Monkey Business

Once upon a time in a village, a man appeared and announced to the villagers that he would buy monkeys for Rs10. The villagers seeing that there were many monkeys around, went out to the forest and started catching them. The man bought thousands at Rs10 and as supply started to diminish, the villagers stopped their effort. He further announced that he would now buy at Rs.20.

This gentleman went bargain-hunting and chanced upon a well-established shop. When he found a branded shirt that cost half the price of what was being sold back home, he rubbed his hands in glee. Having been warned of cheap shirts, he began to scrutinise the shirt carefully and smiled when he saw a label that was sewn on the shirt. It read " Guarantee No Shrink ". Convinced that he had indeed found a great bargain, he went ahead and bought half a dozen shirts. Back at the hotel, he took out the shirts and sent them to the laundry. He was eager to put them on and see some envious faces in his tour group. When the shirts returned from the hotel laundry, he was shock that all of them had shrunk by at least three sizes !
