More About pricing

Long ago, people traded things. They did not use money. They would swap a cow for some rice. Now, we use money to buy things. Prices help us know how much money we need.

Every day, we see prices when we go to stores. We look at prices to see what we can buy. If we want a toy, we check the price first. This helps us plan how much to spend.

In the future, prices may change more. Some stores might use apps to show prices. We might even see prices that change each hour!
