Bookstores and newsstands can also be found in the malls and throughout the city.
Vendors often walk the beaches, selling sarongs, hats, sunglasses, sunscreen, and snacks.
As well, there are often stands at the beach where soft drinks and alcoholic beverages are for sale. In the parks, vendors sell souvenirs and food. It is common for street vendors to double or triple their prices when selling to a tourist. Do not hesitate to barter. In most Brazilian cities and towns, there is usually a weekly arts and crafts fair, often held on Sunday.
