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?

What… I thought a twoonie was generous! You guys are all crazier than I am.

$5 a tooth, although I’m a little cheap and this was 8 to 10 years ago. Probably up to $50 a tooth now with the recent inflation 😁

It depends on how many small bills the tooth fairy happens to have on him at the relevant night. I’m only a little ashamed in admitting that, one day when only $20s were in the wallet, I may have snuck into the LO’s room, grabbed a couple of singles from her piggy bank, and then had the tooth fairy give her those (supplementing later, of course).

The “normal” rate is a Toonie a Tooth, but subject to the assessment, sometimes it’s a fiver.

Some might say it’s determined by the Tooth Fairy’s ready supply of change, but I’m sure it’s because each tooth is individually graded…

I did $5 for the first one ever, however, weeks later she had a meltdown and demanded that the tooth fairy return the tooth. She even tried to put the $5 back under her pillow🤣.
