"Hey. How's everything?"
"Lousy."
"Oh no. Why?"
"Business is terrible. I don't know what I'm going to do. I'm afraid I'm going to lose the shop."
"That's horrible... Hey. Have you ever thought of getting online and opening a webshop to supplement what you do?"
"I don't know the first thing about the internet. I wouldn't know what to do."
"Well, I can help you get a site together, a really simple one to start. And I know of this company that has some great ecommerce software. We can use that to set up the finer points of it all."
"Like what?"
"Well, the software will help you set up a really nice online shopping basket for your customers. And then you can use it to set up a way to accept credit cards from your customers, so that they can order immediately from right there on your site."
"I wouldn't know how to do all of that!"
"You don't have to. This software makes it really easy, and all you have to do is customize it to look the way you want it to."
"Sounds like a huge job."
"Nope. You can get it all set up within hours of having purchased the software."
"Are you sure?"
"Yep. Used it myself, and have had great results."
"Well, when do we get started?"

Big Savings
She'd been an Apple user for as long as she'd used computers at all. It was unreasonable to even imagine she'd use anything else than her old trusty Mac.
But the lightning had struck, and left her computer fried. And she didn't have a lot of spare cash sitting around to repair or replace it. She was going to have to figure out how to do something with the few dollars she'd managed to scrape together. That was the dilemma she'd shared with her two best friends.
The first had actually mentioned the "D" word... that cheap brand of computers that are pretty reliable too... and that was now sell for some pretty low prices....
"You can take the ad away. It doesn't matter how cheap they are. I don't do Windows."
"You are so stubborn."
"Yes. I know. Molly, no ideas from you?"
"Well, actually, I was just thinking about Ebates. It's great coupon shopping online. You can save anywhere from 3-25%, and I know they sell Apple computers there. I bet you could bring it down to as cheap as one of those other offers, if you shopped at Ebates."
"Well, there ya go then! So, which of you is going to let me use your computer so I can go online and buy it?"
"Well, you can use mine, but it is a PC, you know."
"Alright. I'll suffer through it for the greater good."
