Hey, Aimz. You can still barter. Like at a garden centre when they are closing and some plants look a little ragged. I have seen people barter at Sears for appliances with the teeniest scratch or a reduction if they buy multiple appliances at once: fridge + stove + dishwasher.
Or even barter on cars -- they won't give the car for free, but the time spent "haggling" with the dealership can knock off some of the stupid add ons they want for the price of the car (never pay predelivery inspection cost -- this is their job to inspect the cars coming into their dealership and we should not have to pay for it.)

Ha, point taken Shwa Girl. When I said barter, I meant exchanging one good for another and not involving money at all; but definitely, you can still haggle to bring the price down, like you mentioned, at car dealerships and the like.

The cashier probably misunderstood the global thing... Loblaws uses "global payments" for their debit and credit payments and the last few issues have had to do with a global payments issue rather than a loblaws issue... Super annoying! I have worked through all of the technical difficulties the last few months and believe me it is a nightmare for both customers and staff!

i had a dream about this! LOL
the machine wouldn't accept my mastercard and between my dad/brother/and I, we only had $25 in cash on us but we had a $40 order... tried looking in the car for some GCs but they were all at home... so in the end we had to not buy some things Yes I know, pretty vivid for a dream/nightmare!
