Previous Tip -- Next Tip: Set a Budget

I think the best time to buy is at the end of a business or inventory tax quarter. The very best is at the end of November or December--those guys want those checks for the holidays.
Friday night is a perfect time. Start at 8 p.m. If you're through by 10 p.m., everyone you see after the salesman is bored stiff, just waiting, so the "manager," who doesn't exist, is softened up a bit. Besides, the others are cranky, just waiting, and the salesman now has incentive to sell. Especially if you keep saying, "Honey, I want to get this finished tonight."
Don't buy, but don't leave if the salesman is still there at 10 or 11 p.m. Nobody will "practice" selling at that time of night. (See #9 or where I mention "practice.")
