Dialogue 2-7: At the Post Office
POSTAL CLERK: What can I do for you today
CAROL: I need to mail this package to New York, please
POSTAL CLERK: OK, let’s see how much it weighs … it’s about five pounds. If you send it express, it will get there tomorrow. Or you can send it priority and it will get there by Saturday
CAROL: Saturday is fine. How much will that be
POSTAL CLERK: $11.35 [eleven thirty-five]. Do you need anything else
CAROL: Oh, yeah! I almost forgot. I need a book of stamps, too
POSTAL CLERK: OK, your total comes to $20.35 [twenty dollars and thirty-five cents].
