Shops are generally open from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Saturday and closed on Sunday. Some shops close for lunch between 12 and 2 p.m. In tourist towns, the shops are open for longer, with no lunch break.

Good-natured haggling is the norm: offer half to two-thirds of the asking price, then settle on a price somewhere in between. Don’t offer unless you are serious; to settle on a price and then not buy is considered bad manners. Once a week most towns have a farmers’ market (Pazar) mainly for locally grown fresh fruit and vegetables. You can haggle when shopping but do not haggle at farmers’ markets for produce prices.
