Sometimes asking is merely providing an easy opportunity for those destine to be generous.
I went to Panera for my weekly, bi-weeky, whenever I am on that side of town luncheon with my daughter. First, I ordered the grilled cheese and broccoli cheddar soup to which they a were out. Next, I ordered the chicken noodle soup, again they were out. I touched my chest to show my sheer disappointment, since I was not about to have the meal I wanted. Wait, opportunity to ask for something. I asked the cashier if she had a coupon, so I could return and enjoy now the once in a lifetime meal with my daughter. The manger stepped him and offered me FREE soda whenever I am in . This is a big deal for me because I usually don't get sodas when we dine out.
The key to asking is to do it in a way to make the giver feels good about giving to you the givee or getter.
