That's when I wish I had a man around again. I feel so akward having to

I just asked, regarding a new sliding door in the LR and I'm sitting here
with a red face and sweating and that was over the phone. LOL
He will get back to me he said. He just replaced the window's in
my condo now I'm working on the door. I didn't ask for a discount
on the window's because two quotes were the same. However between
two contractors this one was $600.00 more for the door. I like these guys, they did an awsome job on the windorws and were so nice.
It took me from 9:00 am this morning to get the courage up to make the call. I know it's silly but it makes me feel so uncomfortable. Hopefully I get something off because that door is so expensive.
I'm glad that's over with now to wait for a new price. I'll be mortified
if I don't get anything off. |
You shouldn't feel bad about it at all!!! I work for the corporate headquarters of a paint company, and people ask for discounts all the time. When you have a huge project, it never hurts to ask!!!
