Bloke goes into a hardware shop to purchase some particular items. The Assistant says one will cost 50p and ten will cost £1. So he says "I will have two hundred please" and he is charged £1.50. What did he buy?

I'm sorry to steal the answer but he bought digits: 1 (one digit) for 50p, 10 (two digits) for 50p x 2 = £1, and 200 (three digits) for 50p x 3 = £1.50

Yes, he purchased 3 numbers for his front door.
1 was 50p
2 was £1
so '2' + '0' +'0' = £1.50
lol

numbers.
if he lived at number 1,he would buy one item and it would cost 50 p.
if he lived at n° 10, he would buy a one and a zero. (a pound)
he lives at nuber 200 so he needs a two and two noughts (three numbers, one pound fifty)
