A Penny for your thoughts!

Just fuelled up for second time today, always use Shell and every time I squeeze the nozel and approach the desired amount I can easily increase it by a Penny...............
Until I get to .99 when it jumps immediately to .01
I'm no conspiracy theorist but its every time without fail, that's a lot of Pennies!
Why can they not just install pumps where you tell it how much you want to spend and the computer shuts it off at that price.
Really bugs me, is there a trick to it?

I feel your pain, every penny up till 99 takes a hefty pull on the trigger but then it becomes super sensitive.Until I get to .99 when it jumps immediately to .01

Tesco do have a system on their pumps for setting the amount though,but it takes 10 minutes to do the last Pound

If you'd worked harder at school you could afford to fill the tank. Problem solved. Yafannie!
It's not that, I often like to pay in cash so as not to leave a computer trail, doesn't take a genius to know why 
Don't like a pocket full of 9.99 change!
If I'm not going a long PH run I don't fill the tank due to performance/ weight (even with over 500 bhp) you still notice!

Yep.
Same thing happened to me. I only had a note on me.
I was trying to get the pump to stop at the round number but just at the last moment it jumped over.
I went into the kiosk and explained.
He said that it was only 20:02 so the little extra didn't matter.
I thanked him very much, gave him my tenner and left a happy man.
