Always ask bargain for prices never pay full specially now

[AicecreaME]

Now it's time to ask prices to go Lower.
Times like this i go shop or anywhere i always say' it's economic down turn can i get cheaper price.
I allready called to my landlord to make my rent much cheaper.
It's times of economic bad times so now you can ask cheaper prices of anything always.

You are very correct, everybody wants to buy commodities at a very cheap rate but have you ever considered if the cost of production is cheap. We are in a period were there is inflation, high cost of power and fuel and everybody including manufacturers are also feeling the pains. The best thing to do for now is to seek for cheaper alternative of any product you consume. My children are now consuming locally produced food instead of expensive company manufactured baby-food/cereals.I had to move out of my bigger accommodation to a smaller place because I could no longer comfortably afford it. But this doesn't write-off the fact that we should bargain for the best prices. 

Due to inflation, everything got expensive, prices are skyrocketing and the supplies are very low making the whole situation worst. Low quality products before are already expensive as well because of the inflation, for those who doesn't have enough money, they have no choice but eat anything that they can afford, but if you have the money, always go for the nutritional foods and products.

You can never ask for cheap prices anyways even though the economy is down because businesses needs to make profits to ensure their businesses to keep on running. Making their products cheap because the economy is down doesn't make any sense at all.

Calling for cheap house rent from your landlord will only happen if your landlord is trying to consider the economic hardship on you. It's hard for landlords to reduce the house rent of their tenants rather they prefer increasing the house rent as time goes on. The best they can do is to give you some time for you to fix yourself or pack out of their house if you pay up your house rent. The reason why tenant's houses are built by landlords is to take care of them and their families in terms like this when there is economic inflation of goods

This is important thing that you have touch on. The situation now is bringing to the market substandard goods and people buy because of good products are very expensive. Products going into the market don't really fit to be in the market because they are fake and people consume to their body and this is dangerous because it is going to have bad effect to the system. The situation is worse for the poor people who are not able providing adequate care for themselves and family so they consume just what they see.

Bargaining for food and other things nowadays is difficult as they already come at a high price. Only a few landlords will lower their rent rather than increase it unless your landlord has a good heart and takes care of you. Simply approach your landlord and bargain with him; simply tell him the real reason; if he still refuses, we can't do anything because everyone is experiencing this, and we need more money because all of the foods are very expensive now. We can tighten our budgets more and try to work more, like getting side hustles, etc to earn more money.

it must be so, everything must adjust to the circumstances, so as to at least reduce one's burden in terms of economy.
because in an economic situation like this everyone must support and understand each other.
but what you rent is a house or an apartment, and how much rent do you spend for a month.

For us consumers we can easily say this but did this ever approved? No right? It's not that all retailers have no soul. They do also think of their consumers but if they will let their emotions consume them then they will also be the one that will suffer at the end because they are also buying their stocks at a not so friendly price.

We should only understand that this was normal and there are still times that the price are going to normalize again. We just need to wait and learn what we can do in order to survive. Maybe our local government can do something. They can give some cash assistance or goods but let us hope this doesn't make the situation worse. You know, extra printing of cash is also bad.

The high cost of goods and services is everywhere. The world is experiencing bad economy as inflation continues to damage the standard of our living. You asking for cheaper prices from sellers is not bad but will they accept to reduce price since they too will claim they are also hit by the inflation. Everybody is looking for a way to make profit. Most landlords are even increasing rents and you are talking of begging yours to reduce it. You must have a good landlord if he agrees to reduce rent for you.

[bakasabo]

Or the place he is renting is horrible and he is the only one who agrees to live there. That is why landlord gives him that discount. It will always be like that, that people wont be able to afford to buy their own place to live. There will be always those who rent. If I was his landlord, I would not give him that discount, but find another person who will rent it for full price. It is ok to ask for a better price once, maybe few times. But we are not on the market, and asking bargain every time and everywhere, I think is wrong or inacceptable.

Governments are regulators and has an SRP to implement for most of our commodities and basic needs. They can subsidize those products that are increasing and like non stop price hikes that's happen.

They can apply this and work on it for the fuel prices. Oil products have been the worst in terms of price hikes because it has non stoply increasing and if it's going to roll back, they're lesser than what has been the increased price.

And the sad thing about this is that you can't do what OP is suggesting and to ask for a bargain price, it doesn't go like that for products like oil or petroleum.

Prices are rising for everything due to inflation and it takes some time for everyone to get used to the new conditions, prices for products and services rise in the first place, and salaries will even out later, so you need to survive this difficult period and everything will work out. As for the rent, it is necessary to talk to the landlord, explain the situation and find a way out.

[Cryptomultiplier]

It would be quite difficult fór one to bargain for everything including the landlord rent, seeing that the recession is affecting every gender and business altogether. For cases where the bargain for a certain goods is not feasible and the option of getting another is a big constraint, what would one do if not to succumb to the price or forgo such an expense at the moment.
I always try to bargain the prices of what I want to buy or pay for because it is after paying and I find out am broke or have bought what I could easily have delayed its gratification, the problem of how to survive onward is often what becomes the case.

