Picture this: you’re at a friend’s housewarming party, everyone’s having a great time, and then… BAM! Your clumsy, intoxicated self accidentally breaks your friend’s brand new TV. Talk about a party foul! Of course, you apologize profusely and promise to pay for the damages. But when you find out the TV is on sale for $80 less than what your friend paid, do you pay the full price or just the sale price? That’s the dilemma our TV-toppling protagonist found themselves in. Let’s dive into the story and see how it all unfolded…

TV Tragedy: Full Price or Sale Price?
Our clumsy party-goer found themselves in a pickle after breaking their friend’s new TV. They promised to pay for it, but when they discovered it was on sale for $80 less, the friend insisted on receiving the full price. Our protagonist tried to compromise by offering to drive to the store, buy the TV, and help carry it, but the friend wouldn’t budge. Eventually, they learned the friend had borrowed money to buy the TV and just wanted to repay the loan. So, in the name of friendship, our TV-breaker decided to pay the full price. But what do you think? Was it fair to pay the full price or should they have only paid the sale price? Let’s see what the internet has to say about this situation…
