No...399, as in 'less than 400.' Although they omitted the 99p but you do have to admit that 399.99 is less than 400.
For god's sake round it up! If I am spending £399.99 I don't really care about the 1p and it saves you having to find me the change.

ps. JLP used to do this. Everything is to the pound or 50p. Must make keeping change in the till easier......do they still do it.

pps. You want to see Oman TV......makes Wayne's World look professional.

When I used to work for Unilever we had the best advert

Yup it won loads of prizes and was consistantly voted the best advert by viewers etc year on year.

Unfortunately sales went DOWN

Conversely, it was shown that sales of the "worst" advert skyrocketted.
Something to do with folk really remembering the shyte ads.....

So you've only got yourselves to blame!
