:-))) I once had a member of staff at one of those places say "
The usual price is 14.99, but there's a ten percent discount and I
don't know what that is". So, helpfully, I said "It's One-fortynine".
She stared at me in absolute amazement and said "But how do you know?
".

But it isn't, it's £1.50 ;-)

Almost but not quite...

I wouldn't bother people with percentages! Four thirds of them don't
even understand fractions!!
