How it works
Vendors in the medina and small shops near tourist sites short-change tourists by returning incorrect amounts, particularly when transactions involve a mix of large and small denomination dinar notes. The problem is compounded by the fact that Tunisian coins (millimes) are rarely returned to tourists, with vendors pocketing the difference. Some shops round up prices arbitrarily for foreign customers.
