Negotiating Price in a Local Shop

Cashier: Hello, welcome! Can I help you?

Alex: Hello. Yes, I am looking for a jacket.

Cashier: Sure, we have many jackets here. This one is very popular.

Alex: How much is this jacket?

Cashier: It is 85 dollars.

Alex: Oh, I see. That is a little expensive for me.

Cashier: Yes, it is good quality and warm for winter.

Alex: I understand, but it is still a bit above my budget. Do you have any discount?

Cashier: I can give you a small discount, maybe 5 dollars less.

Alex: Hmm, that is still a bit high. What is your best price?

Cashier: Let me check… I can give it for 75 dollars.

Alex: If I pay in cash, can you reduce it more?

Cashier: Cash payment… okay, I can do 70 dollars.

Alex: That sounds better. 70 dollars is okay for me.

Cashier: Perfect. I will wrap it for you.

Alex: Thank you very much.

Cashier: You’re welcome. Have a nice day!
