Walking around the souk you will notice some benches selling bronze plates and stuff. Many of them will "curve" with a nail your name in tunisian, in your language or any alphabet of the world, as long as you write it on a piece of paper.
I brought these as a souvenir gift for the people in the office and they seemed to enjoy it. :)

Address: Monastir souk - look around!
If you want to feel real shopping in Monastir you have to know to bargain.Also you need to have nerves of steel.The salesman will drag you in to their shops,hackle to you on the streets(if you are blonde) and try to do almost everything to make you buy some of their products.Don't be suprised if they offered you a cup of tea while you are looking for some fine leather jacket.That meens that thay want to negotiate with you about price.If you play smart you will get souvenir(or jacket) by very small price.Happy hunting!
