What to do with $100 bucks?

So folks, I have 100 bucks around the house, what could I do with it? investments? Spend it all on Bestbuy? Shopping?

But I don't want to leave in a saving account, it isn't worth it, and it is too little to buy any stock so what other investment could I make with 100 buck?

If you don't want to risk the stock market (and sites like sharebuilder.com will let you set up an account with no minimum balance for purchasing stock), you could put the money in a CD or money market account. You still won't see high returns, but you'll do a bit better then an ordinary savings account.

Or, if you have any credit card debt, make an extra payment of $100. If you have an interest rate of, say, 18%, that'll save you $18 in interest this year.

buy a bunch of candy bars and sell them for cheap at work on the down low.

Whatever you feel like doing with it. It is your money.

Buy a really nice belt. It will class up whatever you're wearing. If you look like money, the money will find you.
