Brighten their Deepavali

We don't flinch before swiping our debit cards in a swanky shopping mall when buying overpriced merchandise worth thousands in one go, but we bargain for ten-twenty rupees when buying small little things from poor street vendors.

Not saying don't bargain at all, do it if you feel you're being grossly overcharged but be a bit kind in doing so.
Saving a few rupees with bargains with poor vendors will not save you a fortune but if you let go of the harsh haggling, it can help brighten their Deepawali.. or even other days.

Give it a thought.

a nice thought and very relevant

when we bargain, we think they have large margins or they are dishonest traders

when anything is made or marketed by these small vendors , they do not have economies of scale.

we can think it as a kind of charity and pay as far as possible without questioning the price and haggling
