Same here; something I've done from my business days, when I had others that had access to my fuel cards. Checking the monthly statement, I could see immediately if someone had used the card for their own use, as they wouldn't know that I always went to a rounded number. (Yeah, unfortunately, I caught a few people that way.) That was a long time ago, but the habit stayed with me.
