This teaser was a little too easy. Not being offensive, just trying to give constructive criticism.
No offense, but there are some young kids on this site too, so once in a while, I go for easy
It may be easy, but at least it's something new!
It was new, it was easy, but sorry to say it wasn't very good.
I love this kind of teaser, even though this one was a little too easy. But it is a good one to help kids think logically. I must say I really liked it. Thanks for posting.
I actually liked the fact it was easy
I like it, I just don't like that it doesn't state that none of them are free. $0 is a whole dollar incrememnt.

Well, thank you to those who liked it. I try to make easy ones from time to time due to the various ages in this site. Thanks again.
well i thought it was great and just because you have superiority in age does not make you smart
i knew a 10 year old that was smarter than the majority of the high schoolers they associated with

This little kid never does any teaser that is math, so I did not even try. I always like easy teasers so I should have tried, but maybe next time.
Sorry, far too simple for me; had to read over the instructions and check my answer!
Maybe a Hint could cater to the juniors in a more advanced teaser, and still maintain some fun-factor for the adults?

I liked it a lot. Had to use logic which is nice as I don't get many of the brain teasers using that. In fact so many are way too hard for me so this was great.
Fun, easy and entertaining teaser; I got them all very quickly.
Glad you liked it. Gotta have some more simple ones for the young-uns
