$4.99

A young woman walks up to my cash register and hands me a pink and black magnet.


"Can you tell me how much this is?" She asks.


"Yes, it is $4.99." I say.


"Ok, I don't want it, that's too much."

I put the magnet beside me and ring up the rest of her college girl groceries. After she leaves the store, I read the magnet.

To the world you may be one person,
but to one person you may be the world.

This girl's world isn't worth $4.99 plus tax.
