Bargain

Okie i am oredi displaying my auntie traits. Gosh, so embarrassing. But i dun mind being an auntie. Auntie very li4 hai4 (p0werful) one. Bargaining skills superb.

i wanted to buy some vcds to watch over the cny period and decided to try my luck at the store in front of the jewellery shop. this was wat happened...

Miss Bargain stood in front of the table and started to pick up the box sets of k dramas.

Uncle praised whichever title i picked up and said it was a good buy. (it was not going to affect my decision. i knew which title i wanted. checked it out at poh kim before. opps another auntie trait--comparing prices. pretty soon i can tell u all wat are the different prices of veg at the various supermarkets)

Miss bargain: can sell it to me at $15? (box set was priced at 18 bucks for 22 cds. oredi a good bargain)

Uncle: Cannot lah. Not earning much.

Miss bargain pretended to think deeply.

Uncle's fren at the store: very cheap oredi. cos the rent here is lower than at the shoppin centre. just buy lah!

Miss bargain din reply, still fingering the box set.

Uncle: sell at 18 bucks very cheap liao. cost price 15.50. i sell u 15 bucks cannot lah.

Miss bargain (still dun wanna give up): how about u give me one dollar discount?

Uncle: (kept quiet for a while) sell to you at 16 bucks will be too cheap

Miss bargain sighed and handed over twenty dollars.

Then uncle gave her 4 bucks change!!!

Bargain successful. To her disbelief. Thanks uncle.
