Hey! A riddle that will really mess with your brain....so in ur face. :biggrin:

The Thompson triplets were sitting around watching television.

The reception was so bad that they decided

to throw away their TV and go buy a new one.

They checked their wallets and found that they only had $10 each.

So they took their $30 to a second hand store.

They met a salesman who told them he had a TV for sale for $30.

So they gave him $30 and took the TV.

However, when the salesman went in the back of the store

he realized that the price was supposed to be $25.

So he ran back outside to give them their $5 back.

But when he realized they had each paid $10

he didn't want to make it confusing so he only gave them $1 back each

and he kept the other two dollars for himself.

OK, let's recap. They paid $10 each which is $30 total.

The salesman gave them back $1 each and he kept $2 for himself.

So they actually spent $10 each minus $1 each.

Which means they spent $9 each.

9 X 3 = $27,

The salesman kept $2.

That's a total of $29.

Where's the other dollar?

:laughlong:
