Bargaining for a deal in Peru


I bought one of those woven bracelets from this lady. Some of the guys on the trip thought I paid too much for it, but I kept looking at her little child and thought, "I didn't give her enough."  I only gave her a couple Soles or something and it probably took her all day to make it.

According to my friends, you never pay what they're asking for something. And I understand that thinking when you're in big market and they're selling stuff they didn't even make. It was clear to me this lady made everything she was selling. I think my friends just wanted her hat!
