What Price Wool?
Mrs. Morris Siegel beckoned to a salesman in Bergdorf Goodman’s, pointed to a white wool designer dress on a mannequin, and said, “Hey, Sonny Boy, so how much is the dress on that store dummy over there?”
“That dress is $899.95, Madam,” sneered the rather snotty salesman.
“Oy! For $99.95, I could get the same dress at S. Klein’s downtown!”
“But, Madam,” said the salesman, “You’ll find that the dress at Klein’s is recycled wool. This original is 100% pure virgin wool.”
“Nu! So for $800 I should be caring what the lambs do at night?”
