Ella grabbed the bag of clothing items that she and her mother had sorted out to sell at the market and set off.
"I'm heading to the market; I'll be back soon!" she announced as she left the room.
"Okay, be careful! Love you!" replied her mother from the living room.
Ella carried the bag, skipping excitedly to the market. When she arrived, she noticed that a few people were slowly trickling in, and she quickly walked up to the counter.
"Hello! I'd like to sell a few items!" said Ella cheerfully.
The shopkeeper returned her greeting and took the bag of items to inspect. Nodding her head in approval, she said, "Good, these clothes seem to be in good shape, and we can accept them. We've had a few cases already of people trying to sell used, ripped clothing, who got angry when we turned them away."
