Why are you reading the classifieds ? What do you need ?   I ’ m looking for a bookcase , but I don ’ t want to buy a new one .   Are you having any luck ?   Not really . There aren ’ t any used bookcases listed . But there are a few rummage sales on Saturday . I think I ’ ll go to them .   Do you mind if I go with you ?   Not at all . These private sales are great places to bargain . And sometimes you can find terrific things among all the junk .   I learned to negotiate 9 from my mother . I thought I was pretty good at bargaining , but I had a problem the other day at Kimble ’ s Department Store .   What happened ?
