Can I borrow your CDs for our school dance?
Oh, you don't ask much, do you?
I promise I will personally guard every single one and they will come back in perfect condition.
I'll tell you what. Your class can rent them from me for the night and buy back any damaged ones.
That sounds fair. That's still cheaper than paying a band to come play for us.
Not as fun though. A live band is way more exciting!
Our class doesn't have enough money. We already checked into it.
Let me know with your next dance. I know a band that may give you a break for the publicity.
