As he lived with his grandmother, he probably didn't have to pay rent or for food so the pennies add up quickly. In 1983 I paid $2200 to "hotrod" my Camero's engine and I did that off a summer working full time and another three months part time at KFC for $5.50/hour. That was probably a minimum equivalent to the shooter's purchases.
Still $7.25 in TX, don't know about Wendy's.
