Restaurant Rounding up and down bill

We went to dinner last Saturday night. Had to wait for a few minutes for table (even though there were empties and some needing clearing) so we went to the bar.

Bartender gives me the check and as I'm about to hand over my CC something looked off. The 3 beers totaled $24.00 and tax was $1.98. The total was $26.00.

Trying to not be a dick, I asked the bartender why the numbers didn't add up. She was shocked and had no idea. Several minutes later she says she had discussed with the manager who also didn't know the why but was 'very concerned'.

We ate dinner, got check and noticed the exact opposite had happened. The bill was rounded down from $85.63 actual cost of items plus tax ... to $85.60.

Is this a new thing? Anyone else seen it?
