Customers bargain for prices and prices can vary significantly.
Quality may also vary from vendor to vendor, and from day to day. To get the freshest produce go to the market in the morning, by evening there may not be much to choose from. General stores carry other grocery and toiletry items such a toothpaste, but do not sell vegetables or fruits. Milk and milk products such as yogurt, paneer, cheese, and butter are normally purchased at local milk booths. People may bring their own milk containers or buy the milk in bottles.
