Rating: Summary: A Riot to Read and Money Saving Review: I enjoyed this book so much. Barbara has a great sense of humor and you can't put the book down. What will she do next! It's helped me in many situations with businesses and made asking painless.
Rating: Summary: Since you ASKed . . . Review: If you buy only one book this year, buy Ask! Not only will it help you save tons of money, but the book is hilarious. Rollin's escapades get more and more daring. you keep reading to find out what's she's going to do next. Rollin has an interesting new take on how to deal with consumer hassles, as reflected in her title. She does a careful analysis of us vs. big business, why we behave like we do an how we can adopt new ways to have successful dealings as consumers. The best part is that I've already saved some money as a result of these techniques. I lowered my monthly home alarm bill by finding the right person and then ASKing nicely.
Rating: Summary: Dynamic, Hilarious, Revolutionary Review: This book has absolutely revolutionized my life. It has completely inspired me to speak up and ASK! My first breakthrough was in a local restaurant where I had received miserable service. I asked the manager for a discount on my meal and he in turn presented me with a coupon for a free dinner for two. Wow! It gives you a real feeling of satisifaction and accomplishment.
Rating: Summary: Dynamic, Hilarious, Revolutionary Review: This book leaves nothing unchallenged. Barbara does NOT take No for an answer. She probes and questions till businesses are worn down and give her what she wants. She's not intimidated by their usual tactics -- "It's not company policy," "No one has ever asked before--" yadda, yadda. She's daring and audacious and shows us how we can ask too, without changing or going through a special program. Just by reading the book, you get empowered and start Asking, not being cowed and intimidated. The bullets on the cover don't do the book justice. It's a lot more than getting deals, but an empowerment and a way to not feel helpless in the marketplace. Plus, the book is such fun and easy to read.
Rating: Summary: Non-stop - Couldn't put the book down! Review: This book was one of those ones that you just don't put down because you are so eager to see what happens next. I hate getting taken advantage of by retail sellers and service providers, so this book helped me understand their MOs and figure out how to get help from them to get satisfaction. Can't go wrong here - I'm loading up for Christmas presents.
