    I've lived here for 3 years. We're fully aware we get overcharged for things. After a while you'll learn to not go with the first or second price, but unless the price is outrageous, we don't mind. It's a blessing to be able to live here, and helping the locals make a living and feed their families is worth the extra $1 or $2. You'll most likely never get the same price they charge each other, and that's okay. It's the name of the game.

    What foreigners think is "cheap" is actually not the cheapest price that you can get. Foods and services are often overpriced especially when you are travelling you often have a lot of money so you just ignore it. Of course it is still cheaper than other countries but as a local person I just feel very ashamed and hope foreigners pay attention on what you are buying so you dont get scammed.

      totally agree. Let's compare, a Vietnamese bread with fried egg, cold meat, pate, vegetables, sauce... costs 20,000 ~ 25,000 vnd ( 1$ ). And a hamburger costs 4~5usd. Why should the same nutritious food have to choose the more expensive burger? And yes, I will choose bread. Left over 3$, enough for me to eat another bowl of pho and a cup of coffee.
