Emma’s Shopping Trip

First of all, Emma bought herself a tablet, as she’d wanted one for ages. This cost her RM1100, but as it
was the last one in the shop, and was in the shop window, she got 10% off. That was good news, but she
then had to pay extra 6% SST.

After that, she went to the market. She bought herself a smart jacket and a matching skirt for RM325
and a beautiful silk scarf for RM80. She asked the cashier to reduce the price by RM5, and she agreed.

She was hungry, thirsty and tired by now, and so she had a fruit juice and a sandwich, and this cost her
RM25.

On her way home, she decided to buy some presents for her family. She got her mum a lovely vase. The
retail price was RM90, but she got it in a sale, and so got a discount of RM15. She saw a lovely painting
of a sunset. Her dad loves sunsets. The shopkeeper wanted RM180, but she persuaded him to sell it to
her for RM155.

Her younger brother has a sweet tooth, so she bought him some sweets for RM15.

Finally, she was ready to come home. She took a taxi, and that cost her RM27 including a small tip.
