Those few days after I come back from Vegas and I still have hundreds in my wallet are always weird. But, sadly, it's not usually enough hundreds to bother going to the bank. So I get like $97 of change from the coffee shop downstairs (the owner always knows when people have been to Vegas).

I had the opposite of this repeatedly in St. Louis. I was there several times on a lawsuit. The train into town from the airport gives change in $1 coins. No one anywhere else (at least in Detroit) has any idea what they are, so it is hard to spend them. So I took to trying to get rid of them in the airport before flying home.
This led to me offering to buy the lunch a young man in army fatigues behind me in line at a food kiosk was about to order. You know, in thanks for his service. I had 5 coins I needed to get rid of. I think the guy thought I was coming on to him.
