Spent $5 in halves for breakfast at Mcdonalds. Spent $15.50 in halves add dollar coins including 1 Ike at Walmart. The cashier girl picked up the Ike adn asked what it was. I told her a dollar. She lookeda the prez dollars and figured out they were a dollar as well. She counted the halves and then asked if they were a dollar. I told her no they were 50 cents. I said there is $15.50 there. She pretended to count the halves again and threw them all in the drawer. $35,421.50 to go. corrected total |

Oh man, I've probably spent over $100 in dollar coins at work in the vending machine over the past 4 years. Didn't even think to post here.
Anyway, I did just spend $10 in halves for bales of straw.
The cashier thought they were dollar coins, I had to tell her they were just 50c...
$35,372.50 to go!

I get a kick out of you guys having to tell so many clerks that they're not dollar coins when you spend halves.

I figure let them think they are dollars, for how often it will happen, it will not hurt the stores bottom line. Maybe the universe is trying to give you a break, and you are giving it back.

The CCF motto is "Education is the key to success!" Although the cashiers would be educated either way, this way no one is harmed.  |

It seems as if someone would know. Tellers never mistake them but cashiers do. The jobs are quite similar but the knowledge is not.

Tellers handle cash/money all day. Many times the cashiers I come in contact with also wait tables, so money is not their only thing.
