How About $20

As Vice President of my sorority Delta Phi Epsilon, one of the many tasks that are given to me is planning our annual formal. This year, I decided to hold our formal in Walt Disney World, however the formal is not a magical experience just yet. Months and months of planning to into preparing this one night for the sorority.

One of the many things I have learned from planning this event is the ability to bargain. I have to bargain with the DJ, with the hotel coordinator, flourists, and any other company that plays a part in the final product of the event.

Bargaining is something I have never had to do, and something I hopefully never have to do in the future. I am horrible at talking down a price and most of the time I am a complete pushover. Therefore, I don't ever see myself getting involved with sales in the future.
