As a former retail worker,

As a former retail worker, if you do try this, PLEASE don't try it when there's a line behind you and the sales associates are scurrying around. There's a line between asking politely and demanding/taking up time by playing "hesitant" just to get a discount.

Also, many stores have a 7- or 14-day limit on their price adjustment policy. (Where you can bring in your receipt and the item to get a price adjustment if it goes on sale later on.)
