While house hunting in London, I came across a very good leasehold property Discussing the lease the landlady told me:

John Went to the nearby store in a Mall to buy something for her home. Below is the conversation between the two:

John: How much for the one?
Shopkeeper: It is $2
John: How much for the Eleven?

John: How much for the Hundred?
Shopkeeper: It is $6.
