QUALITY WILL COST YOU

An American couple decided to celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary in Paris. They arrived in the early afternoon, checked in at the Hilton and while the wife unpacked their suitcases, washed her hair and did a few more chores, the husband took a stroll in Montmartre. It was a hot day, the flight was tiring and soon he felt that he needed a drink. While having a glass of wine at a bistro, he fell to talking to a charming Parisienne. He liked her a lot, she seemed to like him too and the only matter they could not agree on was the price. She asked for 500 francs, he offered 100 francs. No deal was struck and they parted with mutual regret.

In the evening the couple went out for dinner at an expensive restaurant on the Champs Elysées. Suddenly, who does the husband see at one of the tables? His charming conversationalist from the afternoon stroll. She saw him too, gave the wife a cursory look and when the couple passed her table, whispered to the husband:

“You see what you get for 100 francs.”
