When people are around, its more embarrassing than anything. They are thinking, you don't have 3 cents on you and you have to FINANCE that amount lol.
I remember this one well. It was the BK Detour Event. Stopped in at my local McDonald's for a $1 soda and ordered a $0.01 Whopper, I think, at the BK across the street. Biggest joke run I have ever done. The credit card also offered up $0.25 back per transaction so the final amount due was -$0.24 when everything was done and over with. I literally got paid to buy something.

That is a good one and maybe my CC bucket list is to charge 1 cent. And I would LOVE it to be the post office. Unfortunately, most stamps now are forever stamps and 1 cent stamps are harder to come by.

You can still buy them however they come on sheets of 20. Also the whole idea of forever stamps was to reduce and eliminate the headache of the $0.01 stamps as it was cheaper to forgive the cent than print the stamps.

Oh this is a hoot! You win 😆
I once charged 1¢ at Macy's, and it actually had to be done with a card.
55 cents for a stamp.
I once paid 50-cents on a parking meter. Some of the meters on pricier downtown Seattle streets give you just 1.09 mins for the first nickel. I'm gonna try to charge 5-cents for fun!!
Edit: Just realized there's a 12-minute transaction minimum on our parking meters now.
