Vietnam can be funny. Some goods and products are extremely expensive while others are beyond affordable. Serioulsy, something like a Ipad may be marked up 100%-200% in Vietnam. And even with that mark up you don't know if it is a legit product or not.

On the other hand, everyday goods almost seem ridiculously cheap. Case in point is the garlic we bought yesterday. We have been eating way more garlic since arriving so we thought that we should step up our buying. At the market we handed over a 10,000 Dong note (about 50 cents) to our vendor and asked for as much garlic as we could get for that.

Holy mother of what!!! For just 50 cents we got enough garlic to kill the whole vampire cast of Twilight. So maybe we will not be buying Ipads here but we certainly will be consuming mass amounts of garlic. Keep the bargains rolling!!!

Garlic!!!
