    So, first I call Macy's to buy one the their cheapest beds on the black friday sale. The chick that I talk to was actually really---really helpful, told me all the info I needed when looking into a bed she didn't even want me to buy the bed she said it wasn't worth it.

    So the wife and I drive down to the local mattress shop and start laying on beds and fine one we like

    ORIGINALLY THE PRICE WAS 1,600 - Too much for us right now
    REGULAR SALE PRICE WAS 1,150 - Better
    BLACK FRIDAY SALE PRICE 1,000 - Decent

    He saw my Tacoma when I pulled up and asked if I would pick-up and haul it, hell why not...

    SO, PICK-UP PRICE 800.00 - SWEET DONE DEAL

    Then he ran my credit for financing, I know I have good credit. Last time I checked it was 830.... Anyways I told him I have no idea why it wouldn't accept it.

    So finally he tells me I have two choices....

    1. Buy just the top mattress now for 500, then the box spring next time for 300

    2. Take it all right now for $600 flat!!!!

    UHMMMM F%$@ING SOLD BOSS!

    Moral of the story, never walk away with the original price of the stores. They can always work with you. I have a similar story with my cable.

    If you have any stories like this, please share!!

    Well that sucks man, I'm sorry. Maybe try this one with your cable company

    I was tired of my slow internet and wanted to stop service... they tried so hard to get me to stay!

    I got an upgrade to the fastest high speed internet they offered and some extra football channels.

    Im just trying help, maybe ya'll can use these same tactics. GOOD LUCK!
