Summary

This quote sarcastically defines a "bargain" as anything a customer perceives to be priced so low that it must be causing a loss for the store. It suggests that customers often expect to find extremely discounted prices and view them as advantageous deals, even if it potentially means the store is incurring losses. The quote subtly criticizes the consumer mindset that focuses solely on personal gain, disregarding the impact it may have on the profitability of the store.

She was looking into my eyes with that way she had of lookin

She was looking into my eyes with that way she had of looking that made you wonder whether she really saw out of her own eyes. They would look on and on after every one else's eyes in the world would have stopped looking. She looked as though there were nothing on earth she would not look at like that, and really she was afraid of so many things.
