We all visit markets for shopping and for other stuffs. Have you ever come across the situation that a shopkeeper ever tried to sell you a product with a high price. So did you brought a product for high price or started bargaining? Being living in India, its our tradition to bargain. So sometimes i bargain when i feels that the price of a product is higher then it would have to be.

Not too many shops around here where bargaining is an option. Most of our stores are larger chain stores and the prices are set by the corporate offices. There are a few consignment shops with a little room for negotiations but most of them have been hit hard by current fiancial situation and have closed up.

I sucessfuly bargained on the price of cheese at a market stall and got it cheaper than tescos. I haven't bargained in a store yet but when I come to spend £100+ on electricals or white goods I will give it a go.

Bargaining is a talent and i lack it....I am not good at bargaining though i try it....But if i go out with my wife i know i am in a no win no loss situation...as she bargains and saves money for me,,,but at the same time she also does a lot of shopping to nullify that.....

well leo i never did that but i think people must do so if we feel the price is too high^^ anyway i dont have the guts to do so ahah i would be so embarassed but is true many times we find things so expensive and it doesnt even worth that much money. anyway you should be proud bcs you fight for your rights as a costumer^^ also i heard that in morocco people there like that costumers bargain ahah^^ so lets go to morocco and do so and take things more cheap ahah^^
