   Carol 1 wasn't born rich, but she married rich. She wanted for nothing. Yet she was always trying to get a little bit more. One day she bought a small, expensive purse. She bought it just for a party. She planned to show it off. Then she planned to return it to the store. However, after the party, she accidentally 2 smudged the purse. When she tried to remove the smudge, it got bigger. Undaunted, she took the purse back to the Fifth Avenue 3 store. The sales clerk went and got the manager. The manager pointed 4 at the smudge. "What's this?" he asked. Carol said, "Oh, that was there when I bought it. That's why I'm returning it." The manager gave her a long, cold look. He said, "Madam, we would never sell a purse in this condition. If you like, I'll give you the phone number of our midtown leather cleaner."
