Rolled coins. There worth nothing when rolled!?!

By Tom Gilliatt

Today I went to Kwik Fill at the corner of Jackson st and Ellicott to get some smokes man I hate when I have to go in there for various reasons and now I can add this one to the list.

I asked if I could get a pack of cigarettes and pay for them with my 5$ rolled dimes

NOPE with an attitude is all I got. I kept my cool and left

Attitude in that place is common and I would like to know is the legal for them to not take the dimes as money? I would go to a different store but I'm picky and the brand of cigs and yes I know I should quit. I never seen any sign that says "your rolled money is worth nothing to us"

 

Wow this burns my hide and like I said I wish I never ever had to goto that store... If you want to call it THAT.

I worked in retail back in high school and we weren't allowed to take rolled coins as well. They business is worried that you are sticking slugs into the package. We were able to count out $5 worth of dimes, but couldn't if it were rolled.
If you want to tick somebody off, bring in a bag of pennies and make the person that gave you an attitude count them out.
Money is money and they have to take it.
