After they’ve shown an effect to you a few times they might be willing to show you how it is done. You can usually learn a magic trick or two for free from your friends who know a bit of magic.
Common magic that a friend might teach you to do are card tricks. When you have a deck of cards out to play a game, it is easy to turn the conversation around to magic tricks done with cards. If your friend knows any, he or she will probably want to do them for you. You will be suitably impressed, and then if you let them know you want to learn to do the card tricks yourself, they might be willing to teach you to do the magic trick for free. Learning the trick isn’t hard, generally speaking. Just pay attention to the key points that your friend teaches you, as usually those points are the ones that can be tricky for a learner.
