Shopping Opportunities

With the extremely strong exchange rate favoring the US visitor, South Africa provides the tourist with an unlimited source of shopping opportunities.

Durban is surrounded by native craftsmen and their products can be purchased in shops, malls and on the side of the road. Bargains abound and haggling is an accepted part of the process.

Goods imported into South Africa are usually more expensive than the equivalent item in the USA, and this is especially true of consumer electronic items. Do not look for bargains in this area.

However, all domestically produced items are considerably cheaper than the US items. Food and alcohol will seem absurdly inexpensive. Tourists normally purchase a wide variety of gold and diamond jewelry, African carvings, paintings, basketwork and other local artifacts. 

Remember that you will be flying back with your purchases so those 10ft tall carved wooden giraffes that seemed like such a good idea at the time, start to make your life miserable at the airport.

And should you be looking to make the investment of a lifetime, $50 - $70,000 will buy you a very comfortable 4 bedroom house with double garage, pool and servants quarters!
