Fair enough, but still, at least here in NZ one can have correct change right ready to give to the checkout person, without needing to do any sort of calculation whatsoever. And with our smallest coin now having a value of 10 cents...

And I'm not even going to get into the obscure hocus pocus that is gratuities/tipping... (as that has absolutely no relation at all to the current topic at hand, which is the new Sony readers!!)
