How much did they originally offer you the rug for?

We are going to Turkey in 3 weeks and also wanted to buy a rug. Not sure what percentage of the original price you should be shooting to spend in the final price. Thoughts on that?

Also, did you go to any of the other markets to shop? Ive heard there are others with great rug shops other than the gran bazaar but not sure which ones....

you could also use roma tomatoes for the salsa and squeeze out the seeds and juice before dicing. this always helps the liquidity of a salsa. not to mention, the longer the salsa sits, the more flavorful. this will allow you let it sit longer.
