Buying Clothes for Eid

Every Eid, Egyptians go shopping ahead of time to have new clothes to wear for the holiday. It is also a chance to do an annual (or bi-annual if you do it for both Eids) "spring-cleaning", getting out with the old and in with the new, not just clothing, but bedsheets, towels, etc. The below are scenes from downtown Cairo Pre-Eid Shopping.
