Along the routes of most
major highways throughout Venezuela are tollbooths. The
crazy thing about these booths is that you can sometimes sit
in a traffic-jammed line for an hour in order to pay the 200
Bolivar (about 10
cent) fee. As you sit in line to pay the toll, there are
Venezuelan entrepreneurs walking between the cars trying to
sell candy, beach toys, car parts, or other odd items. The
weird thing about that is that there might be 100 people
trying to sell stuff but you only see 5 different products.
My guess is that they may be more successful if they varied
their merchandise. |
