Tourist Trap: To negotiate prices
  • Tip Rating:
  • To buy every thing (also one slip) I needed to adopt this method:
    I divided the price he told me for 3 then I negotiate till to reach the half price.
    For example, he says 3000 ouguiya, I say 1000, he 2500, me 1200, he 2000, me 1500 last price, he say no. Then I take the way without buy... after ten steps he run on my back and says ok, ok!

     What an adventure you've had here! Luggages are replaceable, good to know you made it here safely! Can't say the same for those poor souls on flight 447! That's the real tragedy!
