| | |  Wiseacres Counter
 When your shopping experience, or stay has come to an end, please make your way to the front of the shop, where the check out counter is located. Check out of your room, make your purchases, request gift wrapping, or direct general questions to the shopkeeper.
Once you leave the shop, you will find yourself on the South End of the Street. We hope you enjoyed your time in Wiseacres, and that you come again soon!
OOC: Under no circumstances should you RP for the Shopkeeper. Wiseacres is a very large store, and I may be busy with another customer, please wait your turn patiently, everyone will get the proper amount of attention.
Invisibility Cloaks, Flying carpets and timeturners will not be sold to underage children, and must go through Ministry clearance. The shopkeeper reserves the right to deny sale of any item she deems worthy.

"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. | |

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

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?"

"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. Quote:

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.

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.

"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."
