[quote=GRIZ326                 ,32142]I really did not consider most items to be a "bargain" by my definition. Most items were less expensive, but no real "deals!!!" ...maybe a 30% savings over in-store USA prices. Okay...that's a deal, but not the sort of deal I saw many years ago. 8x10 large woven wool rugs sold in the Friendship stores then starting at $400 USD...but in the states they'd start at $1200.For instance...a bag of loose tea...Huangshan Maofeng...was 18 RMB...very nearly the same price as loose green tea in the USA. (...don't know enough about tea to know quality...only if I like the taste)...but then I did not visit China for bargains. I did get about a 60-70% savings on a big suitcase for shipping though...OH! Food was a tremendous bargain! There were usually 4 mouths at every meal and the bill rarely exceeded 50-60 RMB for 4-6 different dishes. I can hardly wait to return......but this time I will be looking for bargain printing in Beijing for a business project.  :)[/quote]
