“Better Stock up on Oil and Band-aids, Mom!”

Bean has had such an exciting day. He got to negotiate with a Motorcycle Builder and Shop Owner today for a little mini-bike. Dave asked him, as he’s asked him several times in the past, “How much do you have in your pocket?” Well, this time, Bean was prepared. He’d asked his dad moments before they walked into the shop to give him $5.00 to hold in his pocket, for just this reason. Bean offered Dave all the money he had on him to get that bike.  When Dave tried to hold out on a bargain, Bean came back with, “Dude, you’re negotiating with a five-year old.”
