Mangaldas Market, Mumbai.

My wife, the market haggling Jedi master, has attempted to teach me well in the past, and it may be working. Just spent ?5,000 (£60) on five items in Mumbai's Mangaldas market (the place to go for Indian textiles and traditional clothes according to Lonely Planet). I haggled, but didn't think I did such a good job. Price check at shops near hotel. Pashminas (just one!) range between ?6,000 (£72) and ?19,000 (£230). So that's somewhere between a 6X and 19X savings. Job done!
