That it's so expensive.

Twenty years ago when these particular Lego were made it was like $1.25 to $1.50 per gallon.

It's missing the additional 9/10s of a cent though which is annoying in real life because you have to round up to get the real price.

They’re probably European prices, either in euros or even in pre-euro funny money.

Gotta pre euro money. As fuel pumps in Europe work in litres.

Oh it's a gas price sign. I thought it was supposed to be a clock or a timer.

Look where lego originates from.

Why the hell should I round up? Let me just cut up a penny to give them nine-tenths of it.

I misinterpreted what you meant by per gallon, here I was wishing for $1.50 for a gallon of Legos

Don't worry, that will be what people wish they could go back to before long.
