Thachileik: Cigarettes - 40B! No? How about some Viagra??

So right after you leave immigration there is a market down some steps
to your right. The bargain shoppers and clueless farangs pour down
this one staircase. It is a terrible bottleneck that vendors have
learned to use to their advantage - there are hoards of mobile vendors
just waiting you. There are so many that the crowd inevitably slows
and you are unable to escape. They are selling cigarettes and viagra
and who knows what else, but they are very aggressive and quite
irritating. (but they only wanted 40B for a carton of cigarettes!!
$1.30)
