" $ 160 for a parking ticket!I' m calling city hall about this.There must be some mistake."Nick thought 16 "Yes,sir,there is a mistake," said the man at the city hall," 17 I'm afraid the mistake' s 18 .This ticket was for $ 20.However,the fine doubles every thirty days.It has been 90 days,so the 19 is now $ 160.You will have to pay that." Nick had the $ 20 and he 20 to pay the fine.But for some reason the ticket had gotten 21 in his pile of papers and unopened letters.
