I spent a bunch of them last weekend. After a day out with the family, on the way home we stopped at the full-serve gas station (who else still has one of those?) and said fill it up. He started it up, and meanwhile I was clinking the coins in my hand, so the guy said, "Are those the gold dollars? My boss doesn't want us to take them." I was shocked. But realizing it wasn't his choice, and he was pumping gas out in the freezing weather all night, I didn't bother arguing with him. Just said, "well then stop and I will pay for what you have pumped so far. I'll talk to your manager."
