Something really cheap
After being away on business, Tim thought it would be nice to bring his wife a little gift.
“How about some perfume?”he asked the cosmetics clerk. She showed him a $50.00 bottle.
“That’s a bit much,”said Tim, so she returned with a smaller bottle for $30.00.
“That’s still quite a bit,”Tim netplained.
Growing annoyed, the clerk brought out a tiny $15.00 bottle.
“What I mean,”said Tim, “is I’d like to see something really cheap.”
The clerk handed him a mirror.
真正便宜的東西
做完生意回來后，提姆覺得應該給妻子帶點什么禮物回去。
“那些香水怎么賣啊?”他問賣化妝品的`售貨員。售貨員給他展示了一支價值50美元的香水。
“看起來好像有點貴哦!”提姆說道。于是售貨員又拿出一款30美元的香水。
“還是貴了點。”提姆抱怨道。
售貨員開始有點惱火了，就給提姆一瓶很小的香水，價值15美元。
“我的意思是，”提姆說，“我想看看一些真正便宜的東西。”
售貨員聽了后，遞給了提姆一面鏡子。
