The Price is Write

Brad, a happily-married shopaholic, had a dirty little secret.  After buying expensive things, he slashed the price tags so it looked like he got a bargain. When he showed his husband his latest find, Lars was always impressed. He’d married a great shopper!

Lars, a graphic artist, occasionally bought Brad lavish gifts. He always “forgot” to take off the price tags, but one day Brad discovered that the price tag was actually a sticker covering up the much cheaper original cost. Lars was inflating the price of his gifts.

Brad, outraged, accused Lars of keeping secrets. Brad was an excellent actor.
