Read all about it!” Place: A street in your town Time: 11.30am Characters: You and a newspaper seller Situation: You buy a newspaper from a small kiosk on the street. The seller gives you the wrong change for a five pound note Scenes: i) You buy the newspaper and discover the mistake ii) You challenge the seller but they refuse to accept that they have made a mistake iii) You decide to set up your own newspaper kiosk next to the seller’s and start a price war by selling your newspapers at a discount A: "Can you give me a copy of Le Monde, how much is it?" B: "Sure, One pound fifty, here you are." A: "Here's the money, thank you!." B: "You are welcome!" After a while A: "Excuse me, but I gave you a five pound note for this newspaper and you seem to have given me the wrong change." B: "No, sir, I don't think so! You gave me a five pound note and I gave you three pounds fifty change. I gave you a two pound coin, a one pound coin and a fifty pence." A: "Yeah, I gave you a five pound note and you gave me the change. I put the change in my pocket and looked at the headlines immediately. When I looked at my change, I saw that you had given me two one pound coins and a fifty pence piece. You gave me the wrong change. You still owe me another pound." B: "I don't think so. You gave me five pounds and I gave you three pounds fifty in change. I know I gave you a two pound coin because it was the last two pound coin I had." A: "I am afraid I don't have any two pound coin on me. I have just one pound coins." B: "You really should examine your change before you leave my stall. You can't expect me to recognise mistakes that happen away from my stall. There's nothing I can do to help you, sir." The seller turns away and said to another customer: "Sir, can I help you?." A: "You can't do that, you still owe me one pound. What are you going to do about it?" B: "There is nothing I can do about it. I have given you your change. You accepted and went away. If there had been a problem with the change, why didn't you tell me straightaway, instead of walking off?" A: "Well, if that's the way you want to play it, I will set up my own newspaper kiosk, right next to yours and I will undercut your prices. I tell you what I am going to do." B: "Are you crazy? What a stupid idea? Do you know anything about selling newspapers? Do you have a licence to sell newspapers? Do you think they let anybody sell newspapers? Do you can sell newspapers at whatever price
