A few pieces of advice
Do your research -- know what services/products cost them. Show them you know your stuff.
Know your options - so you know how much you should be willing to give.
Ask - you can't get a better price if you don't ask. And, don't be afraid to mention the price you want (although be sure it is not at an insulting level)
Be creative - look for ways to get a better deal than just a one-dimensial dialogue. In cars, they are looking to make money on finacing, your trade-in and options (not just the car). On hotels, they are looking to make money on group food/beverage and activites not just rooms. Entertainers are interested in the quality of the crowd as future customers and not just he one gig - etc.

I don't know about trips, but I do about cars. You have to be wiling to state what you want to pay and then be able to walk away. Don't spend hours talking about price. Spend no more than 45 minutes and then get up and walk away by saying you have my number if you change your mind. Always go to a dealership a few days before the end of the month, as they like to make a quota each month. If you can wait until October, November, or December the deals are even better.
When you decide what make and model you want, find out the invoice price and do not pay any more than that for the car. You should be able to get any car at invoice if you are willing to wait 2-3 days before closng the deal. Going tp 2-3 different dealerships can help also to get the best deal.
Another thing you need to know is how good your credit is if you are planning on financing. Financing can be bargained as well. If the offer you 7%, you can probably get 6%. Do not close the deal until you know price and financing.

one is to not show interest so the person who is trying to sell you what ever will try to lower the price and convenes you to buy it........the one I use the most is manipulation it usually works
