There’s always a time and place to bargain. Small independent stores, specialty shops, discount warehouses, and of course flea markets are ideal places to bargain. Right before closing time, at the end of the day when shopkeepers are ready to go home is the best time. In the case of a temporary market, the last day would be your best bet since merchants would need to sell their stock or they’d have to pay to ship it.
Bargaining can also be used in business transactions, especially when it comes to the real estate market. According to askmen.com, “investors looking to buy a property are generally expected to haggle, as the owner usually puts the price tag way over the lowest price they’d accept.”
