I learned this at a kid in the US. This fast food place had cookies labeled "99¢!” so said "mom can I have a dollar for a cookie?" and she gave me one, as a treat. I hope to the register and the girl says "ok it's actually $1.06".

I don't think I got the cookie that day. I don't remember it, but if I did it was soured by capitalism.
