Peter: Jane, what’s that magazine you’re reading?

Jane: It’s one of those free magazine you can pick up around town. It’s got some pretty interesting articles in it.

Peter: Wake up, Jane! It’s not free at all. Look at it: It’s all advertising.

Jane: Maybe so, but if the advertising pays for the magazine, then I don’t have to.

Peter: Sure you do. The cost of the ads is built into the products.

Jane: Still, I think advertising serves a useful purpose. It tells me about new products.

Peter: A lot of companies spend more money on advertising than on making quality products.

Jane: But some commercials are really fascinating. Besides, you have the freedom to choose not to look at the ads.

Peter: Well, it’s time to cook dinner.
