DS[5.9yrs] has two wobbly teeth which I can forsee being out within the next couple of days. So what is the going rate for tooth fairy teeth??

£2.50

My son told me that the tooth fairy brings his friends £2.50

I believed him and £2.50 it is.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

I think it's actually a quid.

£2 here for first tooth then £1.

I used to get 10p

mankyscotslass · 12/07/2009 09:59

It's £1 here, although I may go up to £2 for the larger ones!

DS's friend gets £5 from his parents.

Then £5 from his grandparents.

£1, £1, £1

Stand firm

Only together can we beat this creeping inflation

The tooth fairy has got realy lax lately round our way.
Sometimes I forget she doesn't come the first night and we have to hope I'm not too tipsy she isn't too busy.
And she pays a quid for a nice tooth

My DS told me that our tooth fairy was mean, so it must be me!!

saintmaybe £1.00 until the unions get involved. Those that give £5.00, think of the others in the class. If we want to preserve this tradition every one should be giving the same. Toothfairy should not be effected by the whims of the market!
I don't get grandparents, one min they say your spoiling the kids, next you find out your kid has had 2 milkshakes, cake, sweets and watched telly all in one day.

Lol at a 'nice tooth', purepurple!

Starbear, we have our own union. This is our shop floor. You weren't thinking that we were the management, were you?

Starbear · 12/07/2009 10:49

I haven't done commerce since 5th year. Fairy is the worker, making fairy castles with teeth, child holds the commodity (teeth)we pay for the happiness of our children via the tooth fairy so I think we are the management. Go on tell it another way?

Nemoandthefishes · 12/07/2009 10:54

£1 it will be then!!

between 50p and a pound, £2.50 only if it is a gold tooth!

I am baffled by the £5 for a tooth???!!!

saintmaybe · 12/07/2009 11:01

starbear!

saintmaybe · 12/07/2009 11:03

Shit, I guess that makes this the CBI, not a union meeting. How did that happen?

fuzzywuzzy · 12/07/2009 11:04

50p, because they're pretty......

Starbear · 12/07/2009 11:06

Sorry when you become a parent you sadly become the authority that you fought against as a kid.

Takver · 12/07/2009 14:11

50p round here

UnquietDad · 12/07/2009 14:15

£1 a tooth up here, and a Special Letter from the tooth fairy. (Tooth fairy logos/letterheads available via Google images. )

saintmaybe · 12/07/2009 14:29

Ach to your tooth fairy and her special letters. When dd found out about such things from the kids next door, our tooth fairy had to write a letter of apology in gold ink on tiny paper and leave it under a bush in the garden, thus sparking off an onerous correspondance lasting a week.
