 The aisles of Best Buy, Home Depot, and other retail stores are beginning to look more like a Turkish bazaar. Haggling is back, baby, at least based on some initial reports we've heard. People are talking about being able to say to walk into a retail store and say to sales people, "Hmm, I like, but it's a little more than I was hoping to pay. Can't you do any better on the price?" It seems the salesmen have some wiggle room on the price, especially if you opt for the extended warranty package. I'm helping out a reporter at a large publication, so if this has happened to you and you're willing to share your story on the record, drop me a line at ben@consumerist.com or leave a comment along with your contact info.
