Sam is a very conscientious (careful about spending) shopper. In fact, each week Sam plans a shopping list for the grocery store. His shopping list is so detailed that each item also has the aisle it can be found in next to it. Sam’s friends tease him about his rigid shopping methods. But, Sam doesn’t mind. He feels like he’s the smartest of his friends because he never wastes his money or purchases frivolous items.

Today was a special day in Ms. Smith’s class. Some of the children were walking around the room, some of them were standing in small groups, and some of them were at their desks, putting finishing touches on cardboard mailboxes. After coloring a cool flame on the side of his racecar mailbox, Johnny hopped off his chair, strutted over to Veronica’s desk, and dropped a small white envelope into her princess castle mailbox. Veronica blushed and played with her hair. While this was happening, Bartleby was frantically trying to put a small white envelope into everyone’s mailbox. After giving one to Ms. Smith, Bartleby pulled out a medium-sized red envelope from his pocket. He blushed and tried to put it in Veronica’s mailbox, but it wouldn’t quite fit. Bartleby struggled with it for a few seconds and then ran off with the envelope. Veronica rolled her eyes and popped her gum.
