I originally reported this issue probably a year ago or more. It still is there. It's with the pricing when there is a sale. The original price is listed along with a price below it with a slash through it. The slashed price is only a penny difference from the original price. At one point in time the issue had been fixed, but it is back again. I always notice it with the Bath Towel Sets. I know there had been other products with this bug, but I don't remember which ones just now.

@northwestphotos I may be wrong... but let's say the price for something is $1.05, and the sale is 50% off. Zazzle and most retailers will round the sale price up, not down. So in the $1.05 price example. Zazzle will charge the customer $0.53 and not $0.52. Half off would actually be $0.525, but it is not possible to charge someone that amount. So the price you see is off by a penny because of it.
Prices that end in an even number do not have this issue. So something that costs $1.98 can be cut in half without rounding up.
Hope that makes sense.

I understand your reasoning, but why even have this showing at all? It's a bit confusing for those who see it.

@northwestphotos I should have looked at your example. My explanation does not apply to the error you are seeing... ooops...
