Austin and Cassidy did a deal. Austin bought some carrots from Cassidy for 12 cents a carrot. He used his pennies, which he didn't want, to purchase the carrots.
Cassidy gave him the carrots and then Austin sold them to me for 15 cents a carrot. The deal began that he would sell them to me for a dime. I told him that that was 2 cents less than he was paying for the carrots. He said he didn't care. He just wanted the dimes versus the pennies. So funny.
I didn't want to take advantage of him, and I really wanted to see this entrepreneurial spirit take off, so I told him I would pay him 15 cents each. At the end of the deal Cassidy was happy with his $2.40 worth of pennies, as he is collecting pennies, and Austin was happy because he made $3.00 by selling them to me!

Just think of how big a garden he can have next year, you'll need a tractor. Good job Cassidy there is nothing nicer than fresh veggies.
