Kiwis more likely to haggle over prices

New Zealand shoppers are being told they could get a better deal on a lot of items – if they just ask.

While haggling over prices is common practice in many other countries, in New Zealand it is still relatively rare.

While we are often comfortable to negotiate the price of a car, and offer less than the asking price on a house, when it comes to other items, many people are still reluctant to try their luck.
