Hello, it's time once again to highlight something that annoys me. For shameless self promotional purposes, I must mention that I wrote about this same subject in greater detail in my book, I Am Annoyed: One Man's Rants Against This Annoying World, which is available on Amazon. Today, I want to talk about how almost everything we buy is priced to end in $.99. The reason for this, of course, is that studies show that psychologically, people are more apt to buy something priced this way. It is weird for me to believe that lowering a price by one cent affects people that much. Really, is everyone that feeble minded? For example, if something is priced $9.99, it is basically ten freaking dollars. In fact, it's even more when you add sales tax. It's just sad and annoying to me that people are such dullards that this actually works. Anyway, to read more on this subject, here's the link to my book on Amazon, which you can purchase for the low price of $2.99:

Thanks for your time, and I hope you got the joke.
