The old seller scratched his chin, contemplating the proposition. He wasn’t one to back down from a challenge, especially when it came to haggling over his prized eggs. With a twinkle in his eye, he decided to play along.
“Madam, you drive a hard bargain,” he said, feigning reluctance. “But I like your spirit. How about this: I’ll give you six eggs for $1, and I’ll even throw in a bonus seventh egg for free!”

The woman raised an eyebrow, a sly smile forming on her lips. “Well, now you’re talking! Seven eggs for a buck? That sounds like a cracking good deal!”

They both chuckled at the egg-citing turn of events as the old seller carefully selected the freshest eggs and placed them in a carton. He handed it over to the delighted customer, who couldn’t believe her luck.

“Thank you, sir!” she exclaimed. “You’ve made my day, and I promise to make the most egg-cellent omelet with these.”

The old seller tipped his hat with a grin. “It’s been a pleasure doing business with you, Madam. Just remember, when it comes to eggs, I always hatch a good deal.”

With a playful wink and a nod, they parted ways, both with a newfound appreciation for the art of bargaining and a memorable story to share about the day they cracked a deal over a dozen eggs
