A man goes shopping because he needs something, his purpose is sett
18、led and decided in advance. He knows what he wants and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration.All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they went. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying i
