CAPITALIST PI... I mean, *yes* it is quaint, isn't it? Couldn't possibly part with it though. Great sentimental value, you know how these things affect us bourgeois.

Oh, I'm sure it's OK. Remember, Lenin himself set up the New Economic Policy which introduced free markets into Communist Russia.

So I'm sure he'd approve!

Ermm, but this was my grandmother's.

What a confusing array of stock you have. How can you ever decide? Don't you yearn for less choice?

Hey, the customer is always right!

Sure, let me remove these cheap items from display. You'd only be disappointed if you bought one of these.

Now, why don't you think about investing in this top-of-the-range merchandise?

BUt what do you do when the workers can't make up their mind? Surley they can't afford such things in an economic system such as yours?

I always remove such items as are *just* below the likely income level of the customer.

No point trying to oversell the workers, I mean, 'valued customers'.

I just want them to be happy when they finally 'own' their 'investment'.
