Aye aye aye. Two people. Both idiots at math. I'm not asking for too much am I? Is the idea of being able to count to ten too much? We all done it at least once. In preschool. Or playing hide and seek...
IF its over a dollar for one...
This man always buys one or two of the cheap 1.20 beer. Today he decided to get five. I tell him the price of six dollars. He gets confused, and even a little scared.
SC: ...are you sure? I think you rang me up for six!
ME: ...No. Five times 1.20 is 6 dollars.
SC: ... I did the math at home. It should be five.
ME: Nope. Sorry.
SC: All I have is five.
ME: Then you need to take one off it would seem.
SC: No... your ringing it up wrong. Cause I did it. 1.20 five times, would be five. The five .20 becomes zero.
ME: ....
ME: ..... if... one item is over a dollar as is, then getting five, be default, would be a minimal of five. Your not carrying over the dollar... I mean. WHAT the hell man!!?
SC: ....
SC: Just take four then. But I know your doing it wrong.
Yeah. If Four of the same items equals X, then getting four more would equal 2X
Customers come up with four chicken pot pies. The total is 2.76. He looks happy at that, and goes and gets four more. He has a total of eight pies. Price total? 5.52. It doesn't take a genius to realize that it would be twice the amount, if you got twice the items.
SC: Oh... i didn't think it be that much... Take one off.
ME: *does so. Price total is now 4.83.
SC: ... I don't have enough. Can you take another off?
ME: *growing in head*. Total: 4.14.
SC: ... I only have 4 dollars. How many can I get with that?
ME: ....
ME: ......
ME: .......
ME: *Inner peace as I stop the inner rage of wanting to shove pies down his throat* You can get 5. It will be 3.45.
SC: Ok. Lets do that.
