W: That’ll be fine. I’ll be back to collect it in a minute.
C1: Well. What’s the damage?
C2: Not too bad. With tax, the total came to $91.00. With my membership, I get a $10.00 discount.
C1: That’s quite reasonable. How much was the wine?
C2: It was $35.00 for the wine and another $50.00 for the steaks.
C1: Did you say $35.00 for the wine?
C2: Yeah. It was cheaper than I thought. How much do you think we should leave him for a tip?
C1: Well, it was pretty good service and the steaks were quite delicious.
Why don’t we leave him $14.00 and that will make it an even $95.00?
C2: I really like that shirt on you.
C1: It’s a bit expensive, but it makes me look slimmer.
I think I’ll buy it.
C2: Good. Why don’t you go pay for it and I’ll meet you outside?
C1: Alright. See you in a bit.
