I fight for even a penny. Twisted Evil

But I tip generously, when they do a good job. It's nice to see their delighted face when you tip.

One thing I've always noticed about cashiers here is its so easy to confuse them unless you give them the exact amount.

For example if the bill is 5200W, and you give them 10200W, they are lost. They don't get that you're simply doing it to get a straight 5000W change. Instead, they will hand you back the 200W and then give you 4800W change. Increasing the number of coins that you have to carry.


I've noticed this now and then, but I've also had a few cashiers ask me from time to time "do you have the extra 100 won?" or whatever is needed to make the change easier.

I've never been short changed in the several years I've been here.
