Tips in Shopping:

1. Just like in any shopping malls, do not try to bargain in shopping malls and stores with fixed prices.You can bargain only in traditional markets or in stores without price tags in their items.

2. When you are interested in an item, don't start bargaining but first ask the vendor the price of the item.

3. Then, you can offer to pay one quarter to one half of the first asking price, then the vendor will keep making counter offers until you reach a suitable median price.

4. The final and agreed price of the item is probably about one half to two thirds of the initial asking price.

5. In some traditional markets the prices offered are already low so don't keep pushing the vendors to give you a very low price since this is considered an offense to them. .

6. If you think the asking price is still expensive, just leave the shop or stall and find another one which has the same items.

7. Then, as you know the price of similar items you are interested in you can remind the vendor if they give you high initial asking price.
