Ivana got hers for 280 Yuan, and I got mine for 260 Yuan. Not bad, considering we started at much higher prices!
What was the most memorable part of the shopping trip?
Definitely the super friendly and funny vendor! His wife even slapped him at one point, it was hilarious. And Ivana was amazing at bargaining, way better than me!
What were the shoes like?
The cheaper 50 Yuan ones weren't very comfortable, but the 100 Yuan ones were much better. I got a pair for 100 Yuan, and Ivana got hers for 300 Yuan.
Did you find everything you needed?
Pretty much! We got jackets, boots, and even some cool shoes. We might need snow pants for Harbin, though!
What was the biggest challenge?
Alipay wasn't working consistently, so we had to use cash for some purchases. Also, my bargaining skills are terrible compared to Ivana's!
