But if it's say 5.17 you're probably not going to hand them a tenner if possible: a fiver and then "let me see if I have the 17". Sometimes cashiers will ask you to give them the odd cents so they don't have to give you back notes. It's all about, I believe, when it's convenient for them too, when you're helping them. That's how it is here anyway.
Not at Walmart. That's the only place I've run a register before but yeah they definitely expect every penny to be in the till. I'm guessing most corporations are the same way. The Korean broad that runs the little corner store by my house here will do **** like that to shave a penny or two off and pretend she's giving you some kind of good deal while you spend 9$ on a pack of cigs.
