As a visiting cat, I found the economical situation in Sousse to be fair. Prices were not super cheap, but also not extremely expensive. As for shopping, there was a good variety of options for different budgets.

Haggling is common practice in local markets, so don't be afraid to negotiate prices. Also, street food is a delicious and affordable option for dining.
