"There really aren't enough hours in the day for everything I want to get done". She complained to her shop.

If she wasn't so selfless she would have wished more hours a long time ago back when she was the height of her reign.

"There was this one time with the pig faced lady..."

Anyway this is now. Ringing up the till at in the magic box Anya couldn't wait for the daily total to emerge. just thinking about that total and hoping it was higher than yesterdays was enough to get her blood pumping. Counting the daily totals was just better than sex, even sex with Xander. There had to be some way to make more money in a day. Eventually the roll had left the till and Anya almost exploded on the spot. Thanks to the newest release of 'The Dummies Guide to Magic' and a really old book Giles kept up top, she had made just under $5000. There were quite a few new customers today, and hopefully they would come again and again and again. Getting very giddy, Anya made her way to the till unable to be anything but excited over new money.

25 minutes later Anya and had counted and recounted the money only to find she was dollar short. It wasn't possible she had over changed someone, she would never be that careless. So now she had two problems, a missing dollar and no way to make more money.

Checking to make sure nothing had dropped down the side of the till or on the floor Anya was slightly dumbstruck. Walking into the main area of the shop Anya scanned the shelves, the floor, the table, anywhere money might be. Spotting something in the back corner Anya was intrigued enough to go over to it.

To Anya's amazement it was what looked like a Burlap hat. Picking it up she could only wonder how it came to be in the shop as she certainly hadn't ordered it and Giles doesn't even touch the online ordering system not to mention rare in this dimension. Turning it over there were two things inside it. Anya's missing dollar and a label for a costume rental shop.

It wasn't too long before a solution to Anya's second and now only problem flashed before her eyes.

"That's it!"

Importing traditional clothing from all the different dimensions so she she could sell them in the shop! Or even Ebay, just like she bought the Urn of Osiris.

"People will spend their money on anything on Ebay". She excitedly thought.

Depending on their needs she could sell them as costumes or even ritual wear. Getting giddier by the second at the prospect of this new adventure Anya walked to the till placing the found dollar into the money bag with the days takings and receipts, she placed them in the safe in the back office ready for banking another day. This was the one time money she already had came second to money she could have.

"I can't wait to tell Xander, maybe he can test out some of the costumes with me".

Now that both problems were solved, she had her dollar and a new way to make money Anya got very excited about going home to Xander, knowing her second favourite activity wouldn't be far behind.
