I inquired about the pull-ups in the bin because they had been opened and taped with packing tape.  I thought perhaps I could get them to mark down the pull-ups since someone had opened them.  At first the lady told me that they weren&#8217;t going to mark them [...]<p>Post from: <a href="http://www.blisstree.com/thriftymommy">Thrifty Mommy</a></p>

<p>I inquired about the pull-ups in the bin because they had been opened and taped with packing tape.  I thought perhaps I could get them to mark down the pull-ups since someone had opened them.  At first the lady told me that they weren&#8217;t going to mark them down and then a few moments later she came back to me and said that they would mark them half price. </p>
<p>The original price of the pull-ups was $10.  They marked them down to $5 and then I asked if they accepted manufacturer&#8217;s coupons.  The cashier said that they did so I put my stuff down and went out to the car to get my $1.50 coupon.  I ended up paying $3.50 for the package.  Sometimes it pays to ask.</p>
<p><strong>Has asking for a discount ever paid off for you?</strong></p>
