#43: Fair Trade
Sometimes when you want something done, you have to somehow convince the other person that they should do the desired thing for you. It can be hard to convince someone to do anything but adding something interesting in there as an incentive might do the trick…
But this particular incentive wasn’t going to cut it… If your girlfriend wasn’t going to buy you this particular present before, she probably wasn’t going to feel any more inclined to after you got advice from a different man in the store who agreed with you.
