A dialogue between two friends about money and spending
Ahmad: Hey Kamran, guess what? Aftab's Sporting Goods is having a sale on camping stuff! Sleeping bags are half price now.
Kamran: I only have thirty-five Rupees left for this month. I can't buy a sleeping bag.
A: How about this? I'll lend you the money, and you can give it back to me next month.
K: Thanks, but I need to save money for college. If I don't spend less, I won't save anything. I tend to spend a lot and struggle to pay my bills.
A: I totally get you. Let's just check out the sale and see what's there.
K: Alright, if you say so.
A: Look! These are only forty rupees, Kamran! What a deal! We could each pay ten rupees now and the rest next month.
K: They're inexpensive... (pauses). Do you think I can manage with twenty-five rupees this month?
A: Of course, you can do it! Let's ask the cashier to ring them up. This line is too long.
K: Maybe I won't have much money, but at least I'll have a place to sleep.
