Respectfully negotiating wages

So I’m about to be moving jobs, nothing too major. I’ve been working retail for about 3 years now and currently make around 16 1/2 an hour (couple benefits but it’s retail so ya know) and the new place starts at 17 (about all I know) factory work, I’m hoping to haggle for a bit more than a 50¢ raise and better hours. I’m just unsure how to pitch a higher price without offending (I’m only on job number 2 going into 3 so not a lot of experience). In Michigan if it matters
