See, maybe I'm the exception, but I LOVE wheeling and dealing for big stuff.

Like my most recent car purchase. It was after an accident, so I didn't have much money, and really needed a car. The starting price was 7000, and I talked them down to 5500, if I bought a one year warranty for around 1200 (I would have bought it anyway). Well, whaddaya know, four months later the car hate a major engine flaw, and the warranty covered it (cost was about $1000). I definately made out on this deal.

I like the feel of the competition - me vs. the car salesman - and fighting hard for what I want.
