The same thing happened to me. What was worse, I didn't realize it was a dollar either and put it on the counter thinking it was a quarter (I'm sure I got it as a quarter, too). He was smarter than that. He wouldn't accept foreign money. Just smarted himself out of 75 cents.

What happened next was, I called for the store manager. He took the coins, rolled his eyes at the cashier, then placed the coins in his pocket and replaced them with paper currency. This happened at the Food Lion in Raleigh NC.
