can you explain the nine-tenths of a cent added to every gallon of gas?

you cant give 1/10 of a cent in change so what happens to it?

so every gallon they sell, they make 1/10 of it FREE? non taxed maybe? i dont know.


every 10 gals = 1 free cent 'bonus'?

every 100 gals = $1

1000 gallons = $10

10,000 gals = $100

100,000 gals = $1000.




doesnt seem like much but you know SOMEWHERE someone is making a mint off that missing 1/10 i suspect.

Just buy in increment of 10 gal. to not lose tens of a cent.

$2.499/gal X 10 gal. = $24.99 <---whole cents.

They do make possibly up to within $0.001 of 9 extra cents per 10 gallons, but it resets every 10 gallons. It is still taxed however.
