How much can you be bought for?

So, I was just watching one of those Japanese game shows and got thinking that maybe a poll would be fun.

[hobo]eclipse man, no alcohol, ketchup or any other condiments are allowed.

kris23 - good on ya. You'd be prepared to do 60!!! I reckon they should run a college grant system where they offer this type of system for ordinary folks like you and me.

Meanwhile Judas would eat them instead of caviar and champagne. (Maybe a Canadian thing lol j/k)

Sadly, DH doesn't allow for editing of polls. The management [at DH] should eat a plate of roaches for their lack of foresight I think.

I put 12.5, but really, I'd probably do it for 2.5.

500 is one paycheck from my old job, I know how fast that amount disappears on bills and rent. Maybe it's just me, but I'd like to have the aftertaste out of my mouth before the money runs dry.

I'd do it for $500, if I could be reasonably sure I wasn't going to pick up any odd diseases.

2500, but 1000 is probably fine with me.

Doesn't seem that bad.

oh polls can be edited, but only by a select few

"Any of the above" option added

personally, I wouldn't do it, but then I'm a very fussy eater
