Hello, my name is Anat and I am 16. I like fashion very much and dressing in accordance

with the latest trends is important to me.

I want to tell you about something that happened to me recently:

"I received 200 NIS from my parents for Hanukkah and during the vacation I happily

went to Fox.I have had my eye on one of the shirts in this

store for a long time. In the store, they had many sales, discounts and a huge variety of choices. I had to choose: I selected an amazing shirt with matching trousers, then I saw another beautiful

shirt on sale. I measured it and found that it fitted me perfectly. I decided to get it as well.

When I got to the register I realized I was over my budget by 80 NIS.

What am I going to do now?
