From my experience working in retail I've seen people say out loud something like "oh, it's only 4 dollars!" When the sticker says $4.99. This shit apparently works on a lot of people for some reason.

I think I've heard a couple people do this. One directly in response to me saying it was $5 lol.

I do that with gas, but everybody knows the .9 cents are implied.
