how to bargain?

Answer 1

Shop off season now that is how you bargain. Match prices at walmart with your sales ads and clip coupons. Take advantage of krogers 10 for 10 sales and walgreens dollar days.

Answer 2

Anything that costs money can be a bargain. The biggest kept secret is that most every business charges the highest amount so that they can come down in price when a consumer asks. That way you think you are getting a discount. Cell phone companies do this best. "This phone regularly sells for $75 but for you, because I like you, you can get it today for $30." The reason they bring the price down is because you are hesitant. If you just went up and said, I want that phone they will charge you the most because you simply don't care how much things cost.
How to bargain is very easy. Like I said just act hesitant when making a purchase. Let the sales person know you are not sure and need to think about it. Then say, I know I saw this over there cheaper. Sales people are given lots of freedom to make a sale you just have to keep firm on how much you are willing to spend. Let them know the bottom line is you only have $20 in your pocket (for example). That sales person will make calls and do circus tricks to get you that price. As long as they can say, I sold this item to that customer right there, they don't care for how much.

Answer 3

It depends on what you are bargaining about. I wouldn't go into a WalMart and try to bargain down the price of some Pampers, for example.
But if you are talking about bargaining for the price of a car, there is plenty of information in book form and in financial magazines to guide you. Basically, you figure out how much the dealer can hope to make on a car he is trying to sell you. You try to give him a price that you can pay that is in that range. You just don't want to pay too much, something that is out of that range. But you also don't want to try to scalp the dealer too because he's just not going to give in beyond a certain point - he has his costs, too!
Real estate is more complicated. You should get a buyer's agent to represent you in the process if you can find one you trust. Because the job of the real estate broker is always to be on the side of the seller.

Answer 4

to bargain is the same as to haggle. you are given a price and you tell the person the price you will pay. then they should make a counter offer, and you come back with another offer until you come up with an agreeable price.
