Sorry. Answer is outdated. Maggie originally scanned for $847.63, which was the price of raising a baby for one month back in 1989 (when the show debuted). Now things have changed and Marge's groceries add up to $243.36. When Maggie is added and scanned, she doubles the tab to $486.52.

I don't watch the Simpsons, but I know almost everyone else does. So I relied on majority vote for the correct answer. Failed me. Maybe not so many people watch the show.

A complete guess on my part ... not really a Simpsons fan, sorry ... but I'm sure that it's a good trivia question ..

Since your answers did not have the up to date answer I picked the original price from much older shows. You need to correct your answer. drmaldonado

Foolish question. Also, dated. Who selects these. It's been a little shabby lately .
