'Hello!' she said cheerfully - and why wouldn't she be cherrful, she was buying a new broom - and gestured towards the broom racks 'I'd like to buy a Moontrimmer, please. Oh, and a servicing kit as well' "Alrighty, I think that's in order," Maggie said with a polite smile as she summoned one of the Moontrimmer boxes and a servicing kit from the side and center shelves. "That's going to come to 8 Galleons, 15 Sickles," she added as she wrapped the broom. Quote:

She quickly composed herself and smiled at the attendant behind the counter.
"Could I get a Firebolt 600 please?" She asked, excited. "And... a copy Bludgers and Broomstick and a pair of quidditch gloves and a servicing kit?" She smiled politely at the shopkeeper. Maggie nodded as the young second year rattled off everything she needed and then collected it all with a single summoning charm. She wrapped everything in brown paper and bagged it before adding, "That'll be 9 Galleons, 3 Sickles, 6 Knuts, if you please. She smiled. Quote:

She leafed through the book as she waited, stopping at the more interesing sections. "Hello, dear," Maggie said to the girl waiting patiently at the counter for her attention. She eyed the items in her arms before they reached her face again; she smiled. "Is there something else I can get you?" she asked. Quote:

The young boy...Adam seemed to be an eager learner he thought. Perhaps, the boy would tryout for his house team... As she began wrapping everything and placing it together in the bag, Maggie mentally totaled everything together in her head. Okay. Altogether it makes 8 Galleons, 10 Sickles. She placed everything up on the counter and smiled at the seeker-hopeful.
