basic adulting quiz

Worth doing. I got a couple wrong that I didn't think were wrong when I answered. Bit of a wake up call.

The egg one is baffling. I've never seen buy one get one free for eggs.

I got 8. It would be great if this stuff was taught in schools. I worked in a bank for a while, and as unpleasant as that was at least it made me learn about interest

Ahh… I don’t have a car and am a pensioner. Also I don’t have a credit card. I can only really speak to the eggs.

Does this mean I’m entitled to kids meals and tickets?

Twinsies!
