Secrets of a Bargain Hunter
By Suzanne C. Ryan
Boston Globe, May 8, 2008
The economy is rocky and consumers are leery about parting with their
cash. But that doesn't mean the budget-minded are swearing off spending
entirely. Real style mavens always manage to find bargains, because
they've developed strategies for getting the best price on whatever
they're shopping for, be it Italian leather shoes or wenge nesting
tables. When are the best sales? When is it OK to negotiate with a
salesperson? We asked three stylish Bostonians for their best
bargain-hunting tips.
