- NYC bus or subway fare…$2.50
- Honey bun & soda from the bodega…$2.00
- Bottled war and apple from same bodega…$2.00
- Almost any book (unless you go to the $1 stand at Strands)
- Gallon of milk…$3.99
- Half gallon of mlk…$2.69
- One use of washing machine and 15 minutes of the dryer…$2.00 to $2.25
- 8 pack of toilet paper…$3.99
- slice of cheese pizza in Manhattan… $2.50
