A Scary Price Tag
But looking at the gown’s price tag began to crush Ellen’s dreams of wearing it. The cost was more money than she needed to buy a car. She couldn’t decide whether her hopes of a magical celebration could justify spending money so irresponsibly.
The salesperson explained to Ellen why the dress had such a high cost, pointing out that it was expertly made and one of a kind. It was obvious that that kind of style would always have a big price tag. Refusing to give up, Ellen asked the salesperson to reserve the dress for her, believing she could find a way to buy it.
