what? so if my bill is 1,96 euro i should pay 2 euro and the store will get the 4 cent? no way. that sounds not like much but its like per custumer per day lot. i even hate it that on gas stations there is a .cent. for example gas 1 euro 59,9 cent. what is this bullshit? just money making for the gas stations and oil companys.
I think the idea is that on the other hand the store will only get 2โฌ if the bill is 2,04โฌ. On average there shouldn't be any difference for both sides. About the gas stations I agree 100%.
new chalange for me always buy thinks that cost x,x4 euro :)
And nothing else ;-)
The Stores will all do 1,96 then and no store will do 2,04 since that would make a loss on their side.
Only if you buy just one thing.
I refuse to believe that anyone pays for gas in cash anymore.
What makes you think you'd have to round up instead of down?
Ah those arguments have already been done to death in the countries that did implement it. It really doesn't change a thing in the grand scheme of things. Even the shops were worried that they'd lose money on it, so no, it's not a money making scheme, it averages out perfectly fine.
