A and B have a dialogue about buying a book for a gift. A asks B for a suggestion within their budget and without preferences. B suggests a cheap book and local bookshop. They agree on a time to meet at the bookshop. When A asks about payment method, B suggests cash instead of credit. B then asks if the gift should be given at their holiday party, and A agrees while also suggesting to buy a card.
