Dress Dilemma

So I put a deposit on my dress on Saturday at Burton's but b/c I am on a budget I reached out to other vendors to see what they are charging. Three of them came in $80+ less... should I call and see if Burton's will lower the price? I don't want to sacrifice future service with them b/c I am penny pinching! What would you do?

Re: Dress Dilemma

I would definitely let Burton's know that 3 other places are willing to lower the price. It can't hurt to try.

Definitely! The worst they could say is no.

$80 isn't penny pinching. Everyone haggles!

Re: Dress Dilemma

Thanks for the advice - I will call Burton's tomorrow and see if I can get the price down.

Nadia - I told you I wouldn't wear something similar to yours! No way would I steal your thunder!

Re: Dress Dilemma

In the end, they want to keep your business. I would let them know, I'm sure they should meet or beat the price.

$80 isn't too much- as long as you are polite and don't get nasty it'll be ok- doesn't hurt to ask. Even if they don't $80 isn't too much higher- good luck tho!!
