The simpsons - opening credits

[La La]

What is the written on the data display on the till register at the opening credits of the Simpsons (flashes up when Maggie is till swiped!)?

[davver]

"ERROR", isn't it?

In 'The Simpsons 138th Episode Spectacular' (1995) that self-same question is asked:

Announcer: "In the opening credits, what does the cash register say when Maggie is scanned? The cash register says, "NRA4EVER", just one of the hundreds of radical right-wing messages inserted into every show by creator Matt Groening."

I can confirm the answer given on the above link as I (in a moment of sheer boredom) checked it on my vcr one day!

It's actually the average amount of money it costs to bring up a child in America. Not sure what the actual amount is though.
