“Oh, I do love this green bag. How much is it?”
£50, replied the shop assistant.
“Mmmmm. I think I'm going to have to buy it.”
It was an amazing green bag. I love it so much.
“Here you go, sir. Your green bags.”
“Bags?”
“Yes, buy one, get one free. Two green bags. Completely identical.”
I love the bag. Is there really any need for two of them?
“Can I mix and match?”
“No,” replied the shop assistant. “Two healthy green bags. I have a feeling that you really need two of them.”
I'm not going to argue. I may as well take both bags. I could give it to a friend, sell it or just keep a spare.
I'll decide that another day.
Today is all about my new green bag for me.
I got home. I took the label off the bag I intend to keep. I put the other one in the cupboard. I can decide what to do with it another day.
I went out with my green bag.
I remember Pete the Cat for a moment. Except, instead of new shoes, I have a new green bag.
I am going to walk along and sing my song.
I love my green bag
I love my green bag
I love my green bag
I love my green bag
I get home. I open the cupboard under the stairs. I put my new green bag alongside the spare green bag.
The next day, I decided to do some shopping.
I take my green bag. That's the one without the label.
I quickly glance at the other bag.
Then I think to myself.
“I really should sell the spare bag, but something is telling me not to.”
