My Mommie is a good bargainer.....

My Mom has been living in this country for over 25 years now. And until yesterday, it never occured to me how chistled her local bargaining skills were. We were at a local bazaar looking at clothes and I kind of liked something and my Mom bargained her way into getting the price she wanted. Her techniques varied from initial disinterest in the product to more vehement denial of seeing such a ridulous price anywhere else to seeming "trust" in the salesman into giving us a good deal.

Hmm, I thought I knew what popular talents in this world were until I saw my Mom bargain today....I guess that's my new mission - to learn the local lingo and know how to bargain with the local bazaar-fellas.
