Are You a Smart Shopper or an Easy Target?

Take the quiz to see how well you sniff out a bargain

My results:

You answered 7 items out of 10 correctly.

Your score is 70%. Good job! You are definitely moving out of the "easy target" class and into the wise and smart shopper class. Way to go!

I got 8, but I really wish it would offer an explanation on the ones I missed.

You answered 3 items out of 10 correctly.

Your score is 30%. Keep working on your bargaining techniques and I bet you'll be a Bargain Master in no time!

I feel so pathetic because I work retail so I thought I would do better than this. Oh well, I don't actually go shopping that often.

You answered 5 items out of 10 correctly.

Your score is 50%. Well, you did pretty good however, you are what we fondly call, a middle of the road bargain hunter. You take advantage of the obvious deals out there but you still avoid hard core bargaining.

I got 6/10. There were two that seemed odd to me...

"It is worth putting up with poor attitude and service to get the price I want."

How can they mark me wrong on this? If I want to put up with attitude to save a buck, then it's worth it TO ME. Who are they to say what's worth it or not?

That's exactly what I thought when I answered this question. The is not a legitimite question because it's entirely opinion based, not fact based.

yeah i totally agree

I got a 6/10, with one "wrong" being the bad service question. It's an opinion question, and if I feel like putting up with it I will. And it'll be worth it.
