1. Talk with Melissa

M: hi, how's your weekend?

Me: Pretty busy. I did lots of shopping.

M: yeh?

Me: I need to change the area rugs of my apartment. So I went to ABC Carpeting Warehouse in XXX.

M: Oh, I need to get an area rug for my apartment too. I went to ABC store recently. How's the warehouse? Any sale there?

Me: Yeh, all the sale items are additional 50% off. I think it's a good deal. I didn't know it first, after I picked them up and paid, I just realized that all sales are 50% off. It's a big surprise. I saved lots of money. I'm so happy.

M: Wow, sounds great. I'll go there to have a check too.

Me: yeh, you should.
