[quote=flu]What is annoying is that costco lists this at $89,999.99…Really, now… This isn’t gonna fool people into thinking “wow, great deal because it’s less than $90,000…”[/quote]That’s one of my pet peeves… all those prices ending in 9, it’s really moronic. Even worse is that prices don’t include sales tax as they do in other countries. E.g., when a hotel quotes you $99.99 for a room, you have no way of knowing how much the total bill will be in the morning (there’s sales tax, city hotel tax, resort fee, fuel surcharge, etc.) The total may come to anywhere from $110 to $130.
In Europe, when a hotel quotes you 120 euros, that’s all you pay when you check out. The receipt may itemize room rate, VAT, etc., but who cares? I was quoted 120, and that’s all I pay.
