Record price for Duct Tape


Look close. Roll number 83 from Jamaica cost a whopping $778.05! That is a new record for the most expensive roll of Duct Tape in the collection.


Daughter Mindy and husband Kurt were on a family vacation to Ocho Rio in Jamaica for a Christmas holiday and picked up this roll for the collection at the local market. Here they are shown at the store where they picked up groceries for the stay. The bill there for food came to almost a million dollars! The good news is that with an exchange rate of 130 to 1 the Duct Tape cost in U.S. dollars was about $6. Jamaican money must have a lot of zeros on it.


Here is Kurt's World Duct Tape coin #83. Welcome to the coin carrying membership Kurt and thanks for playing the game. To see a list of the countries that I presently have Duct Tape rolls from please visit ducttape2thefuturelist.blogspot
