Growing up in Lebanon, we all went to the little shops under our houses or in our villages, and we all eagerly held our money to buy our junk food. Here are the 8 levels of coolness at a Lebanese dekkene, starting from the bottom.

Yes, it was a sad time and you spent yesterday's 5,000 on fireworks. It's Albeni or "tlet 2alwein"  ice cream for you.

2) 750 LL

Not too bad… for a Pampa.

3) 1,000 LL

You're at an average spend level. Go all out on a Twix.

4) 1,500 LL

Yes, you are escalating, but there is a tradeoff: a KitKat AND a bag of Fantasia or a sumptuous Crunch with a 250 L.L. coming back to you?

5) 1,750 LL

You are about to be teleported to an island in Paradise. Under the coconut groves (the entrance to your building), you will be enjoying a Bounty and a tropical-flavored Maccaw.

6) 2,000 LL
