Unit 98 Fresh Lemonade

B : How can I earn some extra money this summer?

G : Why don't we start a lemonade stand, Will?

B : That's a great idea, Mary, but do you think we will make any money?

G : If we set up in an area with a lot of traffic on a hot day, we will get plenty of customers.

We can charge $1.50 per cup. B : That sounds a little expensive.

G : But we need to charge that much to cover our expenses.

By charging $1.50 per cup, we can make good money with our lemonade stand. B : OK.

What do we need to get started? G : We need the ingredients to make lemonade, so we need lemons, sugar, and water.

We need something to keep our money in, a sign to advertise the lemonade, paper cups, and a cardboard box to use as a stand. B : Should we sell food to go with the lemonade?

G : I think that would be too complicated.

We would need a permit and either a cooler or stove. We should stick to just selling lemonade. B : You're right, let's just keep it simple.

G : OK, let's get set up and think of a plan to get some customers and make some sales!

B : Why don't I attract the customers and you serve the lemonade?

G : Sounds good to me.
