  1. why do they bother charging cents? Like, when you owe someone 56 grand, couldn't they do without the 80 cents?

  2. Wow your's was more than mine. It's crazy the expense. I found myself grateful that I had insurance they decided to cover it at the last minute. I was expecting to pay out of pocket, can you imagine??
