    Salep from a street vendor. If they do it in summer.

    Everything you can think of - chances are it’s cheaper than here

    lol Why are you on OZB? Surely you know the cost of the flight and accommodation negates any bargains you might find? Enjoy the experience and get off your devices.

    Earpods and smart watches. Based on dollar, it is surprisingly cheaper in turkey.

    Also get turkish snacks, sweets, baklava, desserts and delights.

    And try shisha and apple tea in a cafe in probably old istanbul.

    I hear they are famous for their hand made artisanal shoes? I get mine from Etsy (Aintaps) and I know there are heaps of shoemakers in Turkey.

    Fake rolex

  • rappy68 on 26/06/2023 - 17:15

    I'd buy:
    Carpets or even a prayer rug (weight can be an issue)
    Bowls or plate can be impressive though fragile
    Ornate tiles, plates or porcelain eyes are probably better options
    Scarfs/kaftans make good gifts for mums and co
    Buy a sporting team flag if you go to a match eg:Istanbul's - Besitas soccer club flag for the wall

    Buy some tasty cat food and give it to the friendly local kitties.

  • pixpotato on 27/06/2023 - 07:32

    Have you tried Adna Kebabs or the mussels with rice?

  • sashatheman on 27/06/2023 - 08:36

    Get a hair transplant and new teeth put in. Thats what I see people on tik tok doing in turkey

  • ThePutz on 27/06/2023 - 10:45

    If I was in Turkey I'd be buying a ticket out of Turkey.

  • Flyingbeast on 27/06/2023 - 11:23

    If you buy Turkish google storage do you still get 10% cashback off any google store AU purchases?
    This is the running offer for Google AU 2tb storage.

    Surprised no one has yet suggested $400k USD of property https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/784046

  • lainey13 on 28/06/2023 - 10:25

    Don't buy that colour changing jewelry it's all fake

  • chino8826 on 28/06/2023 - 15:03

    I came back last week from Champions League final, bought 10 kgs of spices (Ottoman, Sumac, Meatball, Pul Biber, Paprika, Chilli Flake), 10 kgs of Turkish Delight (220 lira a kilo is a good price). Should have bought some gift card but couldnt find it anywhere in Istanbul.

  • ozbob on 29/06/2023 - 12:46

    Surprised no one said Lamb yet - you'll get regional specialties almost everywhere.
    Try char grilled Kuşbaşı (cubed grilled meat), iskender kebab, Ayran (yogurt drink), Turkish tea (çay), and su böreği (best with cheese).
