My Russian friend Valentina does this everywhere we go, drives me crazy and I find it a bit embarrassing. Bargaining for popcorn at the movie theater after bargaining for the movie tickets both of which she never gets a discount on but always holds up the line doing it. She even tried to bargain down a cup of coffee at StarBucks the other day. She spent a week bargaining over a bicycle and in the end got $20 off the bike but this was after spending a week driving halfway across town a few times a day to do the bargaining.

I'm much simpler to do business with. Give me a far price or I turn around and leave.
