#28: So Very Close
Nothing beats the calming, life-affirming feeling of a perfectly rounded even number. But what about the feeling of being a single cent away from pure bliss? It’s so close it almost amounts to torture. Seriously, what are the odds of this happening with an even gallon amount AND an even sale amount?

Like playing the slot machines in Vegas, hitting the even gallon mark is every OCD person’s secret goal in life. What would you have done in this situation? Personally, I’d have to try for one more cent just in case there’s any chance that I could win the gas station lottery with even gallon and even sale amounts. Oh, what a day that would be.
