Taking the vial in hand, Gretchen gave it a good look, turning it over once. Her gaze went to the pair of girls as one of them spoke up. "I don't. It wouldn't have gone up on the shelf, had I noticed." How old was this girl? She certainly knew quite a bit about Potions for how small she looked.. "Here's the deal, I'll let you girls keep it. You appear to know what you're talking about and it sounds like a fun little experiment to have a go with, why ruin your fun? But, you have to make me a promise you won't try it on yourselves or anybody else unless and until you make sure it's good and finished. Right?"
With that said, Gretchen smiled more and offered the vial back. "That's 1 galleon for the skiving snackbox set."

She took a galleon from the inside of her robes and handed it to the shopkeeper. Then she gave the skiving snackboxes and the little phial of dusted moonstone that she was still holding to Kittsa. The house elf hugged them to her chest as Aurora addressed her. "Kittsa, put the moonstone back in my potions cupboard and the snackboxes on top of it." The elf nodded and vanished with a faint 'pop.'
"Thank you!" said Aurora to the shopkeeper. She turned to Louisa, "I'll give you the Amortentia when I'm certain it's properly brewed." She waited for Louisa to pay.
Louisa smiled excitedly at the dancing stuff, she never saw a shopkeeper doing that before. She should ask the one at Flouirsh & Blotts to use it on her books, seeing them walking to the bag on their own was definitely amazing.
She practically stood there like a dumb while Aurora explained the thing to the lady, she had no clue what the younger girl said but she nodded confidently. And guess what? The lady trusted them! She beamed. "
Yes, of course." She said regarding the ' won't try it on yourselves or anybody else' matter, although that was a really nice suggestion. Like using it on the handful students who annoyed Louisa so far? That would be fun. But again that was the purpose of the Weasley's products so no need to break the promise.
"
What do my things cost, please?" She asked leaving the bag on the counter in case the lady wanted to check the stuff out again. Louisa's hand sank into her jeans pocket ready to get the galleons out. And please don't ask for Sickles, she'll have to convert the Knuts into those and the process will be… not so easy.
