This problem is another winner of the student POTW video solution contest.

Three guys stay in a single hotel room together, and the cost for the room is $30. Each man pays $10. Then, the manager remembered the $5 discount because of the construction. The manager sends a bellboy with $5. The men each keep $1, and give the bellboy $2. So, they all pay $9. 9 x 3 = 27, and the bellboy kept $2. $27 + $2 = $29. Where did the last dollar go?
