  Perusing The Handbags, Hats And Cigarettes
by johngayton
 
 

No matter what you’re shopping for in the open market area of the old bazaar, whether handbags or hats, strawberries or celery, you can always pick up a carton of cheap cigarettes.

Every other stall has a mini mountain of them, both local and international brands, and seem to do a brisk business with locals and tourists alike.

What to pay: Personally I don't smoke the things and have no idea of the cost, nor of their provenance, but I'd assume this would be another opportunity to practise your haggling skills.
