Shopping in Panama

Yesterday I went out to the electronic store to buy a Bluetooth headset for my laptop, because my girlfriend (mis novia :-), as I've learned today) does not hear me on Skype. Shopping is funny here. When you enter the store you have to leave all bags at the front desk. When you buy something, you have to leave your full address, phone number, credit card number (obviously), and sometimes to show an id (ausweis). When leaving the store a large guy comes to control if you have paid everything you have, after having gone through the security scanner.

Entering the United States is easier ;-)
