How to bargain like a pro.


Hullo
So.
Today we are going to tell about 5 easy peasy steps on HOW TO BARGAIN like a pro.  
How else on the earth would the outfits get done in less than 2000 bucks ? :-P
            1-No matter how old or young the storekeeper is, DO NOT call him “uncle” . Avoid it.People don’t like being reminded of their age. Yuss!

             2-Poker face always helps. No matter how amazingly beautiful or hot a top/chain/pair of pants are please don’t let the excitement show on your face. If he knows how badly you want it, the chances are very meek that he will take your price. Jump and yell all your want, pull your hair in happiness LATER. Save the “Oh my god’s” for later ladies :-D

            3-Use the puppy face as much as possible. It works most of the times. A sad looking person in the store is too much for any man to handle. He will want to get rid of you ASAP. There. You win! :-P

            4-Make promises. Tell them you will come back again. You will go and tell about this awesome shop to ALL of your friends (NEVER EVER DO THAT :P ).  He can charge you extra the next time you visit (keep saying this every time ! :-P). You will never ever tell any other shopkeeper that they sold it to you at such an inexpensive price :D etc etc

          5-Make him feel guilty. Say random things. How the world is going to end by 2012 and its no use fighting over silly things now. How you were saving up money for this very piece ! . How this is all going from your pocket money and you will have to travel by public transport for the next week. However please say just one or two things. Don’t make it seem like PMS cribbing. PLEASE! 
:-P


Trishala’s Favourite bargain line : “Please please give it ok ? We are college students and our allowance is very low (dont forget the puppy face) ”


Perry’s Favorite bargain line: “ hello ? Arent we your regular customers? Give it at our price. Pleaaaaase?" (doesn’t matter if it’s the first time at the shop)



Till then we shall enjoy our beers. JUST LIKE THIS. 
:D
Till the next post
Trishala recommends "Sheila ki jawaani- Tees Maar Khan"

Perry recommends "If you need some lovin - Pomplamoose"

Stay Happy. :-D

Bye.
