Exact Change

There are two high schools fairly close to my office so figuring out when and where you are eating has to take that into account. I was standing in line today, behind a gaggle of students and I couldn't help but laugh at one conversation stream. One of the girls only had $3 to eat with so she asked what she could get. At least 5 different options were given to her, including the exact amount of money she would be spending. Things like, "Well, you could get X since it will only cost $2.47."

One of the few things I remember from high school is the fact that a slice of pizza and a soda was $2.99 at La Tomato. There was much gnashing of teeth when they raised the price to $3.25 since you had to worry about having change.
