Hello, Tdol, how are you? Thanks a lot for all your replies!

Well, I was thinking yesterday about my sentence. I thought
of the "HIGH and LOW prices" of the goods in a supermarket. Can I use the first adjective with the fixed expresion "pay the price" in my sentence?
It would be like this:


E.X. I hope youŽll all pay the price as well,
the high price they pay.

2.- IŽve used the adverb "as well" as well in my sentence . Is that fine? I know
I donŽt need it, but my question about it is:

Am I really padding
my sentence out for the sake of it? I mean,
Is superfluous using that adverb here?


Thanks again and again!
