaking staff na lumabas na nagtatrabaho sa may laptop, nagulat pa siya bakit may tao sa loob. Sinabihan niya agad ‘yung guard, ang talak pa naiuwi daw ng may-ari ‘yung susi! So na stress pa si bakla kasi may pasok pa ako bukas baka hindi ako makauwi tapos nilalaro pa ako ng mga guard na doon nadaw ako matulog. Buti na lang yata andun pa ‘yung may-ari sa kabilang branch, kaya nabuksan din. Paglabas ko, mga anim na guard nandun pati may ari sa kabilang branch, super nakakahiya”
