Some customers just don’t know when to stop pushing.

What would you do if a customer kept asking for a discount? Would you comply, or would you refuse?

This man has a regular customer who keeps asking for discounts even though he always tells him “no.”

Finally, he agreed to “do anything” about the price.

Read the full story below to see what he did.

My customer was always asking for a discount

I’ve always told him no and that “I already gave you a fair price.”

He always asks and I’ve asked him not to, too many times.

This man was asked by his customer if he could do anything about the price.

The other day, he asked if we could do anything about the price. This was when I handed him the receipt.

And I said, “Sure, let me rewrite the receipt.“

He rewrote the customer’s receipt to add 10% more of the price.

I went to my truck and quickly rewrote it for 10% higher and took it back to him.

He looked at me like I was crazy.

I told him, “You asked if I could do anything about it, and that’s all I can do.”

He asked for the original receipt and quickly paid that one.

That was a clever way to get the customer to agree to the original price!
