as a westerner avoid asking "how much " in local shops make sure you point out or tell a local what you want and get them to ask the price.
example: my bother speaks Urdu and was dressed as a local he had been in the country 6 weeks had the tan and looked just like a local he went into a shop asked the price for a ladies suit/dress was given the price which was twice what it should have been he said to the shopkeeper keep your prices for tourists i am a locl , the shopkeeper replied you may look local but this dress is going to London pay the price or dont... my brother was shocked they can smell you out a mile away
Unique Suggestions: ensure you have a friendly relative who does not know how deep your pockets are suggest to them some ridiculous price and ask them to try and get it that way you will save loads
