There are a couple of points, I buy things that are on sale in the grocery store, if bananas are on sale I buy them instead of the peaches that are not on sale.
Now when I go to the bike shop I work on a deal for the bike i want, if the shop doesn't like the offer, they don't sell me a bike. I have also found that at some shops the salesman does not have the authority to lower the price but the owner of the shop does.
I stock up on tubes when they are on sale, if the LBS is having a sale I will shop.
