I heard through the grapevine that this store sold the best chocolate ever known to exist. I decided to take my allowance for the week and spend it on this magnificent piece of chocolate. Surely, it wouldn’t cost too much it was only chocolate! I began to race to the checkout counter when my mom said to me, “Hold your horses! You know that chocolate is going to cost you an arm and a leg, right?” I looked at her and said, “Will three dollars be enough? How can I eat chocolate if I only have one arm??”
