LOVE! jk. There's a lot you can buy with $100. OK let me try to break it down for you in numbers:
- You can get about 4 standard detailed car washes.
- 8-10 shampoo bottles
- appx 1 week worth of "eating out fast food"
- 1 bottle of perfume like.. Calvin Klein, A|X, etc
- 1 expensive wallet (ie. Coach) but not a purse
- 2 pairs of good brand shoes
- about 6 blouses from "not-too-cheap" clothing stores
- couple of pairs of good jeans
- a nice watch (maybe from Guess or Fossil)
- a gold bracelet
- a dinner for 2 at a somewhat nice upscale restaurant
- a dinner for 4 or 5 at a normal restaurant
- a kid's bicycle
- a swing, the kind you put in your backyard
- a semi-nice wireless phone (but only if you hook up with a plan, because a phone itself costs like $400 and up. I know!)
- 3 or 4 nice work shirts for your boyfriend
- 1 evening gown
- 3 or 4 casual cocktail dresses
OH yeah, you can buy about 99 things if you go to a 99cents store, haha. Before tax, of course. Do they have 99cents stores in Europe? LOL.
Well there's a ton more you can get here with $100. I know everything's way more expensive in Europe. Times like this I'm lucky to live in America. Hehe.

You can fill up your gas tank 2.5 times with $100.
Twice if you own a SUV or Truck.
You can buy approximately 10 tickets and go to the movie theatre.
You can buy 18 packs of cigarettes.
Hope this give you some idea what 100 dollars buys you in the U.S.

Which country are you from? That makes a huge difference because we don't know what the difference is in our currency valuations.
In general, though, here in the US a $100 can buy you anything from 5 pairs of shoes from a discount store, or a meal for one in a big city restaurant. Let's put it this way: for $100, it probably wouldn't be worth the cost of airfare to get here.

Well, with hundred dollars I can buy many things but it depends what. For example: some CD's, clothes, shoes, snacks, jewelry, ect. For the most part, people need more than $100 to live in a nice place. The best thing to do if you have hundred dollars is invested or save it in a bank account. Bye.

No, if I honestly were prosperous i'd however be gazing wal-mart...My mom once spent four hundred.00 on a pair of sun shades and the broke a pair of months later...purely a waste of money.
