In Australia we include GST in listing price. The bare minimum you could expect it to be sold for is $2.00 AUD Inc GST. prices are more attractive at round numbers so $3.00 makes more sense than $2.30 or $2.50 for example.

That's why

I live in Australia, technically the drink was 2.90 so still it's baffling

I'd hardly call that baffling. We generally pay more for goods such as food than in America, but other services cost less / are subsidized. It all balances out one way or another
