[QUOTE]Originally posted by Sobriquet: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mother War: [qb] I didn't have a lot of experiences in Egypt with Egyptians outside of my husband's family. I felt a lot of generosity and kindness from the majority of his family (with the exception of two ppl, an aunt and a cousin's wife..these were also jealousy based problems). The experiences I had with Egyptians outside of the family were not all that positive (ppl trying to rip us off because I am American). I suppose if I lived there long term and had more experience perhaps I would have seen the generosity and kindness outside of the family. [/qb][/QUOTE]You are 1000% right, that's right one thousand percent right. Many Egyptians will fleece foreigners, especially Americans. Give your husband a good smack to the back of the head! Really! Why are you dealing with such situations and purchases. Egyptians will size you up and if something is 5 L.E it will be 5 dollars for u! Where was your husband in all of this, because it could've been avoidable. Sorry MW - it is your husbands fault. I lived in Cairo 5 years and my wife was getting stuff 25%-33% cheaper. [/QB][/QUOTE]
