Buying a Dishwasher
KATE: "Do you know where | can buy a new
dishwasher?"
DIANE: "I think the home improvement store
is having a big sale this weekend. Is your
dishwasher broken?"
KATE: "Yeah. | need to replace it."
DIANE: "Have you tried to repair it?"
KATE: "Yeah, we called a repairman yesterday.
He said that it would cost more to repair than to
replace it."
DIANE: "Wow. At least he was honest about it."
KATE: "| know. | appreciated that. We really
can't afford to buy a new one right now. We just
had a baby a couple of months ago. But | reallyhad a baby a couple of months ago. But | really
need one."
DIANE: "That's right. You had a baby not too
long ago. Why don't you buy a used one?"
KATE: "Where can | get a used one that's in
good condition?"
DIANE: "I actually have a friend who is selling
hers. She said there isn't anything wrong with
her current one. She just wants a different color.
Her current one is white."
KATE: "I don't care what color it is. | just want
one that works well. Do you know how much it
is?"
DIANE: "I don't know. Let me call her right now."
KATE: "Thanks. I'll talk to my husband too. He
may not want a used one. He's a little picky
about appliances."
DIANE: "Ok. Let me know if he's interested."
