like a Half Cent to pay for something just to see the cashiers reaction
Personally, I look to find them, not to spend them.

I put a 1909-VDB cent into an arcade game accidently as a kid. Doh!

My buddies father ran an arcade and he would regularly pull out silver certificates from the change machine that changed dollars for tokens not to mention all the classic coins that came in and exchanged for tokens as well. This was early to mid 80's before you could play video games on your tv (just for all the yunguns that never experienced having to go to an arcade to play a video game)

What's an arcade?

PS: Actually, J/K. I may be an old guy, but at least I'm still very handsome.

You can short circuit most cashiers' brains by giving them $10.06 for a $7.31 purchase


Your evil.
