I was proud of myself until i got to 6. I said Cuanto Cuesta instead of cuanto es. Does it make a difference?

Hola Autumn,
Thanks for the question.
It makes the same difference as between 'How much does it cos?t' and 'How much is it?'
in English.
¿Cuánto cuesta? - How much does it cost?
¿Cuánto es? - How much is it?
Here's a new one for you.
You may also say '¿A cómo es?' for one item or '¿A cómo son? for more than one item.
Both are idioms that mean 'How much does it/they cost?'.
¡Qué pases un lindo fin de semana! = I hope you have a wonderful weekend.
Best,
Mark Frobose
