it's such a nice day outside. Let's take a walk into town and do some window-shopping.
you know I hate shopping more than anything else in this world.
I know. But we could get some exercise in, and we could get some errands run, too. Window-shopping won't cost you anything.
what kind of errands do we need to run?
well, we could go to the newsagent's to pick up the Sunday paper, go to the butcher's to pick up a chicken for a roast dinner, and to the chemist's to pick up your prescription from the doctor.
I'll only go if we can stop at the office-license to pick up something to drink for tonight.
fine, we'll do that on the way home, so we don't have to carry it the whole time.
sounds good. You have to promise not go into any of the stores in the mall though. I know how you like to try things on in the fitting rooms, especially if the stores have special offers.
I promise. We're only going for a walk to get some exercise and to get some things done that we haven't had time for.
ok, let's go then!
do you have any money?
for what?
for our errands, and maybe a little extra for something from a vendor on the street.
you said you were only going to window shop!
I agreed to not go into the mall, but I can still look at things in the market!
I should have known...
