Only once he's tired of his new purchase can the common folk finally buy that item for themselves.

However, the other day, the king bought a new item that had him all but commanding his subjects to buy one of the same item as soon as possible. Circle that item.

In a far-off country, there's a king whose favourite pastime is showing off the latest possessions he's collected. The subjects of the kingdom are forbidden from purchasing new items until the king has owned them for a month or so. Only once he's tired of his new purchase can the common folk finally buy that item for themselves.

However, the other day, the king bought a new item that had him all but commanding his subjects to buy one as soon as possible. Circle that item.
