Sounds like you got the correct change, something the lady should be recieving praise for instead of fussing about it. If it had been a teen or 20 something clerk they most likely wouldn't have had the sense to do it and you'd have gotten screwed with too little change. If they were expected to make their till exact, so the books would balance, they would have had to pocket the extra. Most small businesses, and it is the owner of said business in this case, like their books to balance when they do them and I guarantee you they aren't staying in business by cheating themselves out of a penny or by keeping their customers change either one. If you figure a penny a day for say a hundred customers, over the course of a month, over a year and they'd be cheating themselves out of more than $360 a year. Not a very smart move in my book.
That said what does it say about the state of this country when people 'dislike' our monetary system so much they start fussing about getting the proper change. Any other time I guarantee you'd be fussing if you got to little change but here I guess you got to much, and I guess it's because you don't like pennies. Personally I've never had a problem charging every cent of what something cost me or expecting to get back every hard earned cent owed to me. That's just good business all around. Oh well, to each his own..........
