I love Susan, but this grumpy, slightly scary shop owner was hilarious

Yes, you had several sellers who questioned why the candidates problems would be of any relevance to them.
The lack of any such responses was something I found rather suspicious in previous series. |

Pity she didn't get more air time - she could have been this year's SmugCow

I didn't think she was at all scary, simply a wise business woman who wasn't going to fall for some soopy flannel from a young pup hoping to dazzle her with crap!

She reminded me of Michael Roux Jnrs Assistant in Masterchef.

Yeah she and that Butcher guy just weren't impressed with the attempts to pay less for their stock, and good on them! It's their living after all.

She stopped a stunned Susan dead in her tracks. Classic Apprentice moment.

One of best ever Apprentice quotes in my opinion. You could just see the look on the Apprentices' faces as if they were saying 'What do you mean? We're on The Apprentice - we're on telly'. Brilliant.

She was awesome.
I also have to give props to the mad tea-selling lady. It's the way she drained her cup really quickly before accepting £410, while trying unsuccessfully to keep the smirk off her face. |

Not a very good business woman. You don't go scoring points off your customers if you want them to return .

Aren't you guys slightly missing the point? If someone said that to me as a shopkeeper I'd be thinking 'Oh they must be desperate to have this item if its for someone important, maybe I went in too low.'
And I'd actually jack up the price! Top Tip - If youre desperate for something, telling the seller you are kind of limits your potential to haggle. |

Top hat - £300.
Rare tea - approx £900 "Why would that make a difference to me?" - priceless! If we did a smiley lookalike contest the woman would remind me of this little fella - ![]() Imagine if Morrissey was trying to barter with her. Morrissey: "Can you knock a tenner off this for me? I've got a girlfriend in a coma". Rolly-eyes smiley look-a-like: "What difference does it make?"

She was wrong to phrase it like a problem - she should have made it sound like a possible repeat business. So when the reply came back, she could have said, "Well, you might get extra business out of it".
Most of the candidates do not have a clue about negotiation, otherwiose they would know no-one is going to sell for less than cost. |

Nah she sounded like a miserable cow trying to appear smart and get her 15 mins.
