I was into Olympia Sports the other day with Emma, 7, ASD, and she saw a Red Sox--of COURSE!--uniform top on the wall for sale. It had one of those big yellow signs on it that said, '$89'. So, Em walks over to the counter and says to the young man at the register, "Um, excuse me....but that price is too high. It says 89 dollars. That's too much money." The employee, who looked to be all of 18 years old, then started to explain to her that he didn't set the prices! It was cute, anyway!

I was into Olympia Sports the other day with Emma, 7, ASD, and she saw a Red Sox–of COURSE!–uniform top on the wall for sale. It had one of those big yellow signs on it that said, ‘$89′. So, Em walks over to the counter and says to the young man at the register, “Um, excuse me….but that price is too high. It says 89 dollars. That’s too much money.” The employee, who looked to be all of 18 years old, then started to explain to her that he didn’t set the prices!

It was cute, anyway!
