Bargaining is such a pain in the butt, especially when you don't know how to speak the language. It's so disappointing because they don't seem interested in bargaining, although you know they're ripping you off. And then when they give you an outrageous price, you wince in shock, give a lower price, and then they're just like "shove off." Well, I will, and you'll get what comeuppance. Haha not to sound spiteful or anything; I'm just frustrated at the bargaining, or failure thereof, and I believe people's actions will catch up with them, whether good or bad.
Thank you very much to Linda today for bargaining a shirt for me this afternoon. Got it to 85k from 100+k? I would have quit a long time ago, but she was up for it. (: It wasn't even that nice a shirt, although I'd rather not wear my nice shirts here, cause they're going to get screwed up. I'm going to just buy a set of cheap clothes for Vietnam. Hahaha i don't even know if i can get it for as cheap as I do in the US... $5/shirt? :P
