Wife: Where's the cat?
C.C. : Haven't seen him since Loomis made their last penny delivery
Wife : Find that cat or I'll take your copper back to the bank for face value!!!
C.C. : NO!!! I'll get 10 ryedales going and I'll find that blasted cat!!

Went to the restaurant today, the bill was 24.21, and I get 75 cents back, I walk out of the place grumbling about not getting my pennies, and I guess it fit right in with the Canadian rounding methodology as being the correct change.

Of course when that vehicle dies you won't be able to scrap it until the melt
ban is lifted. Also it's illegal to drive it out of the U.S.A.! :-o Might be sketchy
if you need to drive up to Alaska, Canada is in the way. ;)

Heh, whenever my Mom pays cash, she fiddles with the change in her purse and tries to make exact change and get rid of it. I have to quickly jump in and get that straightened out, "NO NO NO NO, pay with just the bills so I can get change back!"

I usually go through the tip jar at my favorite restaurant.

I take out all the copper pennies and all the nickels, replacing the value of the coins I'm swapping. I also add a dollar to their tip jar, I'm not completely evil...

They know and accept that I have a coin problem. :p

Tip jar? What a great idea. :)
