One Confusing Math Problem

Ok Guys,
I have been pondering over this for a while, its confusing, but help if you can, and no, this is not a trick question or anything as such:

3 Men go to a restaurant. The charge is $25. Each of them pay $10.
The waiter gives them a $5 bill back, since none of them have coins, they give the waiter $2, and each of them take $1.

Now, $2 + $1 + $1 + $1 + 25 = $30

So on the whole each paid $9(they got back $1).

9x3 = 27;
27 + 2 = 29;

Where is $1?
