Luxury US department store chain Nordstrom is leaving social media users in disbelief for listing a jhola bag at an exorbitant price on its website. A traditional Indian jhola, the shoulder cloth bag known for its simplicity and thriftiness, easily available at roadside stalls in India, which are sold at minimal or much cheaper prices, was seen being sold at Nordstrom's website for a jaw-dropping USD 48 (approximately INR 4,228). “What in the name of scam is this!! Jhola being sold at a premium department store Nordstrom for $48! I’m a homesick person but even I haven’t reached these levels of nostalgia,” wrote an X user along with the screenshot of the bag, listed as ‘Indian Souvenir Bag.’ The post soon went viral, triggering hilarious reactions among desis.
