<p>[QUOTE="toddestan, post: 158787, member: 6366"]That's might be ok if everyone priced everything in tenths of a cent, and everyone went along with the idea that two quarters is a half dollar and nothing else. But, what if something cost $x.60 or $x.70 and you had 3 quarters? There is no way for you to get those combinations from just quarters, and without a 5 cent coin, no way to make change either. Same if someone priced something at $x.25 and all you had were 3 dimes. Ditto for combinations such as $x.35 and $x.45 which you would have to have the exact combination of dimes and quarters to reach.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
