1. Food - They serve nice chow there.

Tiger

Not to be confused with the animal... This refers to R10 (Ten Rands). One tiger would mean R10, Two tiger would mean R20, Five tiger - R50, etc. When you get to R100, it becomes a Klipa. R200 - Two klipa, etc.

We only need 3 tiger to add to the money we have and get that case of beer.
