Beetles were $1400-1600 new back then. They were "still under a buck a pound" (about $1900) in the early '70's.

Get out your calculator and figure it out for fun*.


*fun is not guaranteed. offer to have fun is not valid in states where fun is taxed or prohibited.

Funny

the correct answer is 41% more. 15oz would have been closer to 40% more, althought it would be just a tad shy. But, if you did the math wrong, you might think that 15.2 was 30% more than 10.75, but what you'd really be saying is that 10.75oz is 30% less than 15.2oz (if they made the package smaller).

When I was in college, I worked at a place that had certain items that were always priced at 60% off. When things actually went on sale, there were 2 options. Option 1, take 60% off and then take another 10% off. Option 2, take 66% off.

Which option is the better deal, and which option do most people think is the better deal?

I have only heard the name, but have never seen a photo of one. I do know that they are a Manx Style with a tub and hood. Do you have one or pictures of one?
