Fun fact (anecdotal, but still) most big corporate places my friends work for have code to disable things being priced at $6.66. Maybe it's because I'm in a particularly conservative area of the US, but most big box stores and restaurants around here will literally have a discount built in to prevent a ticket coming out to 6.66. 14.88 being a price in that context just feels really odd to me. They know about edgy numbers and don't want to piss off customers. They make money by being as agreeable and sanitary as possible, so not having 14.88 blocked off in pricing seems weird.
i worked at a gas station for a few months once upon a time. even in that brief span i had multiple people literally pay me more money/go buy another thing so the price wouldn't come out to $6.66
ngl i'm kind of a bitch so i found it pretty hard not to just make fun of them to their faces. your option would definitely be the more normal thing to do i guess

entirely possible that they are less aware of 1488 though
