What's the Difference?

Label the sections of a spinner "$2," "$3," "$5," and "$10."

One group member spins the spinner. Then, working in pairs, try to find two items that differ in price by about the amount on the spinner. Look through newspapers and/or magazines to find prices. The pair that comes closest to the difference shown on the spinner wins the round. Play several rounds, with a different group member spinning the spinner each time.
