[QUOTE]Originally posted by Shebah: [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 [/QUOTE] [QUOTE] My husband was with me at all times. It was only the times when the merchants actually heard my voice that they tried to rip us off. My husband wouldn't have any of it. Once we bought batteries outside of Sala'adin's citadel and paid 8LE. Two days later we bought batteries again from the same guy and because I had spoken to my husband in front of him he tried to charge us 15LE. My husband told him, we will not pay any more than we did two days ago when we bought batteries from you. So, yes, ppl tried to rip us off because I'm American but none of them actually did. [/QUOTE]Sorry Sobriquet, but MW is right. This is the norm. MK: She asked for it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
