Read this excerpt from "The Gift of the Magi" by O. Henry. Pennies saved one and two at a time by bull-dozing the grocer and the vegetable man and the butcher until one's cheeks burned. What inference can be made about Della from this excerpt?

Della saves pennies by “bull-dozing” the grocer, vegetable man, and butcher, which suggests she pushes hard when bargaining over prices. The detail that her cheeks burned implies the effort makes her feel uncomfortable, but she does it to save money. So the best inference is that Della bargains well in order to save money.
