Eight ladies go to eight shops at eight o'clock in the morning. Each lady wants to buy eight spiders. For each spider, eight spider shoes must also be bought. But they only have eight pounds between them. With each spider costing eight pence and each spider shoe costing an eighth pence each, will the ladies have enough change for the bus home? A journey costing eight pence per stop and made up of eight stops.

Assuming 100 pence to the dollar... 8 ladies buy 8 spiders and shoe sets for 8×8×9p for a total of 5 pound 76 pence, for change of £2.24. One trip for one lady is 8x8p, 64p. So only 3 and a half trips are possible. So no, they can't. ... I like logic puzzles.
