Street Vending, Bangkok, Thailand
Shopping's not my thing, but even I was compelled to join in. Bargaining is local tradition and fun game. Language barriers vanish as the everpresent calculator gives sellers a chance to type their price and you to counter. No Thai Baht? Currency conversion no problem. Just be prepared for knock-offs in the land of bogus labels without the hint of copyright or trademark enforcement. Clothing, shoes, eyeglasses, dvds and cds, jewelry, luggage, and whatever you could ever imagine, all for a song and a bit of friendly price negotiation. Everyone's a businessperson. Tourists welcome here.
