$900K for a 'Lost' Finale Ad? How the Cast Could Spend That
As the series finale of 'Lost' creeps closer and closer, a
new report claims that 30-second commercials for the final show are approaching Super Bowl levels. A half-minute spot will cost advertisers a staggering $900,000, as ABC is banking on millions of eyes tuning in to find out what the #$@! the show is all about. So, with that in mind, PopEater decided to see what Hurley, Locke and other show characters could buy with that amount of money. For instance ...
John Locke, who has proven himself as a master outdoorsman with some serious knife skills, can buy himself 10,431
KA-BAR knives (what the U.S. military uses) at just $86.28 each. That's a whole lot of stabbing and animal skinning! Plus, we heard in his flash-forward that Oceanic lost his bag full of knives, so this should be enough to replace them all.

Hurley's obviously got a lucky hand when it comes to the lottery, so why not run his luck by buying 180,000 Win for Life tickets at $5 a pop (
in New York). With his hot hand, we think he's guaranteed to win. Plus, winning a massive jackpot worked out so well for him the first time around. Oh, wait...
When
Kate isn't having nude polar bear cage romps with Sawyer on the island, she's generally running from the law off the island. So, might we recommend buying 113,207 handcuff shim picks at $
7.95 each. You know, because they're easy to lose, so having an extra 113,000 or so of them on hand can't hurt.
Sawyer wore his Dharma jumpsuit so darn well that it would be nice to see him get a promotion and become a lab worker. Thankfully, with his $900k, Sawyer, errr James, can get himself 13,856 Dharma lab coats at
$64.95 ... and that's if he doesn't get an employee discount!
Sayid, the former Iraqi torture expert, has never been able to get over the demons of his past employment. While the iron rule of Saddam will surely take time to get over, 82,949 copies of 'Escaping Toxic Guilt' could be at Mr. Jarrah's disposal at $
10.85 each.
