"If we have to pay you 5 cents every time we pick our nose, does that mean we can buy nose picks?"

-Petey's response to my decree that every time I catch them picking their nose they have to pay me 5 cents. I'm not trying to strike up a business deal here! I just want them to stop picking their nose in public!! I thought by fining them, they'd learn to pick their noses more discretely, like in the bathroom or something. Nothing doing. They've pretty much decided that it's worth paying the money.

What can I do?

Hold on, wait... shoot, I'll have to find it, but a couple of years ago we had this discussion with our two youngest about picking their nose. heh heh... but it was a website that showed just what WAS in a wee little booger.
