| Danielle | I like your new anorak, it looks really expensive, where did you get it - in that upscale sports shop in the mall ? |
| Russell | Well thanks, but no I didn't. I got it in the market. |
| Danielle | How much did you pay for it ? |
| Russell | Not as much as the man asked for. He wanted $45. |
| Danielle | That would have been a bit steep, it's almost the shop price. |
| Russell | I know, but I haggled him down to $25, so I reckon I've got a bit of a bargain. |
| Explanation : |
| If you haggle, you argue about something before reaching an agreement, especially about the cost of something that you are buying. |
| Example : Ella showed her the best places to go for a good buy, and taught her how to haggle with used furniture dealers .... |
