SHOPPING

Prices for different items are as marked in different Departmental Stores (Supermarkets, Grocery Stores). However, in general, in open markets, the buyer has room to haggle/bargain for a reduction of the initial price set by the vendor/seller.

Please Note:

  • Prices for items are not inclusive of custom charges if you are to take the items to your home country.
  • If you use a Credit Card for the purchase of items, you will be debited in the local currency. It is therefore imperative for your local / home bank to establish the exchange rate on the debit/transaction.
  • Sales Tax / VAT is normally included in the price indicated on the price tags.
