Instruct the sales assistants to get somewhere in the room and 'set up shop'. Customers go shopping in the shopping mall. (That is,visit the sales assistants in their shops). Sales assistants must try to sell as much of their product as possible.

Note: All participants must constantly keep track of how much money they have. Variation: All participants are sales assistants and customers simultaneously. All participants can buy other items (from anyone) and sell their one product (to anyone). Other Games Best Friends Cops and Robbers Do you know them?
