(Kaieteur News) – Guyana got some stores where the word “discount” apparently does not exist in the English language. Dem stores never hear about “Sale,” “Special Offer,” “Clearance” or even “Buy one, get one free,” and asking for a little reduction in price is like asking the store owner to donate one of his kidneys.

Yuh walk into one ah dem stores with yuh wallet full of hope and yuh heart full of ambition. Yuh see something yuh been watching for months and decide today is the day. Yuh pick it up, admire it, turn it around, and then gather courage and ask, “Boss, yuh could knock off a lil piece from de price?”
