The Recession Turns Shoppers into Negotiators

Great article on TIME.com about how the recession is turning shoppers into negotiators.

Interesting fact from the article:  “According to the consulting firm America’s Research Group, in October, 56% of consumers said they had recently tried to negotiate at retail outlets other than car dealerships. Of those hagglers, 50% got deals. When the company repeated the survey in May, 72% of consumers said they had tried to haggle, and a stunning 80% were successful.”

The last price time I had checked the price for the Harmony One Remote  it was $300.   Best Buy was on our way home and I wanted to check in to see if it had gone down.  After asking three  Best Buy Employees where the touch screen remotes were I finally found myself in digital heaven. The list price was $250.  I quickly searched ‘Harmony One Prices’ on my Blackberry and found it online at the Apple store for $199 and at NewEgg.com for $189.  Best Buy is so desperate for you to buy their stuff they will usually price match.

I heart Canon. They make the BEST cameras. My camera recently got stolen and my brother helped me replace it with a PowerShot SD780IS.

You can still get a great camera and negotiate the best price. Here’s how you can negotiate. First, figure out your feature list. Read the rest of this entry »

I heart NYC

I heart NYC

My relatives were visiting this past weekend and before they left they wanted to purchase souvenirs for their family back home. We walked into an overpriced souvenir shop and started looking at I <3 NY hats/mugs/key chains. My relatives had bought several of the same items. They had bought 5 key chains, a few shirts, and some mugs (approximately $75 worth of NYC knick knacks). We got a free key chain and free shirt out of it. Read the rest of this entry »
