No oranges I'm afraid! Weren't you listening to my welcoming speech? This is no Imerialist palace of decadence!

How about a mystery tin? Only 6 Roubles to you comrade!

6 Roubles? That's absurd! What if it's just dog food in the tin?

I think I'll take my hard-earned dollars over to the Capitalist Shop http://www.bbc.co.uk/h2g2/guide/A598953 .

At least they understand the value of hard currency!
