I am Dutch. We look first, everywhere. I have a good memory of it comes to prizes. I am like your wife. No way I buy eggs at his place. Because of his rude behaviour I will never return again even not if the other shop makes me pay ten times more.

I have a prize in mind I am willing to pay. If that's not okay there's no deal and I rather go hempty-handednded.
There's nothing I can't live without.

Why not make your own ice cream stick?
