Prices
Small appliances can be very inexpensive, such as a basic can opener, electric kettle, or coffee maker which may cost only a few U.S. dollars, or very expensive, such as an elaborate espresso maker, which may cost several thousand U.S. dollars. Most homes contain several cheaper home appliances, with perhaps a few more expensive appliances, such as a high-end microwave oven or mixer.

Were tattooed the prices of ale;

For the sake of the blind
