Carol, being the type shopper to "only buy-on-sale items," beckoned to a salesman in Bergdorf Goodman's. She pointed to a white wool designer dress on a mannequin, and said, "Hey Sonny boy, so how much is the dress on that store dummy over there?" "That dress is $899.95, Madam," sneered the rather snotty salesman. "Oh! For $99.95, I could get the same dress at S. Klein's downtown!" "But Madam," said the salesman, "You'll find that the dress at Klein's is recycled wool. This original is 100% pure virgin wool." And Carol replied, "So! For $800, I should be caring what the lambs do at night?" |
