Where did that damn euro go ?

Marijke , Yde and Sjoukje went to a small restaurant , and they
had a small meal and the bill was 25 euro. Each payed with a
10 euro note, so the change is of course 5 euro ( in 5 coins of 1 euro)
So each of them got one euro back and that left 2 euro for the
waiter as tip.
How much did they pay individually, the answer is of course 9 euro
aint it ? but if 3 times 9 makes 27 euro plus 2 for tip makes a
total of 29 euro so, where did that one euro go ??

PS : the waiter gave the change to Yde , but he had only one euro
on him.

The $27 included the tip and they each had one Euro left over and that totals $30 Euros.

If the others didn't have each 1 Euro remaining then someone (I don't want to accuse anyone) must have stolen the other two Euros.
