Buying Eggs

Sue asked me to buy some eggs at the local mini-mart, so I walked a couple blocks downhill to a store the size of a large walk-in closet. I asked the store owner if he has eggs, and he asked me how many "kilos" I wanted. I said I wanted 12 eggs, but he insisted on kilos. Finally, I talked him into giving me 12 eggs, in a small plastic bag. I'm not used to buying eggs by the kilo. The total was 15 pesos, or about a dollar.
