nope. now if its 3 or 4, i will. but i'll end up leaving them on the counter for others to grab (like at the 7-11's for example)
 
I wait for my receipt and the penny is usually handed over with the receipt. If I'm in a rush its a different story as I'll prolly just give the cash and keep steppin.

My guess is marketing, $99.95 appears much cheaper than $100.00. But that's just my guess.
 
not really, the dude at the gas station be taking his sweet time to get them pennies out when I buy my cigs
trying to see if i'm gonna wait for it.

i think its just a marketing trick so that your like "O this is $34 and disregard that its closer to $35"
