<p>[QUOTE="Just Carl, post: 892166, member: 4552"]I'm in Illinois. I get lousy looks all the time when trying to use those things. Actually funny looks when trying to use a Half Dollar, babby sized dollar, ikes are completely a joke to try using. I've had Metra conductors tell me never to hand them those things. They still have coin changers and none have places for those coins. At a resturant I left some of those baby sized dollars with the presidents on them for a tip. The waitress said loudly as I walked away, Sir you left some of your kids play money on the table. At Walgreens I tried to pay for a newspaper with Halves and held up the line while the cashier had to call someone to see if they were really USA coins. She would probably have taken a Peso easier. Even at Walmart a cashier told me they have no place in the register for those so don't you have some really usable money? </p><p>I've had it trying to use such coins. And I'm afraid what would happen if I tried spending a $2 bill. Who's get me out of jail?[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
