Hey, do you want to go shopping with

me? I want to buy some new clothes.

It sounds great. So, how much do

you usually spend on clothes?

Sure. Where do you want to go?

How about Aeon Mall? It just opened last

week.

About 1000$ per month. I think it is very

important for people to wear nice

clothing.
