have to call it $2.12 which is much closer.


I wonder how much they make when they round up everyone's bill. I mean I presume you don't have 0.1 cent coins?

I've heard, and I don't know how this works, that you can fiddle your business's taxes slightly by charging 0.99c for stuff.

Now they probably do not make that much. The gas was at one time much
profit as when the gas was about $ 0.20 a gallon or less. That was what
? around 2% more.

They round down as much as up If it comes out to .96 or .97 they only
get .95.

If it's .03 , 02, or .01 they get nothing, if it's .04 they get .05
