Bargaining

Ever wonder if your parents are the only crazy ones for discounts. Don't worry, my parents will litterally drive for miles for a deal even though the cost in gas would cover the cost of buying at the local supermarket. Desi's will always look for discounts. You know how in the Middle East every price is negotiable, desi's somehow assume its the same way here in America too. They think that they negotiate set prices, and the sellers are like ...no...this price is non negotiable....but theyll still try to bargain. They think tat they are all experts of everything, like they can look at something and asses its price and try to negotiate the seller into bringing it down for them. this almost never works, but does that stop them from trying every single time...no. and these negotiations rent a matter of a few minutes, but long agonizing hours that basically take up all your time in one shop! Desi parents when will they learn?
Translation: aunty you should at least buy it now! You made me bargain this down at least 90% its basically free!
