WEEKLLY WINNERS - Souvenir Shop


More participants here at Sarcastic Mom Weekly winners

I take you on a walk through a typical souvenir shop in Egypt. It has a lot of success because the owner understood our mentality and has fixed prices so, you don't have to haggle. You will find Gods, pharaohs, kings and queens on all kind of things from a lighter through plates until toilet paper holders.








these should bring luck




and this is the God of Fertility, nice on your mantle piece or window sill


cats of course




mother of pearl boxes


When your read this I am sitting in the plane to fly home into the cold and grey Belgian weather.

  4. Well... the only difference between Egyptian souvenir shops and American souvenir shops is our JUNK doesn't have GOD's on it! I hate souvenir shops... truly I do! It is all JUNK... no matter what it is!
