BE VIGILANT, TRY TO CHEAT!
I changed money to buy insurance, which costs 30 GEL. When I went to the window, I immediately said that I wanted to get 30 GEL. The money changer informs me that it is 1,250 rubles and immediately puts 30 GEL on the counter. I start looking for rubles in my bag. I count out 1300 rubles and put it on the counter. I do not touch the GEL, because I believe that the money changer should add about 1 GEL, because I gave 50 rubles more.
Next, the money changer takes both rubles and lari. He gives 50 rubles in change. And all… He begins to cheerfully tweet with a friend in Georgian.
Sleight of hand and no cheating!
After my question, "Will you give me a lari?"He doesn't pay attention to me. I repeat the question. He gives me a languid look. I repeat the question for the third time. He replies that he has already given me the lari.
A verbal altercation begins in raised tones, as a result of which the money changer reluctantly takes 30 GEL out of the cash register and throws it on the counter.
In a word, this bad man spoiled the mood almost immediately after entering Georgia.
After I drove the whole country up and down, there were no problems in any other exchanger.
