Was I Cheeky

...to ask for a discount on 2 houseplants on the verge of going to house plant heaven?
A Wilko near me gets good plants, but they deteriorate quickly as no one seems to take care of them. I'd gone in there on Wednesday, and they had a new shipment...all lovely and healthy.
Yesterday the ferns were wilting...so I chose 2 particularly sensitive ones and decided to ask for a discount as I knew they would be past saving by today...and not get sold. The manager I spoke to wasn't having it, insisting someone did take care of the plants and *maybe* it had not been done yet. I persevered, saying a discounted sale is better than none at all. She took 50p off each one.
A good soaking, and they've both bounced back. Now I have to keep the little divas alive ;)
Do you ask for discounts?

Should be back to normal in Feb. Maybe a second outing next New Year.

When I think I can justify it and always on bigger purchases.
