Social media has been taken by a storm after the announcement of the customs duties rise of certain luxury products. Now after our initial panic has resided, we decided to read more about the items that will sabotage our salaries. Worry not dear citizens, let’s all just live without them.

Corsets will no more be an essential. Egypt will be surrounded by cellulite everywhere you go…
Shavers? Who needs them? Let’s all grow beards and get a ball and name it Wilson
Avocados. We only look at them at the supermarket but never purchase any because we are too lazy to Google how it’s cut
Why pay 40% more on a split air conditioner when I can buy takeef shebak? I have had one for 10 years and except for its deafening noise, it’s working zai elfol
Why pay more for deodorant? Go local and get Nabulsi

Roller blades and hopefully hover boards are on that list as well. It’s about time these kids start using their legs and walk again
Goodbye wrist watches, we’ll pretend we’re rappers and wear a menabeh
WE SAID THIS: Don’t miss 14 Egyptians You Should Block on Facebook in 2016.
