yeah i very rarely ask to get a better price unless I think they will say no. usually I just look and if its expensive I move on to the next one. As far as book prices-sometimes if they have tons and they are talking about moving then i will offer a flat rate little less than the total by the piece-most of the time if its $.25 I don't bargain, if its $.50 and there are more than a boxful then I ask if they will take 3 for $1-most of the time they do. But that's because I buy at least $10 worth so I don't nickle and dime. One yard-sale they sold them for $.05 each but they were old zebra historical romances that no one wants. I still read them.
I usually work weekends but this sat I wanted off because of a yardsale that this organization puts on-they didn't set up yesterday. this is the 3rd time they did this. so next sat I may have to work so I wont be able to make it. My work has been really annoying with overtime being mandatory even if there is nothing to do. So hopefully I wont be called up to work next Saturday or I can put in for a half day and get out by 12 but by then it will be too late. I learned along time ago that if I want to find newer books I need to go early and same with clothing in latest fashions. So I was mad about them not being open but we instead went into maine and followed side roads so it wasn't a wash. Maybe I will ask it to rain next Sat. But anyways I just enjoy site seeing but now I am going to go finish reading a book
