Bargaining is common and expected in Egyptian markets. Here’s how to do it:
Start at about half the initial price offered
Be polite, friendly, and maintain a positive attitude
Don’t rush—take time to show interest in the item
If prices don’t meet your budget, walk away—sellers often lower prices
Agree on the final price before buying
Small bills help make transactions smoother
