Keep the Change
Selling secondhand books at our church bazaar, I got into an argument with a prospective customer. He was interested in buying The Pocket Book of Ogden Nash but claimed it was overpriced at 35 cents. Other paperbacks were selling for ten or 15 cents each.
I pointed out that the book was in good condition. Nash was a fun poet, and it was for a good cause. He said it was a matter of principle. Ultimately, I agreed to sell him the book for 15 cents. Triumphant, he paid with a $10 bill. "Keep the change," he said.
三聲口哨
我答應(yīng)過我的女朋友過生日進(jìn)送她一條金項鏈。可是當(dāng)珠寶商報出我們看中的那條項鏈的價格時,我低低地打了個長口哨。“那這條項鏈多少錢呢?”我指著另一個盤子里的項鏈問。
“先生,對你來說,”珠寶商答道,“大約值三聲口哨。”
