Should you wish to cash a dollar at the bank, you might receive 10 lei, perhaps nine or what the rate of the day is, but on the black market probably, 35 lei. A pound of sugar, if you could get it, might be as much as 30 lei. Milk is only available ishes it for children up wane year of age and there is duty charged even on presents taken Into the country.
