地道美语听力播客:Finding a Bargain
Manuel: Wow, I’ve never seen so many shopping bags in my life. I can guess where you’ve been.
Georgia: I did go overboard a bit today. I went to the outlet mall and I found some realbargains . Nearly everything was discounted . I was in shopping heaven !
Manuel: I can see that.
Georgia: My favorite store had reduced prices for all of its sweaters, so I bought five. They were already on sale , but the store knocked another $5 off the price . I got them at half-price ! I was going to buy three, but the store had a special offer : If you buy four, the fifth one is free.
Manuel: But doesn’t that mean you spent more money, since you bought five sweaters when you only wanted three?
Georgia: How could I resist ? They were being sold at bargain basement prices. At another store, the sale items were two for the price of one . I’ve never seen things in that store socheap .
Manuel: Where are you going now?
Georgia: I’m going back to the outlet stores, of course. I just came home for a little breather . There’s more shopping to be done!
Manuel: Try to leave a few things for the other shoppers!
