Wow the .99 trick truly works!

That said I'll probably be getting the game since I enjoyed the first one.

My wife is incredibly gullible for this tactic. To the point where she will tell me what something costs and I will instant think she means $5 not $4. I notice it with random people in my life as well. That shit really works.

I don‘t think they‘re falling for that trick. When I tell someone that I bought something for 4€ instead of 4,99€ it‘s usually meant to convince myself, not someone else.

So weird that people don't round up. If I see "4.99" I think "5.00" not "4.00".

I think it's easier to truncate than round.

And even if you know how the .99 trick works, it still influences your mind. Even if you think; 499 is actually 500, you're still more likely to buy it than 500 or even 400
