The z is the most expensive because all the others ones are lower than z and z cost 76 rupees . the least is a because a cost one rupee and b does not cost 2 its gonna cost 4 . now i think it said i need to make my own so this is my own rule. my rule is that i think a should be 12 pound beacause its unfair that a living animal is getting writen on and puttting this thing up if without goverment or police supervision but i feel theyll have to pay the security and me so they will be paying 24 pound just to draw on a elephant . how cheap [sarcasim]
