With Christmas tomorrow, shoppers crowded the streets of Georgetown yesterday, seeking to pick up final gifts, and items for their homes.
Yesterday, the streets of Georgetown were unusually lined with shoppers and persons were seen still purchasing decorations and household items. The hottest selling items appeared to be doilies, mats and fruits. Apples and grapes are a must-have in almost every Guyanese home during the Christmas season. Yesterday, numerous vendors selling those fruits and other items could be seen in both the Bourda and Stabroek markets and even along Regent Street.
Kevin and Natasha (only names given), vend these items along with Danish cookies, walnuts and non-alcoholic champagne on Regent Street during the Christmas season. The pair said that business has been going well for them since they came out to their spot on December 14th.
