Making a Purchase

Joan: How much is this?

Clerk: You mean the large one or the small one?

Joan: The large one.

Clerk: They’re on special this week. They’ve been reduced to five dollars.

Joan: Is this the only kind you have?

Clerk: No. We have some that are different in style but not in color. They’re over there. Do you see the sign?

Joan: Oh, yes. I think I’ll look at those over there before I decide.

Clerk: Very well. Just take your time.
