My first item on Moroccan Credit

I have seen US currency since November 2012, I am completely living off Dirhams, I have to admit it is a bit strange being dependent on a currency that is 8 times less than the US Dollar..Buying fruit and vegetables is affordable, but one kilo of basmati rice cost as much as a pair of shoes..lol. Curtin things like clothes, shoes, and household items come after about a month of saving… The girl’s father sent them new coats for Christmas, and after a month of saving I just bought them new rain coats. But pour mommy was getting soaked ever time it rained. It is too windy to really use an umbrella here, it just flips all up, and then you have to buy another one before it rains again. So I have been pricing rain coats for myself. I saw one that I like but it was a little out of my budget, I had tried to bargain with the lady, but she was not budging. Then I kind of said under my breath I wish you had Lay-A-way…..then she said  “we do” she hops up takes down the coat and hands it to me, I told I could only put 20DH on it. The she says “no problem” and continues to put the coat in a bag. I asked her “how much is the next payment and when do you need by” her response shocked me!! “Whenever you have it” she said and handed me the coat…OMG!!!! Does it get any better than this…Buying an item on credit, you pay what you can when you can….She did not even ask for my name, number or anything…I love living in a place where people trust people…This is the most amazing feeling ever. So today I bought my first item with Moroccan Credit!!!! God Bless Morocco!
