Candy’s shopping trip

First of all, Candy bought herself a tablet, as she’d wanted one for ages. This cost
1,100 ringgits, 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 an extra 6% GST.

After that, she went to the market. She bought herself a smart jacket and a matching
skirt for 325 ringgits and a beautiful silk scarf for 80 ringgits. She asked the cashier
to reduce the price by 5 ringgits, 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 25 ringgits. On her way home, she decided to buy
some presents for her family. She got her mum a lovely vase. The retail price was
90 ringgits, but she got it in a sale, and so she got a discount of 15 ringgits.

She saw a lovely painting of a sunset. Her dad loves sunsets. The shopkeeper
wanted 180 ringgits, but she persuaded him to sell it to her for 155 ringgits.
Her younger brother has a sweet tooth, so she bought him some sweets for 15
ringgits.

Finally, she was ready to come home. She took a taxi, and that cost her 27 ringgits,
including a small tip.
