For open_on_sunday's prompt "Sale."

Stylish, Yet Affordable

"Yup, that's definitely you," the saleswoman beams.

Buffy sighs and checks the price tag on the jacket for the fifth time. "I guess I'm too much for me to handle." She looks away from the mirror as she takes the jacket off; it snags on her Doublemeat Palace name tag.

"Oh, I forgot to mention, this one's on sale. 50% off."

"Really? I -"

"Really."

"Look, I'll be honest with you. I can't really afford a new jacket at all, I just wanted to -"

The saleswoman looks her in the eye. "My son graduated from Sunnydale High. Just take the jacket."
