Ok, this is getting pathetic. All I'm doing is asking for discounts. That's not really in keeping with the "spirit" of this project.I just made a hotel reservation for a wedding I'll be attending in the fall. Already sure of the answer, I asked nevertheless, "Do you have an AAA discount, or any other kind of discounts?" In his kindest voice, the receptionist told me I'm already getting the wedding rate. So I just looked cheap. Great.
Gained: An ounce of humility.
While you're retrofitting your expectations, I suggest you examine why it bothers you to look "cheap." Why shouldn't you want to save money? Who cares what the hotel clerk thinks of you and your spending habits? If not asking is a feminine thing, being afraid to look cheap is a bougie thing.
