They may list it as $19.99 but I'm always going to call it twenty bucks and eleven cents.
Doesn't it have its roots in forcing clerks to give change and recording the sale (rather than pocketing the money)?
If there is any research from the last 50 years suggesting this actually works, I'd love to see it.

No one is never an idiot.
Can confirm. I'm idiot most of the time
But it IS how we see prices. If there weren't science behind it, they wouldn't be doing it.

I always round up the price when I see $X.99 but my grandmother always rounds it down and it pisses me off
They're trying to fool you! Don't be a sheep!!!
I always round way up because sales tax is so high here. 17.99 = $20. I'm usually within the $1 range when I check out.
Still boggles my mind that tax is not included in the price in the US.

But you get a penny back, isn't that great?
Jokes on you. We have sales tax.
I still don't get why you guys have that and not the business.
Sellers are responsible for it. They just don't include it in the advertised pricing, they could if they wanted to.
