Haggling

I enjoy haggling for a better deal; The Lady doesn't.


A good quote on haggling, from this weekend's paper
(Mike O’Connor's “Back Chat” column, p. 54, Courier-Mail, QWeekend section):

“Haggling, alas, has never been one of my strengths. As a result of my refusal to bargain in places like Bangkok, I have probably been ripped off to the tune of at least $20 by people who earn less in a year than I earn in a week.”

I'm with the lady on this one. And the back chat quote is funny.
