if not more, I can take you shopping and get them to add on whatever I ask, it's that easy, as long as you cannot speak the language and I smile and bulls*&t to you I can literally make a day to a months salary off anyone If I wanted to. It's a good thing I hate shopping and don't do shopping tours for a living.
Maybe if they are only charging 20% and the transport is included in the tour a shopping tour may actually be a better way to go.
