The Guessing Game!


Nerd version. But not really, because pure guessing can't be really nerdy. In any case, every time my family goes to a restaurant, or more oftentimes, grocery shopping at Costco or Ranch 99 (or anywhere else we buy a ton of food) I like to guess how much we'll spend when we're in line. I don't calculate the prices and mentally round and add stuff up in my head, I legitimately just look at our cart, and go, "That looks like about $67." I'm usually within $5, because I usually round to the nearest ten.

I had my closest guess today, when we went to go eat at Elephant Bar. I almost forgot to do it, but my aunt was like, "I think we spent around $60 today." And so I just piped up, "I think it's 70... 8... dollars." It turned out to be $78.14. =] It's just something random I do, but every time I'm close, it seems like a little victory. xD
