cheap price minute so slow take make save pull nothing fast too
David hated spending money. When he had to buy
in a shop, he always tried his best to knock down the price , even for the
things. If he wanted to buy a bottle of orange, for example, and the shopkeeper asked for $2, David would say, “
it $1.90 and I’ll buy it.” Sometimes the shopkeepers agreed to reduce their
a little. “What’s ten cents?” they asked themselves. “If it makes this man happy, it won’t hurt me very much.” In this way David saved a few cents here and a few cents there, and by the end of the year he
several hundred dollars.
One day he had a very bad toothache and had to go to the dentist. The dentist looked at the tooth and said, “This tooth will have to
out. It’s
serious to be saved.” “How much I must pay you for
out a tooth?” David asked. “ Forty dollars,” the dentist said. “How long will it take you to pull out the tooth?” he asked. “About two minutes,” the dentist answered. “Forty dollars for two
work!” he shouted, “That’s robbery.” The dentist smiled. “You’re right,” she said . “Thank you for telling me. I’ll pull your tooth out very
. How about if I take half an hour?”
