If someone is walking past something they like, but have little need for, they'll see that 7 isntead of 8 and are more likely to buy the item.
I agree with the original post though, that it doesn't work on me, since I do round everything up, but when you think about it, you are saving lots of money... just try and take 1 cent off of everything you buy yearly... I know it puts an extra couple $100s in my pocket yearly.

1 cent off of everything you buy yearly ....ok
100 things you buy a day .. 1 cent off = $ 1.00
Month of things you buy 3000 .. 1 cent off = $ 30.00
I can see where this is putting $ 100s in your pocket yearly ....
Thanks for the Tip !!!
