Marked down items end with 88 cents a lot of the time, so the 14 part is just a coincidence. The real question is why 88 lol.

Tricks people into thinking it's way cheaper than something ending in 99 cents. Like wow. Thanks.

[u/Kawlinz → u/Mellz117]

No, it's more for looking at a spreadsheet of items with prices and knowing which ones are on markdown just by the $0.88 at the end. Each store has their own method of course, but lots of stores reserve the pennies for keeping track of what's on markdown, what's on clearance, what's on sale next week etc

That's clever, like a secret label to keep track of various events going on, lol.

The amount of times I've gone to Costco with my wife for her to say "ooo wait till next week for this one" is at least 5.

My building does this with expenses. Every unit must send their expenses payment ending in their correspondent number of cents. So unit one sends $xxx.01 and unit two sends $xxx.02 etc

It's a clever little system to track who sends what.

We do something similar to track individual employee sales. Looks stupid to the customer, but it makes tracking sales easier.
