EN: to sell by retail; to sell in small quantities
The "sachet economy" in verb form. This is the business model of every sari-sari store. Why buy a whole bottle of shampoo when you can buy one sachet? Why buy a whole pack of cigarettes when you can buy one stick? That's the magic of 'itingi'. Selling things piece by piece.
