Reaching a Savings Goal Together

You and your sister, Anika, spent several months saving for a sofa for your shared home in Bramble Flats, a prairie town in Saskatchewan. You are remembering the day you finally visited a furniture showroom with enough money to buy it. Draw on a memory or create your own story. You have 30 seconds to prepare and 60 seconds to speak.
