📖 READING: “Carlos and the Power of Smart Shopping”
Carlos loves fashion, but he doesn’t like wasting money. He always says, “I never buy anything that doesn’t look good on me.” Before he buys anything, he checks the size, the color, and how it looks in the mirror.
One day, he went shopping with his friend Tom. Tom bought three shirts without trying them on. Carlos only bought one shirt—but it fit perfectly.
When they got home, Tom realized that one shirt was too small, another didn’t match his pants, and the last one didn’t look good. He was disappointed. Carlos, on the other hand, looked great in his new shirt.
“You were right,” Tom said. “Next time, I’ll try the clothes first.”
Carlos smiled. “It’s not about how much you buy. It’s about what looks good on you.”
