  Bowlin's

It seems that here in the United States, at least along the highways, the more signs you see advertising souvenirs the more likely you are to get ripped off. Along I-10 in New Mexico you will find a couple of shops run by the Bowlin's people. If you want to get authentic Native American crafts try the reservations. Not Bowlin's.

Unique Suggestions: Feel free to stop and look; but you may want to buy elsewhere. The Bowlin's on the continental divide offers a free liter of water so try that one. At least you get some water.

Fun Alternatives: Buy your Native American crafts and souvenirs from a reputable place on or near a reservation.

Review Helpfulness: 3.5 out of 5 stars
