    I just had this idea that i think is very interesting:

    Show us what you can buy with 1 dollar in you country.

    For example, in my country Peru, I can buy:

    3 bottles of Pepsi of 500ml each.

    I also can buy 6 packs of Lays.

    EDIT: Please tell us your country too :)

    I can't get anything to great for a dollar in the part of Canada I live in.

    $1 each:
    week day newspaper
    can of pop (soda)
    bag of chips
    candy bar
    coffee from a corner store

    We have "dollar stores" on every corner where you can buy cheaply made toys, food, household items etc

    Maybe if i'm lucky a can of coke(330ml). But probably not even that. It's worth about £0.50 so 50 penny sweets?

    I'm from Scotland.
