Try @price.round(2).to_f. ---- well, the round(2) function will return 1.5 if that is the stored value in big decimal which was unacceptable but I didn't try @price.round(2).to_f but I wonder which is faster/slower.
In reality, though, it tossed an error... undefined method `round' for #<Price:0xb6e1bf20> which I think is back to my original problem of having a big decimal, that must be converted to a float before it can be rounded.