[Reid]

Is that true? They are running a business and if they are receiving the supplies at an expensive price then you won't getting cheaper at all even if you ask.
I just bought something recently and it's my common necessity, so I know the price. It did increase but I never ask for a bargain because I know about the economic decline.
You should also consider that you might be cutting off the profits of those who are trying to survive from all this problem. If you have the money, then just buy it with the given price especially if it's locally produced.

I disagree with the word anything because you can't, yes some places you can negotiate and reduce the price but most of the basic needs like groceries, veggies, meat are fixed price everywhere even if its a roadside shop the price is fixed.

Yes , and these fixed prices has something to do eith utilities, rent of the building where market is placed, electricity they are using to make customers comfortable, while they are busy bargaining. Things has state of appropriateness do let us all be mindful.

If you guys are not that needy, just buy that thing in particular as it is. Let those who are in need to bargain for it.

I am not that rich enough to consider that I don't really see the price tag while I am buying something and I do even if I am having million dollar liquid cash in my bank account.

Let's imagine where we can bargain the local market for the sake while buying something like vegetables or fruits from a small scale farmer which is not really beneficial for us as well as the seller butnwe simply pay blindly for mac products whatever they set the price.

[wiss19]

I allready called to my landlord to make my rent much cheaper.

I have two questions:
1) What country do you live in? (I don't expect an answer, but I feel the need to ask)
2) Did your landlord tell you to go fuck yourself?

The reason I inquired about where you live is because in certain countries--far, far away from where I live--haggling is part of the culture.  If anyone in the US just asked their landlord to lower their rent because they were trying to get a cheaper rate, it'd pretty much be impossible.  Renters usually sign a lease when they rent, and any negotiations have to be done before it's signed, not when the renter suddenly feels like they're being overcharged.

But hey, as they say, you do you.  When you live in a country where most things are purchased at big box retailers or online, it's not feasible to do anything but pinch pennies through budgeting and buying smart.

I do live in a nation when haggling is part of the culture for sure, but not rent. I mean like when you are buying a big thing, let’s say a rug, or like a sheep or something, I don't know what would be ok if you haggled, because there are "rural" areas here as well, imagine the hillbilly corn farmer of your nation instead of New York. In those places people do haggle and even there it’s not rent.

However, the more west you go, there are more "cities" here and here you can't haggle for anything, not even a bottle of water, everything has a price and you pay that and you move on. Instead of trying to lower the cost of what I buy, I increase my income and that gives better results.

You really have a point. Most of the time, we bargain with those small store owners and don't think they are only earning a low profit. Most of the time, when we go to big stores, we still even give tips. But for the recession right now, let's just help each other as we need food and more money to survive. Those locally produced foods and items are less expensive than those in the mall, so we should buy from them; we will benefit, and they will also benefit from it.

We cannot be selfish by imposing our desire to reduce prices in this case because those affected by current Inflation are not only us but everyone and of course even if we really want this to force others to reduce prices clearly cannot be imitated.
Actually, this is not wrong but we must also be aware that things like this are actually a bit of a waste of time and of course make other people a little less respect for ourselves. But this is just my opinion because this kind of action in my opinion is a bit annoying if I am in a bargained position

[trendcoin]

We are in a period of increasing recession expectations. In such periods, demand decreases in the markets and real buyers become stronger. The strong get what they want in every market. I think if we enter a real recession, we can get a good opportunity to buy goods and we should not hesitate to bargain in such a period. Also, I think bargaining is a culture that should continue even in periods when there is no risk of recession...

[Maestro75]

People will tell you that whatever decreases in demand during recession will not be food stuffs because people must eat whether the situation is fine or not. We get to find people on the streets begging for food, and nothing else. It is reasonable because everyone want to stay alive and if they do not have money for food, begging becomes an option for them. No one begs you on the streets for money to buy gadgets or cars but food. Food demand does not decrease.

Bargaining in buying and selling is not a bad thing, it is normal but it will depend on the item you buy as well as where you buy it. We can't bargain while shopping in the supermarket or drinking a cup of coffee. In OP's case, I don't think it's appropriate since we're all going through the same crisis. If our situation is too difficult, we can ask the landlord to consider extending us to next month for a reasonable payment rather than asking them to reduce the price.

I saw a comment from OP, that he even bargained for 1 coffee, this is unacceptable, if I were the shop owner, I would kick him out of my shop. When inflation comes, spend only what is really needed and try to do more to make more money than bargain.

[Smartvirus]

It's normal to bargain but, what do you do when you go to shopping outlets where the prices of there commodities are fixed?
Do you still bargain there or you buy full price? Or you get to walk away as buying full price would be against your idea. Perhaps you would ask for a discount and get rejected then, you walk away.

The point is, a merchant won't sell a product at a lose, he or she must be on profit to be able to release that product on sale at a price. Which means, the merchant must be satisfied of what your offering. Your bargaining just ensures your not very much cheated or given a good deal at a bad price.
