So I was shopping today in a big open market with fresh meat vegetables and fruit. Normally I have a banana every day for breakfast, so I know they cost about 2uah a banana - but I don't get them here. I asked the lady for two bananas an she puts them in the scale and says 8. I thought I heard her wrong and asked her again. Still 8. They were big bananas so I said no, and offered her five. She was still stuck on 8. So I walked off.
Moral of the story is that they thought because by Russian is terrible I must be a tourist and have money. That or the lady has no idea what a banana costs.
