Furniture and bedding don't like giving discounts.
Electrical will sell you their soul.

i always aim at 15%-20% of their marked price...one thing that always seems to work is: "I've seen this at another store (insert Good Guys/Rick Hart/whatever) for $xxx can you beat this price?" Of course I've never been to other stores, which probably have the same prices on them but if you aim at 15%-20% on anything you'll be fine. They're still making money if they're selling it to me

I think the reason for that is because you can compare prices with the electrical anywhere whereas the bedding stuff (with the exception of linen) is exclusive to harvey norman / bedshed etc. Someone far more cynical than me would suggest that it is the same but they just sew a different badge on it so the retailers can protect their margins.
