........can we get rid of the F'n 9/10 of a cent at the end of gas prices ??????

That 1/10 of a cent is now less than .02% of the price of a gallon of regular unleaded. Does ANYONE feel they're getting a bargain at $5.099/gallon over $5.10/gallon ???

WTF ??????

It was all for The Ice Cream Generation to feel like they were getting treated with respect and value and had choices and valued as consumers.

I read this one time....

Back in the 73 gas war days, when prices took a leap, it looked better to have a big sign with $1.259 (with the 9/10's being smaller, than a sign with $1.26. This is just an example. According to the article, that's when it became popular.

Back in younger days when gas was 25 - 30 cents a gallon, it was, maybe, a bit more meaningful.

But, now............ It's just laughable.......if there's ANYTHING about gas prices to laugh about.
Because everyone figures they’re getting a deal then they can buy something for $9.99 and stead of $10.00
