That is really really cool. Thanks for sharing and helping spread the word about BTC
Not a problem 
How much were the hotdogs?
What's the address so that I can buy a virtual hotdog (seriously) since the stand is now closed?
They were selling them for $2 NZD in fiat or BTC0.008. What's the address so that I can buy a virtual hotdog (seriously) since the stand is now closed?
Their address is 1EMn38NTVTugkaoe1VjgEh1sKq2vDqyDXZ
Curious: https://blockchain.info/address/1HDogb4RXd7kmR3GHqw94KzTqEammAEbKj
Kinda matches the QR Code on the table.
Are you sure the 1EM... address isn't yours and you purchased 2 Hot Dogs via the 1HDog... address? I can easily see how you can make an honest mistake seeing that 1EM... is similar to 1HDog, especially if two bucks is about to be transferred to purchase a virtual hot dog.
The QR on the table ( https://i.imgur.com/Lf3hXZw.png ) includes the price of 0.008btc. The last transaction on the address was moving the funds to my brother, my demo transactions (for curious staff) back to myself (1AP2/1GusS2) and the remainder to 1HDog which will be exchanged for NZD and given to the other 3 members of the group who wanted cash.

The QR-code on the table is actually scannable "through" the computer screen despite the poor display conditions (skewed + poor quality).
A great scanner that does well is the i-nigma Scanner.
The QR is equal to bitcoin://1EMn38NTVTugkaoe1VjgEh1sKq2vDqyDXZ?amount=0.008

My brother and his friends decided to run a hotdog stand for my school's trade fair so I mentioned to him that he could accept bitcoin as payment. He seemed pretty keen on the idea so I helped him set up a wallet and print a QR code. Here's the results!

I ended up buying 2 myself, got some teachers and other students set up with wallets and sold them some bitcoin cheaply to try it out. I gave out exchange urls and quite a few people expressed interest in 'getting into it more'.
As an added bonus, the commerce department at school want me to do a presentation on bitcoin later this month (If anyone has suggestions on topics to cover that would be awesome).
Quite a productive day
