Re: Prices

For my own clarification, you're trying to match a four or
five
character string consisting of one or two numbers followed
by a period
followed by 2 more numbers.  The last two numbers can end in
a 1 or a
2, or begin with a 9.

This pattern should work:
d{1,2}.(?:(?:d[12])|(?:[9]d))

If you need an unspecified number of digits before the
period, you can
change it to :
d+?.(?:(?:d[12])|(?:[9]d))
