Buying Tools at a Hardware Store

Chuck: Just remember that we have a lot to accomplish today, so let’s just get what we need and go, okay?

Ayaka: Sure, we just need a few tools for our DIY project. The Power tools are over there.

Chuck: Whoa, we’re not getting power tools. We just need a few simple Hand tools: a Hammer, a Wrench, a Chisel, some Pliers – and maybe an extra Screwdriver or two.

Ayaka: We would get the job done so much more quickly if we had power tools. Instead of a hammer, we should get a Nail gun. We also need a Power drill, and hey, a Sander and a Table saw.

Chuck: A table saw?! We’re doing some simple Repairs, not Remodeling our house.

Ayaka: You never know when you need a good saw and I’ve always wanted a table saw.

Chuck: Other women want clothes and jewelry, and you want power tools?

Ayaka: That right. You should be Counting your lucky stars!
