My shoes were worn out so I went shopping for a new pair last Wednesday. I showed great interest in a pair of black shoes which cost 120 yuan. I bargained(讨价还价) with the shop assistant and finally we reached a deal at the price of 88 yuan. But when I put my hand into the pocket…Oh, God! Where was my purse? |
