Pocket money is the money given for little expenses(开销).This amount of money can be given by parents everyday, every week or every month.I get 20 dollars a month from my parents.
Mum's birthday was coming.I wanted to buy her a beautiful dress that would cost 115 dollars, but I only had 60 dollars.I decided to do small jobs to earn some money so that I could buys.I went outside to the garage(汽车库)and asked Dad if I could wash his car.“Dad, may I wash the car? I need some money.”
“Certainly, my child.I'll pay you 10 dollars.”
After I cleaned the car, I got 10 dollars.Next I went to the neighbour, Mrs.White.Her dog, Henry, needed a bath.
After I bathed Henry, she gave me 35 dollars.I was tired, wet and cold, but I still needed to work for money.I decided to go to Dad again.“Dad, can I clean the garden? ”
“Yes, I will pay you 10 dollars for that.”
So, after I cleaned the garden I had 115 dollars.The next day, I bought the dress for Mum.She said it was the best birthday present ever!
This experience makes me understand that it's not easy to earn money and I should make good use of my pocket money.
