When shopping in Doha, just go into a shop and ask 2 questions,

1. What is your rate today?

2. What is your makeup rate?

Then go into a few more shops and you will find that you will get a couple of different rates,depending on the shop.

All you have to do then is pick the best rate or barter with the store owner.

I always carry a calculator with me when shopping, when they give me a price on something I say, 'hang on a minute, MY Calculator says it is xxxxx amount (a lot lower than theirs obviously),and tell them they should use my calculator. That way you will quickly find the Real price that they are prepared to sell the item for.
