Nickel and Dimer's

I am sure I am not the only one irritated by this.

Cashier rings up $15.03. You have a $20. Cashier gives you back $4.97. Or:
  • 1 toonie
  • 2 loonies
  • 3 quarters
  • 2 dimes
  • 2 pennies
Basically a pound of useless change in your pocket. Why not a $5? Have pity on us. Please. Suck up the 35 cents total that it might cost you per day and save your customers some irritation. In fact, what a better way to say "we think of your convenience'' than to do this one little favor. I don't blame the employees - well sorta - but the bosses should have the common sense to point this out to each cashier.
