The Leather Jacket

Confidential Instructions for the Buyer

Your friend bought a leather jacket a few days ago at Leather World down at the neighborhood mall. The jacket usually costs $150, but your friend bought it on sale for $100.

Apparently, the jacket is too small for your friend, because your friend has asked you if you want to buy it. The truth is, you absolutely love the jacket and definitely want to buy it. It fits you perfectly and you look great in it.

The only question is how much it will cost. You've been saving money for a jacket for awhile, so it's not a matter of not having enough cash. It's just a matter of wanting to get the best deal possible.
