Stall at Katunayake wants a souvenir price for bananas. Elder in the group is already annoyed. 26 Aug. I will not perform bargaining as sport.

Pay a little over ordinary if you want the fruit now. Walk toward Negombo Fort if the number is theatre. Ask the price before they bag it. Do not invent a tourist tax gazette. Do not shout. Two stalls is a survey. Ten stalls is a hobby.

We walked Negombo Fort, bought fruit, ate on a wall. Fine.

Pride bargains a banana into a scene. Kids remember the scene.

If you like the stall, pay and leave. That is also allowed.

Small bills. A 5000 on bananas is how you donate.

Ask 'how much' first. Always.
