Passage: Just recently , the light in my hallway went out , and since my younger brother is afraid of sleeping in the dark , this became an unnecessary problem . In order to calm him down , my dad went to the nearest hardware store to buy a brand new light bulb . He needed to make sure that the light bulb was the right size , so he took the old , burned out light bulb with him to compare . He then grabbed a nearby chair so that he could stand on to reach the empty socket where the bulb would go . He had me turn off the light switch , which would make sure that he would not get electrocuted while putting the bulb on or burned when it turns on . After less than 5 minutes , he is finished screwing in the bulb . We flip the switch to see if it works , and it does . My brother was now relieved . Question: When did they pay for it? Option1: when dad purchased Option2: After they got home
