<p>[QUOTE="Pocket Change, post: 243703, member: 8012"]There's actually a coin shop around here that I don't go to. They have two prices on everything - credit card/debit card price and cash price. And there is a HUGE difference. Back when I went there, something for $25 (credit/debit price) could be had for $18.50 if you paid cash. I just thought it was really suspicious. It was way more than 5% or 10% difference.</p><p><br /></p><p>Can't resist about the wheelbarrow. I remember Business Law in High School. One day we talked about "tendering" payment. Apparently, people would go to a movie theatre really early, offer a $100 bill to pay and the cinema didn't have change. Technically, the cinema had to let them in because they had "tendered" payment. </p><p>Anyway, therei is the LETTER of the law and the INTENT of the law. If Dak's case of giviing $25 in pennies to a pizza delivery boy went to court, it could very well be that the pizza delivery boy is right to refuse and not give the pizzas. Because it is not normal that a pizza delivery boy should have to take a bag of pennies as payment - much less count them while standing on the steps outside the door.</p><p><br /></p><p>I'm not a lawyer and please don't nail me for wrong vocabulary or whatever.
