My little one isn’t even teething yet, but my wife and I were talking the other day about what we used to get from the Tooth Fairy when we were kids.

Has the Tooth Fairy kept up with inflation?

What are your little ones finding under their pillows?

      Wow! $20! That just made me go look up how many baby teeth kids lose: 20. So you’re in for $400

      We went down this route, and it’s one of my big regrets. Was AU$2 a tooth and a wish, which started as an easy and cheap soft toy (think a couple of bucks max). But it’s turned into $2/tooth cumulative, ie. Tooth 10 gets $20, tooth 11 gets $22 etc, and a wish… Cue late night runs to Kmart and lots of grumbling about why we are doing this.

        SEE! I panicked and just started throwing money at the problem! I’m barely middle class on a good day so it wasn’t the best idea.
