whats up with the tooth fairy prices sky rocketing? what am i looking at by the time shiloh hits her tooth-losing years? i want to be as prepared as possible so i don't pass out or somthing when it starts happaning at my house.
Well. The going rate is a toonie. However, there are a few catches to that. IF the tooth fairy forgets one night, it doubles. Now your at 4 bucks! If the tooth has to be pulled, it's 5 bucks. Now if the tooth fairy forgets on a night when a pulled tooth is under the pillow...you see where I'm going. Last week I had to pretend to call her while my daughter listened and ask her why she didn't come. Then I turned to my daughter and informed her that her room was too messy and the tooth fairy was worried she'd trip and hurt herself. She still had to pay 4 bucks. But the bedroom got cleaned.
