In canada isnt it difficult to chashier because of the two extra coin values?!?!?
Im a chashier in washington and I was thinking about since canadians use loonies and toonies for one dollar and two dollar values… isnt that annoying to manage at the register?
100 "one dollar" coins VS 100 "one dollar" bills?
Doest anyone else see what i mean?
rofl. I might get a job in canada because im goin there for college and im wondering how different its goin to be working with canadian money. When im used to the coins being only cent value.
umm ok…
i never said id have difficulty knowing what value they are ..
and they dont really make our dollar coins anymore … dont you know? i work at a DOLLAR STORE and ive seen 2 of those coins in the passed two months. i just set them aside with the coin rolls because we dont have an extra slot in the register for dollar coins.rofl.
PS: Its called an off campus study permit
DOH!
Some people *rolls eyes*
Thanks anyways…for trying..
First of all, the United States has a dollar coin too! What do you do if you get one of those while you’re working the register in the U.S.?
Second of all, do you *honestly* think you would have a hard time remembering that a dollar coin is worth a dollar, when you currently seem to have no trouble at all remembering that a 25 cent coin is worth 25 cents or a five cent coin is worth five cents? Really — it can’t be that difficult to figure out.
You also may not be able to get a job in Canada, being an American citizen who’s only in the country temporarily. If you’re counting on your wages to pay some of your tuition, you’d better look into this *very* carefully.
No - it’s no different, in my opinion, to give someone 1.37 in change, in coins, or in a bill plus coin.
As a bonus, it’s nice opening the change part of your wallet, and finding that you have 20+ dollars in coin!
They don’t have nickels, dimes quarters or dollar coins in Washington?
toonies and loonies are exactly the same as $1 and $2 dollar bills = just made in a different form that all.
You wait until Canada and Usa eventually decides to dump the pennies. It costs almost 2 pennies to MAKE one penny.
New Zealand dumped its pennies waaaaaay back in 1990 - thats 18 years ago. And things are just so much better. In 2006 they also dumped their 5 cent coins - what you call a nickel. Now everything in cash is rounded to the nearest 10 cents.
A number of other countries have also dumped their smaller coins as no longer having any monetary value
