"How much is one coaster?"
"One coaster is 150 rupees, Madam"
"Okay - how about if I buy four coasters for 350 rupees?"
"500 rupees"
"400 rupees?"
"Okay, 400 rupees"
"I would also like to buy this hair tie - how much is it?"
"100 rupees"
"Could I buy the four coasters and the hair tie for 450 rupees?"
"Okay - 450 rupees"
[The coasters and hair tie are packaged up; I get out my purse]
(very wistfully) "But I would like you to pay me 500 rupees, Madam"
