Never hurts to ask...

[chaotic_nipple]

Back in my jack-booted thug Army days, I made it a habit to always ask merchants if they had a military discount, because hey, every little bit helps. Now, Alas, I can't do that any more, but just for amusement, I'll make up random discounts to ask for. Yesterdays was the "Cool person's discount", which has never worked before, but this time the clerk at the used book store laughed, said "Why not?" and knocked a dollar off of the 15 dollar price tag for my purchase. Truly, a victory for cool people everywhere. :-)

Actually it never hurts to ask for a discount. I do like the touch of giving it a 'name'. I will have to remember that aspect.
