Sometimes a little impulse is good.
I had seen this pre-owned beauty in the window a couple of weeks ago. The asking price was abit high. Then last week, there was a slight reduction on the price tag and I thought to myself, that's a good sign. And yesterday I walked in with a much lower price in my head. After chatting up with the sales manager, I gave him my price and he surprised me with a yes if I took it home there and then.
My mind raced - Should i actually get it?
Having just gotten married over the weekend, my 2013 budget's been basically flatten but its also my wife's birthday today and I wanted to gift her something special, and this guy's given me a good price. Bite the bullet and put this as part of the wedding expenses : )
Needless to say.....Wife is HAPPY
