Festive

Arielle: "I want one of those pretty, white light up deer for the front yard."

Rick: "I don't think so."

Arielle: "Not this year, just one day. Look - our neighbors have one!"

Rick: "So what's the difference? Pretend that it's ours."

Christmas-y

Arielle: "I know something you can get me for Christmas."

Rick: "What's that?"

Arielle: "You might not like it. It's...shoes." (Like she needs another pair of shoes.)

Rick (tentatively): "Okay..."

Arielle: "Here, I'll show you." She proceeds to show him the TOMS website* online, raves about TOMS shoes for 5 minutes, and points to the exact pair she desires.

Arielle (happily pointing to the banner on their website): "And see, for every pair of shoes you buy, they give a pair to a child in need."

Rick: "Well that just tells me they're overpriced. I'm buying a pair of shoes for you and a pair for someone else!"
