Would you categorise each of the below statements as an acceptance that gives rise to a contract? Why/why not?

Note: Please give the answer following Legal Reasoning (4 steps: Issue, Law/Rule, Application, Conclusion) 1. Felicity sells vintage items at the weekend beachfront markets. Larry is interested in a 1960's teapot on sale for $80 but needs time to make up his mind. Felicity says to him that he can have the teapot for the discounted price of $50. She says: 'Here's my telephone number. If you decide to buy it during the week, call me on my mobile. I'm planning on going to a different market next weekend'. Larry discovers that Felicity also sells vintage goods at the midweek markets, and having decided to buy the teapot, sends his sister Meg to the midweek markets. Meg walks up to Felicity and says: 'Larry has decided he wants the teapot. Here's the $50'. 2. Carla is impressed by the quality of Janet's knitting and wants her to be a regular supplier for her shop. Carla says to Janet: 'I want you to be one of my regular suppliers. I will buy 10 hand-knitted woollen blankets at $120 each, every Saturday, if you can deliver them to my shop 'Home Comforts', by 8 am'. Janet says 'Sure! Thanks! Do we start this Saturday?' 3. Susie goes to the local beachfront market looking for gifts for her two grandmothers. She sees some cosy hand-knitted blankets sold by Janet. The price tag on each blanket states: 'Hand-knitted blanket from pure wool - made with love on the Gold Coast - $150'. Susie falls in love with the blue ones. She reaches into her handbag, taking out her wallet, and says to Janet: 'I'll take two of those, please!'
