They haven't been that low in a long time. Current fees are about $2-3 https://www.blockchain.com/charts/fees-usd-per-transaction

Average != actual, though. You can pay whatever fee you want.

I'm pretty sure that if you set a fee of $0.10, your transaction will be verified much sooner than you might think. It would be interesting to quantify, at least.

For most transactions, not being included in the next block is unacceptable.
