<div class="IPBDescription">buy it now! with coins.</div> Today I bought Half-life 2. I know i waited a long, and you're definitely thinking to yourself "who cares? some moron finally bought half-life 2. so what?" Yes, but i bought it with only change. Not a sigle dollar bill in the transaction. $24 in quarters, $5 in dollar coins, and $30 in dimes.
So I walked up to the check out line, put the game on the counter and when he rang me up I told him I was paying in all coins. When I showed him the bag he said "um, go to the customer service desk over there and they'll ring you up, I don't wanna hold up the lines here". So I went over to the customer service desk, and the manager rang me up and was to lazy to count, so he had some 17 yr old count it all out. I could tell he was getting tired of it by the end as he started dropping dimes a few times. Some even onto the floor. When the manager asked me "how did you get all those coins?" I just said "oh, I've just been collecting them into a bucket." That was about it. The kid was smiling at the obsurdity of the situation by the end. On my way home afterwards, I realized how much funnier it would have been if after he counted it all, right before he put it in the register, I pull out the total amount in cash. So he would have counted it all for nothing! I guess I'll have to wait for HL3 for that.

they charge 10 cents per $1
just go to your bank and ask for coin rolls, and then deposit said coin rolls.
preferably drawing a smily face on each coin before hand.
oh, and if you ever get a coin with a smily drawn in black sharpie on the face, drop me a line, it is probabyly one of mine <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

I was hungry.
And no, I had like 30 dollars or something left over after everything (sorry if that was confusing, I have a temp of 103, my brain feels like it's in a fry machine)
That's evil.

Funny, that's not even Halo2 on the screen.
Do they really do tea bagging online?
It's Halo. Close enough, right?

It doesn't have 2 in the title though.
The stupidity of Joe public is amazing.
I believe everyone aged 16-20 should have to work in retail for a bit just to see how stupid the general public are.
mcdonalds took it though.. <3

i friggen hate dealiing with customers (which are stupid)
just one example, i work at a Jiffy Lube and we did an oil change service on her vehicle, she comes back a week later claming that her dome light in her car went out and that it is our fault. I could understand that to happen if we actually touched it Even us showing her the security video of us working on her car didnt convince her, said we must have done it out side, and than she was talking about us REPLACING HER CAR (87 dodge colt i believe)
I see you haven't been working very long...
