So I recently purchased a magazine and it turned out to be from England. Okay, that's all fine and dandy.
I looked at the price of it and there was the pound sign (not # but the other sign for the English pound, I don't know how to bring it up on the computer). It was followed by 2.99.
My question: In the US, I would say that it costs "two dollars and ninty-nine cents". How would you say it in pounds? The best I could come up with was "two pounds and ninty-nine ounces".

I think the funniest money I have seen is the Canadian money. The one dollar coin is called a 'loonie' because it has a picture of a 'bird' called the 'loon' on it. The two dollar coin is called a 'Twonie.'
'Loony Toons' like the cartoon.
