How much was Bill Murray auctioned for in the movie "Groundhog Day"?

Rita (played by Andie MacDowell) pulls out her checkbook and bids {$339.88}

As the first item for sale at a fund-raising event in which eligible bachelors are auctioned to the highest bidder, Phil generates tremendous interest from the town's ladies, but Rita grandly outbids them all by offering the contents of her checking account.

The above is partially true. She does bid that much, but the value has a specific reason...

"§ 339.88. Expenses of detention.

The expenses incurred for detention under section 339.86 or 339.87 of the Revised Code shall be paid by the individual detained or if the individual is indigent, by the board of county commissioners of the county from which the individual was removed. "
