I do get frustrated because some gas station pricing is recorded wrong in apps because they handle the oft-forgotten 9/10 of a penny on the end that essentially makes the gallon a penny more. Like in the big one here in the USA called GasBuddy, they started rounding it down a couple years ago, but some other apps have inconsistent reporting by users as a result as well. I often end up with Google Maps and Gas Buddy being a cent off in one direction or the other based on people who do or don't know the real rounded price.
But I was listening to a coworker today talk about an appetizer as being "3 or 4 bucks!" but I know what she was talking about and it's actually $4.99. People do this all the time. My cousins were always buying apps and telling their mom the price without the $0.99 on the end. Genius.
