Salim's Stall

Open each day at the wholesaler

Every morning begins with stock and pricing. Compare wholesale cost, expected customers, the price next door, and the number of days before an item spoils, then buy only what the stall can sell without starving the monthly budget.

The tested quick run opened with AED 450 in cash and AED 420 due at month end. Dates cost AED 11 per pack, the suggested tag was AED 24, and the tutorial expected about six customers while warning that the stock would spoil after three days.

Haggle without losing the margin

Customers arrive with different priorities and budgets. Use the arrow keys to adjust an offer, Enter to ask your price, K to accept, B to ask about budget, or S to send the customer away when the deal no longer works.

The stall expands from dates into spices, fabric, and other goods. VAT, spoilage, sandstorms, inflation, and changing opportunities make the same price strategy unreliable from one month to the next.

Turn daily trade into a home

The long objective is to purchase the rented family home one share at a time. Each share lowers rent, but cash also needs to cover family needs, emergency savings, and choices involving loans, takaful, qard hasan, mudaraba, and diminishing musharakah.

Choose the five-share quick game for a roughly fifty-minute introduction or the twenty-share full game for the complete arc. Monthly report cards identify the three most important decisions, and the ending can export a record of choices and consequences.

Creator's description

The quick game began on Day 1 with AED 450 cash, AED 420 due at month end, an empty stall, and a savings jar locked until day five. The wholesaler offered dates at AED 11 with a suggested AED 24 tag and a three-day spoilage window, then required at least one pack before opening.
