As far as I am concerned, the whole town is a tourist trap. Prices are extremely inflated and I know the tourists are paying way more than the locals. I mean $3 for a large bottle of water? I don't pay that anywhere in America for goodness sakes. My favorite is the little candy bars that are like a 3rd of the size of the ones we get in the U.S. and they charge 3 times as much as I pay here for it!

Fun Alternatives: Buy all your stuff in Amman or elsewhere and bring it in. It might be hard to carry all the water, but I am sure it wouldn't be too hard to bring nuts, snacks, etc. in.
