Shopping in Chefchaouen, Morocco
A Souvenir Shoppers' dream

From Anouk Zijlma, About.com

If you like trinkets and souvenirs, you'll love what's on offer in Chefchaouen. The shopkeepers are laid back and the bargaining is easy.

Chefchaouen is a dream to shop in especially if you're on a budget. There are loads of little stylish handbags, lampshades and loose cotton clothes to enjoy. If you're looking for a carpet or something more specific, you'd be better off shopping in Fes or Marrakech. Shopkeepers in Chefchaouen were very laid back and I enjoyed the fact that their starting prices were much more reasonable than those I was ever offered in Marrakech. So, if your bargaining skills aren't too sharp (mine are decidedly not), Chefchaouen is a good place to shop.
