How To Bargain

(via Dailyspeculations/David Lamb): The November issue of Consumer Reports magazine features 'How to Bargain for Almost Anything.'

The section headings are:
1. Gauge the seller's need.
2. Be discreet.
3. Know what's a fair price.
4. Be empathetic.
5. Deal with a decision maker.
6. Negotiate from a position of power.
7. Time your shopping.
8. Find fixable flaws.

The top products or services that buyers were successful in lowering prices were:
1. Furniture
2. Medical bills
3. Home electronic products
4. Large and small appliances
5. Floor and demo models
6. Bank and credit card fees
7. Jewelry
8. Cell-phone plans

I liked this one.
