Sydneyside traders must be more desperate. That's far from my recollection of our research forays into Melburnian shops.

hevs

We haggled for our car and got 5 grand off the price!!
$200 off the big fridge thing, and the same off the washing machine. You can do it everywhere, you just gotta be cheeky!
oooppss, but don't try it in big dubbya, target etc, THEY don't like it much

Was this in Good Guys?

hevs

oooo yeah, forgot, saved $300 at good guys for my stove!!!

Good guys don't sell cars, but a nice man at Ferntree gully Nissan did that one

The fridge was in "hardly Normal"
The w/m in Mega mart.....

Now you all know where i shop, anything else

you dont always get it, but it dont hurt to try. when we bought the car it was easy. we agreed a price, then hummed and hawwed, then said we would think about it. he nearly pulled my door off to offer me another $500 discount. i knew i had him then. i was gonna ask for his jacket, but i tought that was taking it a bit too far
i tried it in bunnings and they looked at me as if i was mental i was gonna show them my certificate to prove it

oh Ive been told you can haggle at bing lees too but u would need to go some. their prices are through the roof to start with.:scared:
