Moja Bosna!!

You know you are in Bosnia when....

...you go wedding dress shopping with your friend and the women working there are filling the little shop and all the dresses with their chain smoking!

...the police man pulls you over, looks at your passport, and asks if both of the women are yours. When he finds out only one is, he asks if the other is available.

...the cashier runs out of change so she gives you a gum ball for the difference.

...you see someone at the store ripping a battery out of the package right in front of an employee, only to realize that this is a normal practice. (What is strange is to buy the whole package here!)

...when the medical emergency team runs out of the clinic for a call, but must all smoke a cigarette before loading into the ambulance.

Gumballs replace money! Maybe you should try this in reverse. When you don't have quite enough to pay for something, just pull some gum out of your purse! Maybe offering a cigarette to make up the difference would have wider appeal!!!!!!!!

Funny stuff! I agree with Marlene maybe you should start carrying around gum balls and offer them for payment :)
