Don't you be dissin my mother. She still brings over coupons and free samples to my house whenever she visits.
My wife and I are big fans of weekly flyers and coupons. In the long run we have saved quite some money, especially on diapers. In the long run, a combination of coupons and sales can save a lot.
I don't negotiate on price though. But, if I don't like it for any single reason, I will return it. And God knows how many products I've returned. One time I bought a laptop at Staples and I made sure to ask for the return policy because they wanted me to apply for a credit and I would not have the physical card should I decide to return the product. . After 14 days, I decided to return it because I wanted to build two desktop instead. Summary:
CSR: You wan't to return this ? (like no energy at all )
Me : Yes.
CSR: Do you have the credit card with you?
Me: No, but I have the temporary card number.
CSR: I cannot refund you on the credit card or cash then. All I can give you is gift cards.
Me: EXCUSE ME??? YOU MUST BE KIDDING RIGHT? Because your manager did not say this when I was buying it. Call your manager please.
Manager: We can do a refund.
