What a Puzzler!

From the Mensa Puzzle Calendar.
Our local toy store prices its merchandise according to the owner's whim. A doll costs 70 cents, a train costs 80 cents, a drum costs 70 cents, and a dollhouse costs $1.40. According to this system, how much will a jumping jack cost?
Answer:
$1.90 (vowels are worth 10 cents; consonants are worth 20 cents).
