"8 Galleons and 12 Sickles, little one." Gem started to wrap everything up, giving the girl some room to count out her coins.
Pippa counted out the exact number of coins required, and placed the total of 8 Galleons and 12 Sickles on the counter. "Thank you so much" she said politely as she watched the woman wrap her goods up with great care.

At least now Pippa would have a place to put all her shopping, and subsequently, all her school supplies for the trip to Hogwarts!

Evangeline approached the counter, she placed the telescope on the counter but there was no way she would be able to put the magical trunk on the counter so she left it on the floor.

"Excuse me? I was just wondering if you sell protective gloves here?" She asked.

Before leaving the counter, Rudolphus smiles at the shopkeeper. "Likewise, madame," he says before looking down at his daughter. "Come on now, Aiden," he pats her on the shoulder without looking at her.

Aiden nods at her father as she takes the wrapped telescope from the kind woman. "Thank you," she quickly leaves catching up with Rudolphus.

Elizabeth holds the items her sister is going to buy her in her hands and just waits for her turn patiently. But still having that feeling that she was fogeting something.

Greymalkin 08-17-2011 12:24 AM

Sarah, holding her new brass telescope and wizard's chess game, trudged to the counter. She was glad she was almost done, her feet were killing her, but she was still excited.

Blaire made her way into the shop, looking around at all the things that decorated the shelves. She soon found where the telescopes were. She picked up a shiny telescope made of brass, and walked to the counter to wait in line.

Looking down at the list, George saw only one other things that he would need, a telescope. He had heard that he needed to go down the street to Wiseacres for the telescope so he made his way down the street and entered the shop. He saw the display of telescopes, grabbed one and headed for the counter. once he got here he saw that a line had already queued up, so he got in line behind the girl in front of him.

He decided that he should start meeting people he was going to be at Hogwarts with. He looked up and said, " Hi, I'm George Ericsson. Are you going to Hogwarts too?"

Amethyst walked to the counter after looking around and seemed to not have found what she was looking for. She waited in line for her turn, looking around the place, seeming the utmost amused.

"i think that will be all" she said to the shop keeper. She pulled out her little yellow coin purse, "how much will it be?" she asked, with twinkles in her eyes.

"19 Galleons, 4 Sickles and 28 Knuts." Gemini said as she gathered up the items and tapped each with her wand, deactivating the anti theft charms and wrapping them up.

I hope that the rest of your day will continue to be a good one". With a smile, Alexis picked up her packages and left the store.

"Not a problem, dearie." Gemini dropped the money into the till and turned to the next person.

"Here's the money!" Raven said, excited to get her new supplies. Her father put the money on the counter. Raven grabbed the items and looked around then walked into the street, wondering where to go next.

Alrighty then. Again, she grabbed the money and dropped it into the till.

"You're welcome, love!" Gem called out to the kid as he walked out of the store.

Gemini collected the money and pushed the packages towards the girl so that she could take them, "There you are, have a lovely day."

"No dear, I don't, but they do seem to be a quite popular item today." Perhaps she SHOULD start carrying them, hmmm. "That'll be 8 Galleons and 3 Sickles for those."

Gemini added up the sum in her head, "That'll be 9 Galleons, 5 Sickles and 28 Knuts there, dear."

"Is that all for you then?" Gemini tapped the telescope with her wand, once again removing the anti-theft charms and wrapping it up, "6 Galleons."

'And 6 Galleons for you too, love." She added to the boy, who was right behind the girl.

"Something I can help you with, love?" Gem asked, noting that the poor dear looked a little bit lost.

Amethyst smiled to the woman and nodded sweetly, her voice soft and gently. "Yes, actually...I-I'm looking...." She checked her school supply list and nodded as she saw what she was looking for. " A...a telescope...could you tell me as to where I could find one?"

Pierce 08-17-2011 04:31 AM

Stephen walked up to the queue and awaited to be tended to. He was so excited. He had almost everything except that darned telescope. He really hoped he'd find it here. If he didn't he didn't know what to do.

WitchLight27 08-17-2011 05:34 AM

Erin was carrying all the items she'll be purchasing then headed toward the counter placing the telescope, revelear and the sneakoscope in front of her. Exhausted, she asked, "How much would it all costs?" She reached for her wallet the moment the shopkeeper looked at her.

George reached in his pocket and pulled out 6 Galleons

"Thank you very much ma'am." He said, beaming at her. Finally, a transaction in the Wizarding World that did not leave him feeling like an idiot. Thank goodness. He collected his telescope from the counter and walked back out into the street

"Thank you so much!" Pippa said as she retrieved her packages from the counter. "You, too!" she replied, before tucking her new belongings under her arm and skipping out the door to complete the rest of her shopping.

"Oh, well thanks for helping me out," Evangeline said. She then dug inside her pocket to find her purse. She found 8 Galleons and 3 Sickles and passed it over to the shop keeper.

Sarah frowned, did she have enough? She pulled the money out of her pocket and counted. Just barely.

Sarah placed the money on the counter and smiled, "Thanks,"

"There's a whole lot of them back there against the wall." Gemini pointed with her wand, showing the way towards the rather large display of telescopes.

"O....kay, woops, I'll read the rules more carefully next time," she said bashfully.

"You've still got my 8 galleons.. I'd be allowed a 2-way mirror, wouldn't I?" She paused for a second to ponder. "That leaves me 6 galleons. I'll also have a floating lantern then, and a magical trunk if you please."
