The Haggle-Meister

Would you take a dollar? No. Okay. Thanks. Would you take a fifty-cent piece? No. Okay. Thanks. Would you take a quarter? No. Okay. Thanks. The haggler has no idea how to haggle really, the vendor thinks, not realizing she gets more things for a dollar, a fifty cent piece and a quarter than anyone else in the world. The buyer leaves with her dollar intact. There is another garage sale two houses down, right? Would you take a dollar? No. Okay. Thanks. Would you take a fifty-cent piece? No. Okay. Thanks. Would you take a quarter? Yes. Sure. Thank you very much! I love it!
