Trouble paying with coins?

<p>[QUOTE="Animosity, post: 1145727, member: 30060"]I was just curious if anybody has had any trouble paying for anything with coins? I usually don't pay with coins, but there is the occasion I only have coins and I need to buy something, in the past tellers have usually been more than happy to get extra coins in their till, sure, sometimes I get cashiers that seem unhappy with having to count the coins, but typically it's never been a problem. Even if I come in with a few rolls of something it's never been a problem. Well today I went to Fred Meyer (Known as Kroger as some of you I'm sure), anyway, I went up to the customer service counter to give him two rolls of dimes and he called his manager over there, and she told me some story about how they couldn't accept rolled coins because it throws off their till. Now let me stop the story here for a minute and correct me if I'm wrong, but whenever I've counted down a till I've always counted the change as well and that was added to the total of the till, and I'm under the impression this is standard practice for any business. Back to the story, back and forth for a few minutes and I decided to just give up on it, went and got a few items from the store and paid the next cashier with the dimes, which he had no problem with. Anyway, I was just curious if anybody else has had any problems while trying to pay with or exchange change.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
