If it was truly all you had, I would have sat in your car and counted every single coin. probably 2 or 3 times because I had lost count.

There are limits to how much change is classed as legal tender. I don't have a problem with it myself.

I was told some time ago, by a barrister no less, ( or was he a barista? ) anyway, he told me that there is no obligation for any merchant to give change at all, that the onus is on the customer to offer the correct money. We all give change as a courtesy.

Maybe that is where the little heard phrase, "keep the change" originated.

Should have kept it until you had enough change then she has to come and find you for her change.

I think I know what happened. All those years ago when Terry's mum was in labour, the midwife told her to push but she got it wrong and clenched. :wink:
