Default Interesting things you can do with one dollar

If someone came up to you with only one dollar in their pocket and asked you what interesting thing they could do with it (make, buy, do, etc), what would your suggestion to them be?

Buy a locally grown peach; save the pit; plant it and have a tree full of peaches in about six years.

I would get a nice cold drink. It's 90 degrees here today and I'm thirsty.

I would buy some fresh produce, because right now I can stretch my dollar further on produce at the local discount grocery store.
