Default Haggle Prices

Pretty much everything that we buy these days we can haggle with the prices to save a bit here and there. Now I know we can't do this with everything that we want and need but there are things that we can.

When buying appliances haggle with the seller and see about getting a price change. The worst thing that your gonna hear is no and then you can also go elsewhere and possibly haggle for a lower price there.

When buying a house or a car, you haggled right, this is the best way to get what you need at a lower price. I always do this when I am shopping at flea markets, yard sales and more.

Most places and people are willing to take a lower price to make a sale. So it is always worth the attempt to get a lower price for what ever your shopping for.

Now I don't recommend walking into a store and grabbing a bunch of groceries or something like that and try to haggle with the cashier to get a price reduction. That doesn't work unless you have coupons.

Default Re: Haggle Prices

I did indeed haggle for my Jeep Liberty and worked, well a little anyhow. They knocked $300.00 off of their asking price and it was already well below book value so i did get a great deal.

I don't mind haggling at all. I need to save every penny I can!
