Aldi etc play this game as most businesses over here but with decimal currency changeover in the 60,s there are no pennies rounding is the norm. When I see a price I mentally round up never down works for me. When I met my wife she worked as a Window Dresser Ticket writer as part of a four person team the rule was everyone item in this store had to have a price ticket attached. The business flow satisfied both the customer and management fewer delays at the counter as well. It became second nature for us fewer surprises no time making enquiries from non evident staff these days. When in Edinburgh in the 80,s I was amazed when I bought material in the main street shop the lass computed the cost presented it to her senior who gave a tick of approval I paid she fastened the money and paperwork to a banded device that sent it whizzing up to the above floor to be received then sent back with change.
With Paul having clearly marked the price the potential customer without embarrassment is free to pursue the sale the above discussion has taken place well before this and the exchange is made money for goods. The feeling I have is presentation, friendliness win the day.
Peter.
