What does "pop" exactly in this sentence? I can't find suitable an interpretation in dictionaries. In "TBBT S05E10" Howard said "They just keep making up more cheesy monsters, slapping them on cards and selling them at 25 bucks a pop."What does "pop" exactly mean in this sentence? I can't find an suitableinterpretation in dictionaries. ~sorry for my typo~

In this situation you can use the word 'pop' to mean 'each'. If your dog has puppies and you want to sell them, you can say 'I am going to sell the puppies for $100 a pop' it has the same meaning as 'I am going to sell the puppies for $100 each'......just more informal. Thanks

Each of them costs 25 $. They're saying that they just keep creating new mosters, printing them on cards and selling each of them for 25 $. Tickets cost 10 $ a pop=Every ticket costs 10$

a pop = each Twenty bucks a pop is too much. I love records but not fifteen dollars a pop.
