On Mother’s Day last year ,Peter tried to buy a present for his mother. He went into a shop, which had a sign out side. “Second hand clothes, bought and sold. “ He was carrying an old jacket and asked the owner of the shop, “How much will it cost?” The man looked at it and then said, “Three dollars.”
“What? I thought it was 7 dollars!” said Peter.
“No, I won’t pay more than three dollars.” Said the man.
“Well,here is the money.”said Peter, “This jacket is outside your store, which said 7 dollars. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to make sure how much it really was?”
Before the surprised owner could think of anything to say. Peter left the store with the jacket happily.
