Best Answer

Deacons have pretty much the same authority as priests when it comes to blessing items and homes. A gift to the priest or deacon that makes a special effort to come out and do you a favor is always a good thing, but it is never required. Charging for sacraments or sacramental is known as simony and is a very bad thing. In other words, you may offer something to the priest, but you may not "pay" him.

Where can you find low-priced quality rosaries?

Most Catholic book/gift stores would be able to offer you a selection or give you the names of certain distributors. However, when it comes down to it, the best rosaries are usually hand-crafted made by people in your community or in other countries where such skills are still retained and passed on. If you visit a convent or monastery where rosaries are made by the religious living there you will find the best crafted rosaries in the world - usually they are reasonably priced and sometimes all that is asked is a donation. Some of these convents and monasteries may have websites where such things are posted. Dominican monasteries, whose founder St. Dominic was given the Rosary by the Blessed Virgin Mary, are renowned for excellent rosaries.
