Message:: [QUOTE="Drago the Wolf, post: 778983, member: 22476"]You forget, in the begining of this thread, I suggested that most, if not all vending machines, especially self checkouts, SHOULD be updated to accept AND dispense both, $2 bills (but REDESIGNED $2 bills, okay?) and half dollar coins. If vending machines spit out $2 bills or halves at people every day, both denominations will circulate, and I would love to see a redesigned half dollar coin and $2 bill circulating. The problem is, neither vendors nor cashiers are using these two denoms, and if they did, I think it would be a bit more conveinient. As for the "No space in the cash register for $2s and halves" nothing could be further from the truth. Most cash drawers have five (5) slots for coins, and five slots for bills. The coin section was supposed to go: 1c, 5c, 10c, 25c, and 50c, and the bill section is supposed to be set up: $1, $2, $5, $10, $20. If anything, $50 and $100 bills, and if a higher denomination is ever issued THEY do not have a slot in the cash register, unless you count, under the $20s. I do know that there are some four (4) slot cash registers. I have seen them, so, those would have a problem. But hey, just upgrade to a five slot register.[/QUOTE]
