The best items to haggle over!
The listed price isn’t always the price you have to pay. Financial experts have put together a list of the best things to haggle for…
- Satellite and cable TV service. Ask for the current promotion.
- Real estate commissions.
- Healthcare. Sometimes they’ll cut you a deal if you pay cash.
- Jewelry. The retail markup on jewelry is huge…
- Furniture.
- Gym memberships. There’s a lot of competition, So you can often get them to do a special deal.
- Cruise tickets. Wait until the last minute and score big on whatever still isn’t booked.
- Credit card rates. Especially if you have good credit.
- Mattresses. Except for Tempur-Pedic, most brands have huge retail markups.
- Rent. Especially if you’re renewing a lease and you start negotiating a few months in advance, you can get a much better deal than just waiting for that letter in the mail.
- Back taxes. You can make a settlement deal under the right circumstances. Basically, you have to make the IRS believe they’ll never get the full amount back. So it’s only for people who are already a few years delinquent. (Business Insider)
