Smokin' Deal

China is cheap, especially when the Chinese government wants to put on a good clean show for the rest of the world. The World Expo opens in two weeks so everything is getting a final sweep through. The bootleg shops have all been closed (no more 50 cent DVDs) and the street vendors are being kicked back to the country. Today was the last day they were allowed to sell in the metro stations so they were out in droves. When that many people are all selling the same thing you are bound to get a good deal. I bought twelve necklaces, six bracelets and five pairs of earrings for $40.00. Some of you might be receiving these as Christmas gifts so act surprised.
