Market Girl

A woman gives her housegirl the following list of items to buy in the market...

Rice 200
Meat 500
Beans 300

Total 1000.

An hour passed and the house girl is yet to return. Angry and worried at the same time, the woman went searching for her. She saw her housemaid sitting at the corner of a makeshift shop in the market and the following conversation ensued...

WOMAN: Why haven't you returned home?!

HOUSEMAID: Ma, I've bought everything you asked me to buy except one item. I have gone through all stalls in the market but they said they it's not available.

WOMAN: And what's item is that?

HOUSEMAID: Total ma.
