Twins Otis and Odessa were very excited about Thanksgiving break. Their grandmother was coming and they knew she would bring presents for the upcoming Christmas holiday. She arrived on November 23 and everyone was glad to see her. The next day after the Thanksgiving meal was served she called the twins in and handed them an envelope. They opened the envelope and took out a note, several coupons, and a check. The twins read with excitement. This is what the note said:

Otis and Odessa,
I am giving each of you $200.00 to spend on Christmas gifts for your family. You must buy at least one gift for your mom, your dad and your little brother. You have one weekend to spend the money and you must use all of it. Be sure to use the attached coupons to get the most out of your money. Buy lunch for yourselves at the mall and use the coupon enclosed. If you do as I said, you’ll each receive $200 of your very own. Love ya,
Grandma

The two received:
a coupon for 20% off the total purchase at Toys R Us
a coupon for $15 off any purchase of $50 or more at Best Buy
a coupon for $20 off any purchase of $75 or more at Wal Mart
a coupon for one free meal with the purchase of another one at McDonalds
