In this episode, CJ sits down with frugal living expert Michelle Rogers to unlock the surprisingly simple skill of strategic haggling. Most of us never think to negotiate anything beyond a car or a house, but Michelle reveals that almost every recurring bill and major purchase has a hidden 'secret menu' of discounts just waiting for you to ask. She shares her proven, step-by-step script for politely calling your internet provider, disputing a medical bill, and even asking for a discount at the checkout counter of your favorite local store. The conversation covers the psychology behind why businesses say yes, the exact phrases that work, and the common mistakes that get you a quick 'no.' Michelle also shares a personal story about how a single, uncomfortable five-minute phone call saved her $600 on a dental procedure. By the end, listeners will have a practical, low-stress framework to start negotiating their own bills this week, turning a dreaded conversation into a powerful money-saving tool.
