Come for a brainstorming session  :-?

1.)      I am going to buy some stuff, but forgot my wallet in my home.
2.)      On my way toward market I met 2 of my friends who loan US$ 500/- each for spending. (Now I got 500 + 500 total US$ 1,000/- for shopping)
3.)      Unfortunately I lost 1 US$ 500/- note now just got US$ 500/- for shopping.
4.)      I brought PC Games for US$ 300/- now I got US$ 200/- left (500-300=200)
5.)      I returned US$ 200/- to both of my friends, US$ 100/- each.
6.)      Now when I recomputed my calculations I have to return total US$ 800/- to both of my friend US$ 400/- each, however the computation shows US$ 1,100/- (US$ 800/- payback to friends & US$ 300/- PC Games 800+300=1100)
7.)      From where the hell US$ 100/- came in where I got just US$ 1,000/- initially.

Solve it if you think you are genius

Status : Offline		Um, why would you add up those $300 again? It's your money, essentially (assuming you didn't forget your wallet) and you only owe your friends $400 each.

200+800 = 1000
And 300 that are 'yours', that you would've spent anyway

...also, pls introduce me to your friends who give you $500 bills when you randomly meet them on the street.
