* In ''[[Nethack]]'' some {{spoiler|of the demon lords}} can be bribed to leave you alone. It's a one time offer. There's no opportunity to get gold from a container. So the bribe just has to be a sufficiently large fraction of the gold you have in open inventory. Carrying $10 in the open when necessary makes the bribe very cheap indeed.
* Happens annoyingly often in ''Medieval II: [[Total War]]'', when the rival powers start threatening you with destruction unless you cough up some cash. "Yes, [[Gratuitous German|mein freund]], I'm afraid the price for peace with the Holy Roman Empire is[[Dramatic Pause|...]]''one hundred and thirteen Florins!''" And yes, if you refuse there is a good chance they'll invade.

* In the [[Flashback]] episode of ''[[Helluva Boss]]'', "The Circus", Blitzo's father is willing to "sell" his son to Paimon to act as Stolas' playmate for only $5 and a condom, which is all Paimon's butler has in his pockets at the time. Downplayed, however, as he also sees this as a chance to have Blitzo rob their house and make a fortune.
