Asking for a discount like dad

Monday, March 3.  Hey all!  Another great day.  I decided that I would go shopping today, one to look for a new suit (who couldn't use a new suit, especially if you teach golf, right?), and two to take a look at what's out there as far as fedoras.  So off I went to Twelve Oaks Mall, specifically Nordstrom's because it's the best department store for sure.

Found some nice fabric to make suits but so expensive!  $1400 and up!  I better go to Thailand to cut one.  Cheaper and better fitting!  By the way, I think I'm going to make a trip to Thailand so that I can get more hands on with the hat business.  I gotta get it going.  I'll keep you posted as to when I might go.  It'll be soon because I want to go before golf gets too busy.

Bought two COOL fedoras though, and they'll be arriving by mail on Wednesday hopefully.  They are exactly what I'm looking for as far as shape and design.  I'll post pictures when I get them.  I'm getting super amped about it!

Lastly, for the new thing today, I thought I'd ask for a discount at a store I have no business asking for one, Banana Republic.  I found a nice sport coat on sale.  After trying it on and asking two sales people if it fit right, I just outright asked for more money off on it.  I tried to negotiate and say the right things.  A little more diplomatically than my dad would be.  Alas they said no, but I did get them to think about it!  Maybe my next task will be to actually get a discount on something for no reason, or to get them to throw some free stuff with it.  Anyway, it was fun trying and I got a nice sport coat anyway!

Peace to all of you.  Have a good night or day wherever you are, I'm going bowling!  See ya!
