Cooties, for those who were deprived of a childhood, is a fictitious condition with no clear symptoms (other than intense shame) typically afflicting children under the age of nine. Though having Cooties doesn't seem to cause many problems, scientists have developed a cure. By the simple application of a circle, followed by another circle, followed by to two pricks (often called dots), someone can be cured of the disease or prevented from getting it. In Canada, according to Wikipedia, the inhabitants use a variation of this wherein the same treatment provides an indestructible lock against the disease. The cause of the difference has been hotly debated, with most assuming it occurred merely because Canadians are unable to form a convincing rhyme. Contrary to urban legend, the shot will not prevent you from contracting chlamydia, though the disease is cheaper than a new SRT4 as JPech noted.
You can pick up chlamydia for even less money than that, but that wouldn't be a good deal either.
How cheap are we talking here?

Anne Heche has admitted to a fractured past which contributed to psychological issues including multiple personality disorder. She claims an alien and/or a reincarnation of God named Celestia would speak through her, but in a different language. She was gay but then, apparently, she wasn't gay. As opposed to just being bisexual. She named her kid Homer. She's a bit hard to follow, but Barbara Walters attempted to understand her and Celestia in a confusing and bizarre interview. It was one of those fascinating events the world couldn't stop talking about. We knew, at the time, no one would forget September 2001 because of the crazy interview with Anne Heche. Of course, history has placed a different memory with us and few remember the nonsense news we were concerned with in early September. Before the 
Before there was Pets.com and the dot-com bubble burst there was an even stranger financial boom and bust centered around the trading of tulips in mid-17th century Holland. As the flowers, especially rare breeds, became popular the market for the Tulip bulbs increased dramatically with contracts being traded on the future growth of flowers that were, essentially, futures. The prices became insane and, eventually, everyone wanted to get into the Tulip market. Then a group of traders at an auction decided it wasn't worth paying a trunk full of guilders for a few flowers. Quickly, panic spread across the market causing it to collapse. Despite this insane market failure the Dutch economy survived without too much in the way of disruption. Why? One reason is the Amsterdam Stock Exchange wouldn't engage in the Tulip market because it was insane and demonstrated irrational exuberance (the good old days). In the ongoing
