margate sumwear by the sea

Is this a dieing art or do people still do it ?

Do you do it or not do it ?

Do you think its ok to do or do you think its rong ?

I've just found and got my self 2 new Hawaiian shirts and thanks to my haggling skills i paid not £25 for them both but £15 for them both.

Oh Seeside! Good work on those shirts. Will they feature on some photos soon?

Erm, no I can't say I have tried haggling recently. It's not wrong it's just not something I have done or do.

it can work in a lot of places depends what you see as a deal

People walk in to shops say they want a certain item but they have seen it somewhere cheaper can they match the price or say you want to buy something and tell them you dont want to pay delivery. Years ago you could just get a.discount by saying you was paying cash

I haggle on everything I can and get as many freebies as I can get. I also ask for stuff because lots of people get awkward about saying no.

Asking for free upgrades and free things or haggling on the price can only be a winner for you. The worst they can say is no.

Haggling I only do when I’m on holidays for some reason. But I’m a champion at complaining when things go wrong and have probably saved myself over £400 so far this year
