LIFE SKILLS                                • Leadership and Initiative



        When  your  parents/elders  buy  things  of  daily  need  from  a  supermarket  or  a
        shop, they get a bill. A bill or a cash memo has the details of items, their rate

        per  unit  and  total  cost  of  each  item  and  finally  the  amount  we  have  to  pay.
        We must take a bill because it helps us in getting replacement of the thing or

        cash back for defective goods.
