Some years ago, I went in to a refrigeration supply house (refrigeration being my business)
I asked the clerk if they had any 3/8 copper tubing straps he said yes. I asked how much he said .08 each
I said fine, I'll take a box of a 100
He brings the box out I'm ready to pay, he pulls out a calculator and starts to enter .08, .08, .08, .08, .08, .08, loses track and tells me uh, that will be $6
He's probably running a casino in A/C now
