Why go to the fish market?

When the fish market will come to you!

At first, I couldn’t understand what was being announced over the megaphone so when I walked out onto the dirt road, I was shocked to find two men on tricycle selling fish! They had a microphone and radio hooked up to speakers, luring customers by incorporating their special of the day into their karaoke routine.

I’m pretty sure that the locals were amused by my excitement for the mobile fish market since it is quite typical for vendors in remote areas to use similar tactics to sell their goods. But wow, what a clever way to market and sell products!
