"Rules that I find strange are gas stations that say ...no bills larger than a $20."

I have trouble with that one too considering "This note is legal tender for all debts public and private."

Maybe when the kids leave home, I get older, retire, the dog dies and I have nothing better to do I'll make an issue of it someplace.

Can you call the police and complain that they wouldn't take your money? I don't know that you'd just be free to go in this state.

If they refuse the money they are welcome to call the cops, but the cops will tell them the same thing.

This happened to a buddy of mine at the local station a few years ago.
He just left and went home and explained it to the cops when he called them. They ask if he would mind meeting him back at the station.
The cops ask him to say what happened in front of the clerk, clerk said yes, thats our policy.

Cop said.....Looks like you just gave the man a tank of gas...Thats OUR policy....lol

They have since taken that sign down.

You would have to return the gas first.
