About 2.69 GBP.

The best $5 I ever spent was on assorted lottery tickets. I won $40 on one of them and have never bought tickets before or since. ;)

What can I say? That you love me, for one :mad2:

Anyway, £2.69? Um...well I probably threw that much in coins worth 1p and 2p at people on carnival floats. I hit a fat guy dressed as a frog in the eye. Yeah. :)

Oh, fine. I spent it on a billion and one packages of ramen noodles. Okay, maybe not that many, but there was a sale, so it was a lot.

Best Five quid spent...uhm, Could be on a nice Get Up Kids album I found in the closing down sale of a local Virgin megastore.

I probably spent a fiver on something else too, but that is the only thing I can think of right now.

A while ago, I met my friend Bridget. The first night I met her I bought her a margarita ($4 + $1 tip). We went on to become good friends, and she helped me get the job that I have now doing biomedical research, and I love my job. Best five dollars I ever spent.

I think it was some insane amount like 24 for 2.50. So that would be...48 for $5. I'm smarts, I can do the maths.
