I always carry a handful of change with me into a store and often confuse the hell out of clerks and I count out change along with the bills I hand them.

I notice they rarely blow off the two cents when a sale is $20.02 and I don’t have the 0.02.

Fine. Here is $40.00. Make the damn change and I don’t want to hear your bitching. I tried.

Funny thing is, I’ve pretty much had the same $50 in my wallet for the last six months.

I hope you're not one of those old farts who waits until the very end of the process to start looking for change to be slowly counted out so the change back will come to exactly a quarter or two, AFTER fishing out your coupons and discussing with the clerk which ones are still current and which ones have expired, necessitating a visit from the manager to straighten things out, all while the line of waiting customers grows to three or four deep.

The only thing worse is waiting until the end of the process, then starting to rummage around in your purse for the check book that's in there. Somewhere.

Well I did My part. Had a Billing dispute with the Town Water Department. I had been in the Hospital for 2 months from Emergency Bowel Surgery and multiple complications. Then another month of rehab before I got back Home. I took them $368.37 Worth of Pennies on a hand truck. Got my Receipt and Hand Truck and left them with their Pennies. I should have busted open the rolls...
