A couple of riddles...?

Be the first one to get these right and get 10 points!

1. On my way to St. Ives I met a man with seven wives. Each wife had seven sacks; each sack had seven cats; each cat had seven kits. Kits, cats, wives and sacks – how many were going to St. Ives?

2. One day, there was a young man that wanted to buy a box from this store.

The box's actual price was $18, but the price tag said it was $21.

The young man gave the owner of the store a $100 bill. Since he didn't have change, the owner went over to his neighbor's house, exchanged the $100 bill for $1's, and gave $79 to the young man.

(the young man dies later... how sad...)

Later that day, the neighbor realizes that the $100 bill the owner of the store gave him was fake, so the owner has no choice but to give another $100 to his neighbor.

The question is: How much money did the owner of the store lose in all?
...and for the 2nd one, please show your thinking

1. none- you said the man was going, not his family and everything else, yet you asked how many kits, cats, wives, and sacks were going, you didn't include the guy
2. $97- he lost $100 that he gave the neighbor, and $18 from the box. But he made $21
or it could be $121
or $89- lost $100 and made $21
ah! I'm confused lol

1. Just one.
2. $197

Edit: Here's the work for #2. He lost the second $100 he gave his neighbor, the $79 in change he gave the young man, and the $18 for the box's actual price. 100+79+18=197

Answer to the first question: One, you didn't say the family was going to St. Ives.

Answer to the first question: He didn't lose any money?
