Why would we promote something that we aren't at? And I also dispute the spending money suggestion in your post.

Sorry I thought you were promoting arts and crafts in Dubai rather than just your own merchandise. Anyway, for those interested, it seems that this Friday's Dubai Flea Market is being held indoors at the World Trade Centre rather than Safa Park. Entry free apparently, opening hours 2-7pm, so it looks like a busy weekend for bargain hunters like myself.

At the last flea market we bought a massive hamster cage with all the trimmings and accessories for Dhs25 and our three Syrian hamsters were mightily grateful. Somebody was obviously leaving the UAE and was selling stuff dirt cheap. Plenty of bargains to be had if you don't mind beating the Filipinos to the rush. A full sized guitar case for Dhs30 was also purchased on our last visit. Yes, we do have a guitar!

Fair play. Do you go with things in mind or just wander round and see a bargain that's useful?

Assuming you'll have no need for the hamster cage in about 6 months time, I would be interested in buying it off you.

Why would I have no need for it in 6 months time?

Syrian hamsters normally live for 2-3 years in captivity. One of mine is 9 months old, the others are 3-4 months old.

Indeed, but you'll be rationing the food to make it last longer - or skewer them for a cheap kebab!
