Instructions:

You can negotiate for anythingdry cleaning services, a taxi bill, a restaurant meal, or a couch. My preference is for you to negotiate in a setting where negotiations are uncommon (e.g., not in a flea market). You can be the buyer or the seller, and although you do not need to complete a transaction to complete the exercise, you must be willing to accept the deal if your terms are met. Do not negotiate for a car or house, for example, if you are not actually interested in buying it.

In your write-up I will be looking for (and grading) the following:

• An interesting negotiation setting. Any setting will work, but I would prefer to see you initiate a negotiation in a setting where negotiations are not the norm.
• In your assignments, you can write about a spontaneous negotiation (e.g., after receiving bad service). However, I am interested to see you document how you prepared for at least one negotiation. Actual planning materials will be accepted as part of your submission and are encouraged. 
• Integration of class material. To what extent can you integrate theory and class lessons in analyzing this experience? 
• Identifying key lessons. What did you learn about yourself and/or others from this exercise?

The write-up should be 2 pages long (double spaced 12 point font). Class materials are attached. Please have the negotiation setting something applicable to a college student.
