What can I get with my extra 13 dollars a week

I have noticed for the past few weeks that I don' have as much federal tax coming out of my check. It seems the government feels that the extra 13 dollars will help stimulate the economy. So what can I buy each week for 13 dollars.

1)One Large Pizza- I can get a large pizza but not with everything on it. I will have to go with just two toppings.

2)6 Gallons of Gas- Right now gas is about $2.00 a gallon where I live. So I could roughly drive around aimlessly for another 3 hours a week.

3)One Movie a Week- I could go to the movies and see one film a week. This will also include some popcorn-small. No soda though.

4)Lottery tickets- Might as well invest in something. I could get 13 one dollar tickets, 6 two dollar tickets, or just go for the big prizes and get one ten dollar ticket.

5)Just combine everything. One gallon of gas = $2.00. Two slices of pizza = $3.00
Rent one movie = $2.00 Get three lottery tickets with the rest = One three dollar ticket = $3.00 One two dollar ticket = $2.00 and One one dollar ticket = $1.00.

Now that's the ticket
