So we need quite a big job done. We are looking to do it in association with another one which also needs a skip meaning that to do them both, we would need a bigger skip.
When talking with a new supplier, the man quoted for the job and a skip (tho from what I remembered the price he was quoting for the skip was def more than I remembered from when we have got them before). I said, well we can get the skip and just pay you x price for the job. Just before the man said yes that seems fair, DH then jumps in and says "yes, well we need the skip for y job too". Supplier than obviously used that as a bargaining tool to basically say well as you are getting the skip anyway, I will just charge you half of what I was going to charge for the skip. I was a bit floored so just agreed but am annoyed that DH gave him an opportunity for negotiation. AIBU? Or should it "just not have mattered" what came out of his mouth as he said.
