Dear Acquaintance,

I don't think it is too much to ask for 2 complimentary entries into the 1-mile fun run in exchange for your design needs you have requested. It will easily take me 2-3 hours to complete your task (or longer), which, at my normal rate would be cost much more than the entry to your race.

So, no, I'm not going to help you out. I have too much work to do. Need to pay the bills then play with my kids. Let someone else waste their evening on your project.
