Tourists also like to buy inexpensive products from local businesses, which are sold both in malls and markets..

As for the very ritual of trading in order to bring down the price, it is irreplaceable in the markets and in small shops. You can try to save money by temperamental communication with the seller and in shopping malls, but most likely the venture will fail. Significant bulk discounts happen during annual events «Spring promotions» and «Summer surprises», and also in Ramadan.
