What's the going rate for teeth these days?

My 6 year old daughter has her first loose tooth and is very excited. When I was a kid the tooth fairy just left spare change. Due to inflation, I am wondering how much the tooth fairy is supposed to leave her when she loses her tooth. How much do you leave for your kids?

NO MORE THAN 20 CENTS.If you start big now what are you going to be buying for her when she is 16.i think that is were moms and dads go wrong today they give there kids the world when there little and buy the time there 12.There pockets are not big enough.

This is a good question :) When my niece left her first tooth under the pillow, my cousin left a dollar for her and an "ice cream" gift certificate that is good for around 3 ice cream cones. My daughter has still not lost any tooth (she is still 3 years old) but if ever she loses any teeth, she would get gift certificates from me at the local candy shop :)

The gift certificate is a great idea!
