Something cheaper
A store displayed and sold a lot of nice jewelry. The owner was always present and extremely watchful to prevent anyone from stealing. One day, however, a thief tried to steal a necklace, but the owner saw him and quickly picked up the telephone to call the police to arrest him.The thief implored, "Please don't do that! I have a wife and three children at home. If you don't call the police, l'll pay for the necklace!" The owner was somewhat concerned about the thief's wife and kids, and he really didn't want to bother the police, so he agreed that the best solution was to let the thief pay for it. That way, no one innocent would suffer and everyone would have a clear conscience. When the owner gave the bill to the thief, though, the thief said, "The reason I was trying to steal that necklace was because I could not afford it, so now, I really wasn't intending to pay full price for it! Don't you have something cheaper?"
