You Are A Master Negotiator!
$1.25 for a four-pack of non-scratch scrubbing sponges? Please, you cut that price in half in your sleep. The last time you went to the store, you mentioned how you thought you could just use a mop instead of a sponge to clean your dishes, and the cashier gave you a full bag of them for free. You definitely know the art of the deal. Nice!

You Are An Average Negotiator!
Well, you might not be a sponge hustler, but you're definitely no slouch either. Sometimes you'll walk away from the supermarket paying $1.25 for a four-pack of non-scratch scrubbing sponges, and sometimes you'll haggle that down to half the price and show the cashier who's the boss. Just depends! Nice!

You Are A Terrible Negotiator.
Whoa, looks like your sponge budget is totally out of control. Chances are, when you see a four-pack of non-scratch scrubbing sponges priced at $1.25, you don't even try to argue. If anything, you give the cashier a $10 and tell him to keep the change because you feel so guilty about how cheap they are. You're a terrible negotiator! Yikes!
